    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!

    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……..)
