    Declaring a Spend Day Monday, so keeping at 25/20 ;) Babyface needs some items for ramp repairs and sealing and I'm also popping into a lovely local bathroom showroom to see if I can get 2 specific items that I need to be replaced in the bathroom at a discounted price ;) I'm a terror for discounts, but no harm in asking and I'm always very polite :D
