This is the first UK banknote I've received that has King Charles on it. I might keep it as a souvenir. I still haven't seen any King Charles lll coins yet.

The joys of #MS. Woke up with a large black bruise on my hand. I can't remember knocking it. My lymphocytes are low on #Mavenclad. I always bruised easily but it's worse on the MS drugs.

This sad tree was our companion at the pub this afternoon. We were tempted to run home for some more baubles. But we had a great time. Happy Christmas all.

Very disappointed with my #QualityStreet box. Dull wrappers (except the green one) & the purple brazil nut toffee is tiny!

Merry Christmas. As we were so poorly for 3 weeks, we had to buy the only tree left at our local florists. Smaller than our usual tree, but it smells divine.

Look what I found inside my #Sainsburys egg box. #White shelled eggs. I haven't seen those since my childhood. I know certain breeds produce white shells, but most supermarket eggs are pale brown.

Pete Wicks' looks fit the #ArgentineTango perfectly. He has zero dance experience & is what #Strictly is all about.

This is why we need a revolution here in the UK if they ever try to bring in USA style healthcare.

Really pissed off with #Paypal. I bought expensive fairy lights. I received cheap plastic tat that looks NOTHING like advert. Paypal have decided I have to return to Australia for refund. Fraudulent ad, but I have to pay return post cost!
Do NOT buy from #TwinklingTree.

My niece has a new ragdoll kitten. I'll be offering to catsit. Often.

I am such an idiot. I bought christmas lights from an Insta advert by #TwinklingTree. Of course it's a scam. The plastic tat they sent looks nothing like the advert. I'm now asking Paypal to force scam vendor to pay return post to Australia (they used .co.uk to fool me).

Yet again I've been taken in by a #dropShopping scam on social media. I emailed the 'London' shop named 'Watson' to find out why my 'UK' goods hadn't arrived- they're clearing customs. So annoying when they use a UK domain & then send cheap goods from China.

I've spent ages trying to find a new series on #Netflix or #Disney. I feel extremely stupid. When I was browsing #TheBear I genuinely thought it meant Series 3 was coming tomorrow, not that Episode 1 was titled 'tomorrow' so ignored it.🙁 But at least I now have an entire Series to watch.

I'm so looking forward to #MarkRylance in #TheMirrorandTheLight this evening. But I wish the schedulers didn't put it on at same time as #GoneFishing. There are so few decent programmes on #BBC these days.

Muttley isn't the slightest bit bothered by all the loud fireworks blasting outside. Thankfully. Maybe it's because he's half Bassett Hound & is genetically bred to tolerate hunting guns? I do feel for all the #Doggies that are terrified by the loud bangs.

Morning showdown. The beautiful ginger #MaineCoone cat won. Muttley tried to act 'brave' but we had to cross the road to get home. Cat 1 - Dog 0.
