  2. Put the Iceland delivery away.
  3. A Choco Leibniz biscuit. Okay, two. Tonight I’m ‘making’ cauliflower cheese (i.e. heating up a rapidly defrosting bag of ready-made, as the downstairs neighbours had let the Iceland man in and didn’t realise I hadn’t heard the door 😬)
  4. My friend from work, to whinge about said delivery mishap.
  5. If we’re talking the last different city/country, Gran Canaria in September; due to go to Barcelona in May (fingers crossed!) In literal terms, the last place I went was Wormwood Scrubs (the recreation ground, not the prison!) for a walk. Next place will probably be another park.
  6. A potted orchid for my mother for Mother’s Day. New blinds for my bedroom.
  7. Emmerdale.

All this posting entirely irrelevant drivel in AIBU definitely has the same energy as those people who think it’s fine to stop anywhere on a road, including double yellows, as long as they put their hazards lights on 🙄
