Perhaps - I have a vague memory that the reason I didn't cancel it last time was because I couldn't figure out how to! Will check through the bank.

Pretty good!
I put some washing on this morning, but the weather is all over the place. I can't decide whether to peg it out to take advantage of the sun and wind, or keep it in to avoid the showers! Might risk pegging it out - the sky is pretty blue at the minute...3 -

Yep, just cancelled it through the banking app - which makes me wonder why on earth I didn't do it before! 🙄
Washing out, and I think most of it will be nicely dry soon 😊
It was nice while I was out (albeit windy!) so I retrieved the recycling bin from the top of the drive, and picked a big jug full of damsons. Not sure what I'll do yet - there are still plenty on the tree.
Made some pear pancakes (just a thick batter with grated pears from a friend's tree), and topped with some of my homemade gooseberry jam from last year 😊 Made me all excited about preserving again 😊
Meeting a friend for an online chat in half an hour, so I might go and retrieve the washing before then, and pick some sage to dry. 😊4
