    Still using my trusty clippers for hair, no queues no hassle no cost just free buzzing all the way...oops...and the occasional Mohican! ?☹️

    My home hair-dresser (on the side) recommended hair clippers yonks ago and I never looked back!! Great VFM.

    Today didn't fancy braving the crowds so went to 'Lush' at a train station, so not heaving. Helpful as ever and some nice forthcoming bath nites !

    Enjoy your fancy baths @fluffycat :) And the idea of a cat pram is adorable! Has your cat been enjoying it?

    I finally bought myself a new phone, which is my biggest treat in a long time. My previous one packed up, so I'd been using my housemate's old work phone for the last 5 months or so ? It only arrived yesterday so I'm looking forward to finishing getting my settings and stuff sorted tonight and tomorrow.

    Thanks, ‘puss’ often sits on edge of bath and intrigued by bath bombs etc.

    (Enj. phone. Have so many personalised adjustments.)

    Not sure if meowing from pleasure or displeasure LOL.

    Anybody going coodgy goo would get a paw swipe LOL!

    I'm not sure Puss would enjoy getting in the bath, but I can imagine it's interesting for them to look at @fluffycat!

    I will, thanks. There are so many settings! I used a Smart Switch feature that allowed me to move over stuff from my old phone, but there are additional things I need to sort.

    @Sandy_123 Ooh nice!  I bet you feel like a new woman! I'm counting down the days to my hair appointment, and so are my greys  :D  

    Yesterday I bought a pregnancy, birth and beyond book to try and equip myself for what lies ahead a bit better.  Looking forward to reading it and making notes... gulp!

    @Cher_Scope

    That reminds me...on Top Gear they mentioned that you get an instruction manual with anything vaguely technical like a food blender or a laptop, but when you get a baby - which is pretty complicated - you don’t get anything! :D
