    bought a shît load of T-shirts last year in the end of summer sale of my fave label . Just opened the box of them now and I love them. Perfect fit, nice style and so comfy…. Badly needed too as just binned so much old stuff. Probably do the same again this year for next.

    traffic… there was none… made it out to Swords in 20 minutes and back in roughly the same. Maybe because the Dubs were playing but on a Sunday it’s usually about 35 minutes…

    The youngest of my cats (now five years old) is sitting beside me on the bed, purring like mad and tapping me on the shoulder with his paw, looking for affection and head scratchies.

    TH to see all of the videos of the World Cup fans having a blast in Mexico and USA, especially the Scots in Boston.

    After an hour twenty-five minutes on hold on a queue with a government department (thankfully, no painful holding muzak!), the person who eventually replied transferred me to someone who could help me and in less than five minutes that person had resolved the issue for me and made herself available in case I needed further help. 10 out of 10 for customer service.

    Love that! I was onto the passport office last week and was 32 in the queue.. 6 minutes later, someone answered and gave me good news! Was more than TH!

    Don't you hate the end of the the weekend? That's how I felt an hour ago. And a colleague in our small department is off until Thursday!

    But…something feels off. Oh…it's only Sunday, not Monday!! 😎

    Yesterday my lovely cat did something else that impressed me greatly. I was sitting on the edge of the bed. She jumped up and sat beside me, purring. She tapped me on the shoulder a couple of times, I thought she wanted cuddles, but when I turned to look at her, while she was looking straight at me she brought her paw to her nose and rubbed it twice. I took it she asked me to scratch her face. Cat sign language, if you will. Isn't she a genius? She also allows me to rub her belly and hold and massage her paws, which I consider a great honour.

    I often buy books from the charity shop, read them once and then give them to my parents to read or else my mother will bring them to her ladies club or sports club each of which has a bookshelf/sharing library. TH that she told me one of the ladies in her ladies club is really enjoying one of the books I gave her a few weeks ago and insisted that my mother reads it after her 😁

    shop and detour back by the park. My favourite bench underneath the shade of the big tree was free and just landed myself there for 45 minutes. got comfy so relaxation was more appealing than my planned exercising. Enjoyed a bar of Miilka and refreshing cold drinks with my favourite tunes on the headphones…. Some familiar faces exchanging hellos etc but nobody I really knew so my peace and solitude wasn’t interrupted….sometimes that’s nice. Perfect weather, had cooled to warm but comfortable. 😎… and I remembered the sunscreen. 👌 🧴

    Nice and cool this evening. Won't be sweatin like a pig passing a butchers.

    I know if the wallet I ordered off company A doesn’t turn up.. as I’m guessing it might not, a ‘stock processing error’ that the business is trying to resolve…the exact same one is in a nearby Best menswear shop and they have 3 in stock in and loads in their other shops too…
