Do you ever come home from a long day and excitedly decide to treat your inner child to a bacon bap and chips only to have your inner adult guilt you into adding runner beans — then to have your inner teenager rebelliously peer pressure you into a glass of wine as well?

Update. Love my new home-but getting used to the sounds has been interesting. Exp. My neighbour just belched so loud I heard it through the wall! I just couldn’t help but audibly laugh. 😂

First full day, first glasses found, first glass in my new home. As the glasses were my grandfather Frasier's, seems fitting to sip with the portrait of his Gt Grandfather.
Cheers to new chapters! A TBH I am completely knackered.

We fight to give hope — a reminder that there are still those within the government standing up for what’s right. Since Saturday, we’ve faced relentless attacks. We know there will be consequences for our actions, but we will not back down.
