Woo hoo! I'm smiling because I've finally managed to cancel a two-year German mobile contract that has been a thorn in my side. Stupid thing hardly ever worked but because of iron-clad German contract rules, I had to let it run the two years and THEN cancel it. Took me two hours today of trying to find my ID number then sifting through the Mobilcom website to find out how to cancel a contract (funnily enough it's easy to find the button to EXTEND a contract). Then they made me sit on a phone call for 30 minutes to talk to a human but...
...ding, dong, the wicked contract is DEAD!
Now I'm going to use that EUR10 a month on something I'll actually use and enjoy, like a sub to Photoshop. Or brownies.

Rory looks very comfortable up there. Happy wanderings 
Just think he can enjoy ice creams, sweets, drinks etc. and enjoy the view. Not 100% sure your OH is that impressed though...

My visit to Tesco made me smile today!
It's not often I'd say that, even pre Covid 19.
They had gin reduced, so I thought 'Silly not to really ' and put a bottle in my trolley. Picked up some more essential items and as I was heading to the checkout I spotted gardening gloves, so they went in as well, as mine had holes in. The woman at the checkout was probably about my age and as she was about to scan the gloves she pointed out that there was only one and said she'd get someone to fetch the other. I said not to bother it was going to cause any problems as they weren't that important, but she said it was no bother and summoned a young lad to get them.She then resumed scanning, the next item being the gin. I said, 'That's about all there is to do at the moment, gardening and drinking gin!' She laughed and asked if I actually drink gin while gardening! I said 'Not so far, but it's a thought!' Then added 'Actually if I did, I'd only need one gardening glove anyway, you don't need a glove on your gin drinking hand!' We were both laughing at this when the lad came back with a complete pair of gloves and she called to him ' No need after all love, the lady's going to be drinking gin while she gardens so she only needs one glove!' The poor boy's face was a picture!
A sense of humour is a great blessing in these times!

This is Nathan's ball. It was in a toy box (with a lid on) in his room. I heard "that" trot across the floor and knew she'd found something she shouldn't have 
Of course she came to show me. Looking pretty happy with herself...

Ooooh yes we are! It's more of very fast tippy tap and if we round the corner and catch him he jumps sideways through the doorway and runs the other way. The look on his face is priceless and I have to get it on video
