turpsSome good news.
Corey's work put him in for his course/exam for his publican license and he passed it this week. So, if he ever gets the urge he can run his own pub. Though he's happy where he is now so that's more of a distant maybe in the future thing.
We got the letter confirming we're getting the cost of living payment. We suspected we would due to getting tax credits but it's always nice to have the confirmation. It's going to be paid in two payments, in September and early next year, and will help a lot towards the energy bills. Though I still suspect my Oodies will be welded to my body during winter.
We've been to see Nope today and I came out of it thinking, the hell?! It's one of the strangest but still visibly striking films I've seen. Though as I was tellingspikedluv in comments earlier, we were always going to see it due to the marketing. Apart from the films aimed at kids, the trailer has literally been shown before every film we've seen at the cinema for the last few months. At first, very short trailers barely showing anything, then they kept getting longer and longer, adding more info until I had to know what was going on. Shame after seeing it I still don't know for sure.
No practical kitchen stuff has happened today but I did buy filler, an extraction hose and connector and sourced tiles to match the ones we have already. Operation eat the food from the fridge and freezer is going well and I still haven't set foot in a grocery shop this week, though we're out of fruit so that may change soon. I did buy 6 candles from Wilko, but they smell delicious and had been reduced to 50p each, they had to come home with me.
