The last bank holiday Monday of the year – that doesn’t sound good does it? But at least we got some decent weather for it. As we launch head first into our 8th year of marriage, yet another month comes to a close and we have lots to look forward to in September. But beforeContinue reading “DAY 167 – 31 August 2020”
