    Our car is 13 years old and we need to manually do ours too.

    I have sorted the 4 of the 5 items I have sold (£45 tyvm).. I cannot find the shoes I sold.. I am sre they will turn up but I am restacking everything so I have like things in each box.. just doing the box of dresses and there are several I KNOW I listed but are not showing on my account. I did wonder why they had not sold.

    it is another large box out of the back room though reshuffling and I am charity shopping as I go so it is reducing in mountain.

    Morning all.  Happy Easter.

    The sun is breaking through the mist here.  I've done dailies, a short dog walk and hoovered through.  I had planned to do gardening today but it seems both Poppet and I CBA.  DH is visiting his mum.

     I am going to read a book.


    Spend less now, work less later.

    Lovely old church by the way and a very nice flower arrangement.

      
    @Cloth_of_Gold yes it's a very old church https://hunsdonchurch.org/a-history-of-st-dunstans-church/ 1086 a priest was there according to the Domesday book.     It 's a pity we only use it for part of the year (from Remembrance Sunday until Easter we use the village school as it is warmer).
    Remember...a layer of dust protects the wood beneath it.
