Hello all - happy Friday
Ally, hope the delivery turns up on time; enjoy the usual Friday evening
Jan, yes to the grub for the coffee morning; that will be missed - as for the cleaning; well it's all only going to get messy again, so don't overdo it

Oh Cruiser, that's a pity about the butcher; it really is sad that so many smaller independent shops keep closing. And not just here in the UK; my family in Germany say it's the same over there. The smaller establishments just cannot compete from a financial and red tape point

Osc, enjoy the ball and safe travels home. I'm the same and really don't like driving longer distances late at night. Safe travels home
Jen, hope you get all the washing sorted - perfect weather for outside drying!
I'm at Karl and Nadine's this morning. They're both at work and today were having smart meters installed, so asked if I could hang around whilst it was being done. Super efficient service, lovely chap turned up on time, cracked on and is nearly done. And it's not the easiest house to work in because the meters are in odd places and the boiler up in the loft... rather him than me
Off to Sainsbury's on my way home, neighbours are popping over for dinner - we're doing vegan burgers and chips; so I need to pick up the bits and bobs for that. Then home to clean; then vet appointment this evening and then home and relax and have said dinner
Have a lovely day all x
