Can you change your route home so it doesn't go near the liquor store?
that's wonderful, congratulations!
The UK does a "bike to work" scheme, you get an interest free loan from your employer that is repaid directly from your salary before your tax is deducted, so it reduces your tax bill every month. The loan money can be spent at any bike shop on any bike that meets the criteria. It's extremely popular and works well.
Getting off work early is a thing to celebrate, so how about a celebratory non-alcoholic drink?
England women pulled it back from an absolutely disastrous start and beat Pakistan. Cricket is quite easy to understand, honest. 😁
Went to the Life in the Roman Legion exhibition at the British Museum, which was excellent, then lunch in a nearby Italian restaurant and home watching the cricket (England women v Pakistan women, it's not going well for England).
Hope you're better soon.
Hurrah, I was wondering how it went yesterday. Excellent hosting, those people.
woohoo, do you have something fun planned?
Yay!
