Extra Easy Days Trefoil's Trip To Target!

@Trefoil - Ruth, no space at all in our flat to have an undercounter :( Bristol is crazy expensive for rent, and with me not working full-time, it was a stretch to move anyway! We have a flat in a Georgian property, which is big, but the kitchen is part of the open plan living room. We may be able to juggle things a bit to put a small freezer in somewhere once we have everything sorted, but I'm not holding my breath!

I know how it is with expensive rents, Harrogate is the same! Bristol is so lovely so I'm not surprised the rents are high! I'm sure you will get something sorted soon! Have a lovely evening :)

Hair looks lovely Ruth! I've got a side fringe too and it's easy to manage- I just have to watch out for it getting too long or I look like Kevin from Kevin & Perry lol..
And nice to get birthday treats :) Hope you've had a good day! X

Thank you my dear! I'm just not used to it, thank goodness I wear glasses so it can sit on top of the frames for the meantime! Cor I haven't watched Kevin and Perry for years- although I'm sure you don't look like that! My day has been good yet busy, very pleased to have finished work!
How are you doing?

Breakfast was bacon medallions, eggs, mushrooms and light mayo. I also had a coffee. Munched my way through a punnet of sable grapes and a box of cherries on the train as well as a massive filter coffee from Starbucks that I picked up when we got on the cross country train at Leeds Station.
I got some lovely bits for my birthday! Including these babies from my OH!

Hello @TamaraAbi I hope that you're well and thank you for your kind words and happy birthday for two days time!
Topimarate has worked wonders for me- my migraines were debilitating and were almost hemiplegic when I was younger so my face used to droop but it's a rarity that I get them now, I hope that you manage to settle down a bit more with it for your epilepsy, my OH is on Lamotrigine and Carbemazepine for his epilepsy (he has grand mal) and used to also be on Leviteracetam/Keppra but unfortunately it didn't agree with him.
I'm hoping to be able to control my weight properly and I know that maintenance is going to be really hard as the tablets are so unpredictable but it's a challenge and my quality of life is so much better so I'm going to go for it! Do you have a diary or anything?
Hope you've had a lovely day

So...
It didn't take 45 mins to get to Cheltenham in fact around 2 mins after I posted the train was cancelled at Birmingham as the central locking doors broke. So we had to get off and board a train to Cardiff, from there we got off at Cheltenham and went to Stroud.
Staying with OHs dad and partner which is lovely, we walked around 1.5 miles into Stroud from their house, had a drink (Gin and Slimline Tonic for me!) then a meal out at an Italian where I had a large salad with avocado, mozzarella and homemade pesto for starters followed by chicken stuffed with brie, wrapped in Parma ham with a jus and mixed veg and sautéed potatoes with a large glass of red wine. All gluten free. I tell you now- I would never have made these choices before...
What a wonderful day!!!
