    we also had a visit from the us airforce too - this is a pretty typical occurrence though as the airport i work in is one of the places that the us airforce often refuel at!

    I just saw @Katie ‘s post on the meet the mods thread and had to ask @Katie have you ever tried a toasted wrap? I know you said you like ham and cheese wraps, I do them but I wrap them up all the way even on the sides and toast them under the grill. Brilliant, brilliant stuff (add salt and pepper to make it even better)

    I remember doing toasted wraps in one of the lockdowns I think it was a trend on tiktok? You put the different fillings in each quarter, fold it kinda like a triangle and then put it in the toaster. Yum I might have to start doing that again @independent_ you've inspired me! I've recently acquired a george foreman so I might have to see what they're like in there. What other kind of wraps have you toasted?

    Sometimes when the people most like you don't love you, it is a hurt that can cause the greatest pain, and this pain can lead you to hate everything.

    Good morning all.

    Second day of using the step machine every day this week complete! Just 5 minutes again but that’s enough for now.

    We made soup yesterday, so I think I’ll have some of that for lunch in a bit then I have a few random house bits to do this afternoon. We think the shopping is being delivered at 3 but it’s not on the calendar (thanks mum) so hoping we’re right.

    Sometimes go out to get food on a Tuesday but don’t think I will now.

    How are we all?

    @Katie i know i wasn’t expecting that at all lol, i still don’t get how it relates to the number, ik it’s Harry Potter reference but I can’t figure out the number! Only 250 more to go before I’m at 10,000 - think that might call for some cake to celebrate!!!

    Neither actually! The only thing I thought of was that broom he gets but that's a Nimbus 2000 so I've got no clue @independent_ ! 10,000 posts is incredible and definitely calls for a celebration!

    Could it be a reference to platform 9 and 3/4? Which here, could mean 9 and 3/4 thousands = 9750?
