The bank is driving me nuts, keeps txt me to check every little thing, just cos I had fraud once against my credit card, they are always on to me now all the time. I need to dump them and get a new bank............

Wish me...

Well looks like golf planned for next weekend now, but I did get a great meal and nice time with my family at the Ludlow food festival.

Weather was lovely and company was good, we ate and drank and enjoyed the castle, market, the bars and hills.

Tomorrow I am back at the gym for much of the day, then studying, and I am tired...
