I've painted my toenails!! I'm going on holiday tomorrow and at the ripe old age of 59 decided I'm going to wear nail varnish for the first time! And they look great.

Anyone else?

Cried to a traffic warden in a car park.

Drove to Dalton Park. It's not actually that far really (about 20 miles?) but I've never driven there before. I tend not to drive to new places very often. We made it despite the confusing roadworks!
Bought a tin opener from ProCook whilst there. We did buy a few other things from other places, but not visited any branches of ProCook before, so hoping that shop visit counts too.

Hired a DIY carpet cleaner. Can't wait to get my old rug looking half decent again. Sad I know.

Bought a pack of crunchie ice creams 😋

Took my toddler granddaughter on her first picnic.We went to a park with a great play park and duck pond. She loved it.

Visited 221B Baker Street 😊

What was it like? I often go past and see queues and want to shout "he's not real" as I go by! I am a big Sherlock Holmes fan though

Edited

Interesting that you decided Shagslam was such a better name than Flirthouse that you went to the effort of editing your post 😅

Created a snack basket as I'm sick of constantly being asked for snacks throughout the day, now when it's done, it's done and won't get refilled until tomorrow.

Heard that my 12 year old DD voluntarily asked to have lettuce in her chicken sandwich. A minor miracle.

Had an initial interview for a new job whilst WFH at my current job! It was during a 15min break but it over ran a bit, don't think they noticed though 😬

@RobertSalamander I visited Flirthouse but didn't subscribe cause Shagslam looked better - hence the edit. Do you use any?

Told a scammer on the phone to fuck off, stop trying to con hard-working businesses and get a proper job.

Well done! You spoke for us all 😁

Went on a giant swing over a quarry. I hate heights but did it with DS2. Hated every second but ridiculously proud of myself for managing.

Hosting a teenage sleepover.

Please rescue me.

My DS recently had a couple of friends over for a sleepover, they all.slept in a tent in the garden. Highly recommend!
