An early call for today please.
Yesterday wasn't one as my son bought his friend a yoyo and I reimbursed him, he was getting one with his own money but his friend didn't have enough. It was only a small spend.
We did have a lovely cost effective day out, using an annual ticket and taking a picnic.
Today will be spent catching up for returning to school and work tomorrow 🙃
