How Friday nights have changed

End of the week. Friday, was a day when working in London, I'd go out. It was the time I'd meet up with my friends who also worked in London and wouldn't get home until the early hours of the next morning.


Bringing my son back to Wimbledon, my husband today saw my son off to school and back and it was good to have a break and when we got back to Wimbledon we all sat there, my mum and stepdad watching Bowls on BBC 2. I hadn't watched Bowls for a long time. 

I would often watch if it was on and has been good to stop have my phone on me all of the time and taking breaks from my laptop. 

My son is now in bed and I am going to listen to Epsom Hospital radio as my colleague Ian Daggett does a show 8pm to 10pm and helps me learn and gear myself up for when I do my show on Sunday's 4pm to 6pm. Check it out here: https://www.epsomhospitalradio.org.uk/on-air/listen-live

He has a guy named Steve doing his show as he is in training and soon will be hosting his own show.

I have a cup of tea, some Dairy milk and I'm in bed and I am so glad I no longer go out on a Friday. I like to be in bed and chill. 

I will be joining a live with a lady called Sarra Cannon. She is a successful Self Published author and has two sites Heartbreathings and Sarra Cannon and does a coffee and chat on Fridays 9pm to 10pm. https://sarracannon.com/ https://heartbreathings.com/

Today I visited Home Bargains and boy is that shop busy. It has been a long time since going there but some real nice bits and filmed. I will be include the shop with me in a vlog and show afterwards what I bought. Check out my channel: (337) Typical London Gal Carrie Holmes - YouTube

They do have a good selection of goods but I am changing my view on spending on items. I want to stop buying plastic. They had a makeup organiser and it was really popular but looking for wooden or cloth and more substantiable storage solution.

It is good to be picky because it helps me in making the right choices and what is going to be a long time investment and why I buy many items online and buy second hand. I also like TK Maxx and stores like Dunelm because I want value for money. 

I have Youtube channel where I talk about money and finance, if you'd like to check it out: Financial Living - YouTube

So going to go now but if you'd like to be notified when I post a blog on this site, then please subscribe. 

Many thanks for reading,
