A day of highlights, like getting back to my mini strolls and meeting neighbours I haven't met in ages. But the biggest highlight was meeting this guy!

Our current Book Club read.
Approx 300 pages to read by Friday morning.
One chapter in and so far I have to say it seems, well, simply...... marvellous!
That'll help make the reading speedy.....right?! 📚

Another sign that 'Tis the season!
A tradition of mine.
Usually includes a bar of Frys Chocolate Cream.
Instead I had to make do with a bar of Butlers Caramel.
I mean, the sacrifices I make! 😋

Wonka is released this weekend. I've given it 5 🌟
I've often been asked what it would take for me to give a fim 5 🌟? Well now you know.
Here's my review. I urge you to go see it. Bring the family. It is a tonic for these times.

Wonka - "Come with me and you'll be in a world of pure imagination"
5 out of 5 Ever since Gene Wilder brought Roald Dahl’s iconic character to life, legions of fans have been captivated by his sugar-coated world of pure imagination. There’s just something alluring...

No matter how good the opening couple dance it's hard to get 10s it seems.
Always seem to mark low every week

'There's evil in this room' said the Judge when Puska was found guilty.
Hope the sentence reflects that.
There was evil in the US too bit unfortunately no just sentence for the Martens 😢

I'm worried about Angela & Carlos. Judges hard on them
Didn't deserve less marks than Krishnan & Lauren.
Surprised yet not to see Angela R in the dance off though
