When I look back on this month it will be the amount of money given out that I'll remember, the car was mostly responsible costing 1k to get repairs last week, plus another £100 tomorrow, then there is the MOT to look forward to on Tuesday and further juicy expenses possibly. I hang on to cars too long, until they get really expensive to maintain, this one was bought 11 years ago and has been a good companion over the years, but maybe a parting of the ways will have to happen in the next little while.
The month started off with a couple of booze-free days, then I was at doctor for a couple of things, will be put on a huge long waiting list to look into a couple of lesions that I cannot be bothered going into here. That same day I was at a whisky evening in the Crown and the boozing continued for most of month with a day off here or there. I managed my steps targets, the main one of getting 200K steps was fairly easily reached, over 270K now and should have been more, but for my laziness once target achieved. Also made another, harder, target spread over last couple of months, that the app set me, but this one involved a few long walks, including from North Queensferry, Stenhouse reservoir etc, also my Auchtertool loop was done, so every month this year so far. Weather mostly been ok, so that helped.
Also gave out money for a new leather sofa, the one I have now is about 26 years old and has done it's duty, will be collected on 4 August if it can be forced out the flat, not looking forward to that challenge. Might be sofaless for a few days before new one- a black leather recliner 3 seater arrives. Well, it was about time, there is a wear hole in middle of the old one.
Not inspired today at all, maybe I should not wait until last minute to update?
Oh, almost forgot I saw Charles and Camilla in Kirkcaldy at start of month, was the most horrible rainy day too, they were there to commemorate centenary of Kirkcaldy War Memorial, near the station. Got soaked that day!
