    Not one for me today. Treating my parents to afternoon tea and buying my dad a card. Need petrol so may go mad and buy a chocolate bar as well. 🤗

    Today is an unexpected NSD, so that's me at 6/10. I did go for a coffee with a friend this morning but she paid for us both. It'll be my turn next time but it gives me another May NSD.
