My weekend was great. Dinners out, escape room, a hike in Surrey and too many hours of real housewives. It was bliss.

Do you ever do online shopping and you’re at the check out looking at your basket and you just stop and think ‘what am I doing? I don’t need this.’ and just close your browser? I do this often.
