    Community fridge sounds awesome! 
    I am loving Olio lately, although it's limited where I live. It's nice to get some free surprise foods sometimes and find ways to incorporate them into your meals.

    It's brilliant, and very similar to Olio in that they collect surplus from supermarkets and people can also donate surplus food as well e.g. home grown veg etc.  Olio here seems to be mostly bread, but I do have a look now and again.  I'll aim to use it more often now I know where it is.

    It's nice to have a day off on a Monday!  Back to work tomorrow but only a 3 day week and I'm off next week.

    Kids want to go swimming today so I've booked that in and can use that as today's exercise.  DH is working so hopefully when we get back I can get on with some stuff around the house.

    I caught up with surveys yesterday, but mostly screened out due to leaving them so long.
