RTBC - I've just had a rather naughty online spending spree at Debenhams. They had a one day 50% off sale on my favourite brand for tops. Got a bit carried away in the end, but I'm saving so much money being stuck at home, I thought I might as well enjoy it!
I've tried only frog's legs out of that lot and to quote another cliche, they tasted like chicken😊 @""Papi Jo" I can remember being on holiday in Ireland as a child. The children there would collect buckets of frogs ( buckets???. I seem to have misremembered that bit!) and sell them to some French bloke.

My second RTBC is that I will shortly be attending a big birthday party of a friend tonight, via t’internet - subject to the signal holding up, might be a fuzzy event in more ways than one. 🥂
