    Ante I hope you catch up with your sleep.   I haven’t been to the city in a long time.  I mainly shop online, although it’s good to try things on.  LB/Hazel I had a couple of hours then continuing with Lily’s tv.  I’m just having a cuppa in between washes.

    Just done my 6 monthly trip to F@rmf##ds.  4 packs of 18 toilet rolls, 4 x 85 wash comfort, 2 x 130 wash boxes of soap powder,  2x 3 packs of kitchen rolls and a  5L bottle of fairy liquid....along with a couple of bits and bobs.  £51 ....with a voucher for £5 off if you spend £50. Should keep me going for a while. Last time I stocked up was before lockdown and the voucher runs out tomorrow.

    LB I hate shopping for that sort of thing and buying it in  bulk saves quite a bit of money.....plus the money off voucher.  I have a spare cupboard in the office/spare bedroom that I keep it in. The washing up liquid and softener are decanted into smaller bottles to use and the washing powder is put into a swing bin lined with a strong plastic bag, a box at a time.

    I think you did brilliantly Pauline as even before this year I have bought stuff in bulk. Things like shampoos, deodorants, shower gel, toothpaste etc. and cream bars as I can't use soap, but they are smallish and can be stashed into handy corners.

    Afternoon everyone,
    Thank you for OH's medal! 🤗  They were tricky ones LB, but good fun. 

    Had another awful nights sleep last night, woke up with a headache......which I still have, but not so bad and a crick in my neck....which had now gone after putting a heat pad thing on it....its like a long filled sausage thing that you heat up in the microwave. Thankfully it wasn't too bad and is now ok.  Getting fed up with the on and off headaches now. 

    Hope you feel better Ante. 
    Time for a cup of tea

    Afternoon all,  A bit tired today, haven't done much apart from feeding and watering pots and birds.   I think it feels really Autumnal now and I thinks it's getting me down a bit or maybe it's just Secondborn's situation.  I think it's a bit worse not having hubby to chat to about things.  I'm sure it will all work out in the end.  Enjoy your evening everyone.
