  • Sorry I have been MIA - Real life took over as hubby has been in the hospital since mid-June and I've been spending a lot on fuel and car parking charges.

    I'd like to re-join for August with a target of 15 please - today is one for me as I am not physically visiting today, we are going to have a video call instead :)

    @LittleMissDetermined so sorry you've been through such a tough time and I hope your husband recovers quickly. You don't really need to count fuel or hospital parking charges, though obviously it's up to you. I hope this month is easier for you xxx :)
