Was really great to attend the "Women’s Health in Greater Manchester: A Showcase of Policy, Research, Voice & Action" yesterday. Was great to hear from researchers, clinicians, and policy leads across GM who are working on and dealing with these issues.

Got our new record player set up yesterday. A Pro-Ject Debut EVO 2, sounds great. So far I've listened to Rod Stewart, Blossoms, the Killers and Pink Floyd

Attempting to replace the rug in our lounge and cleaning at same time. So far about 20% done and I've managed to smash a trophy and then stick my hands together with superglue when trying to fix it. Not going well
