@maman wishing you a lovely holiday
10/20 please. A first for me, I had a really stressful day, I did not think about buying a bottle of wine, but, instead booked a work call for the evening to clear something that needed doing. so 10/20 but really proud of eveningMade it to mortgage free but what a muddle that became
In the event the proverbial hits the fan then co-habitees are better stashing their cash than being mortgage free !!5 -
6/20 today please @cathybird - thank you.5

10/10 please for yesterday Wednesday.Thank you @r@redofromstart - hope that works as I can’t seem to get rid of the first @r! We were away a lot in March, April and May and I am dreadful at getting back to normal service after a holiday. I’ve usually so enjoyed the wine every night and nibbles that I just continue. Piles on weight as well as far too much alcohol so must try harder when we go away in September!4

Jellybaby said:Fabulous 👏 @Watty1
12 for me please. I never thought fizzy (or should I say sparkling 😁) water would be my new tipple. And if I really want to push the boat out I add some posh cordial! (Mother was chucking it out and being MSE and all……..)Now a gainfully employed bassist again - WooHoo!6 -
Well done 👏 @Watty1
12/28 for me today please. I added some not very posh cordial to my fizzy (oops, sparkling) water tonight.
Has anyone tried the Fevertree Tonic with Clementine - it's gorgeous. A definite treat.What would you get if all you got was what you were thankful for?6 -
