Happy Friday! People, I’ve had a week. I know that it’s darker nights and the boredom of being at home all the time (which I kind of like but not when I have to work!). But I have reached the stage of ‘stick a fork in me, I’m done!’

I will talk about the mouse visitor I had this week later. I just can’t right now. I just need to finish today strong and have a good weekend. I’d also really like my desk chair to arrive, but we can’t have everything at once (I’m told!).

But overall, I feel like 2020 is trying, Joe Biden is President Elect, there is a vaccine, Dominic Cummings no longer works at Number 10! Small steps.

Anyway here are this week’s links…
