I was wide awake at 4.30am listening to kp snoring her little head off. I got up at 6am to walk the dogs and have some brekky.

I took the opportunity of an early rise to review our finances. In examining bank statements I came across £37.50 going out every month since January. I had NO IDEA what it was. I managed to trace the company who was charging us this and got them on the phone to explain what it was. They would only speak to Mrs Pollard. It was 9am, kp was fast asleep, but I was keen to find out what it was.

dp:- Karen, can you speak to this lady ? It’s about some money that leaves our bank every month.
kp (in full earshot of the woman) :- Do I have to ?
dp:- Please

Well, it took a few sentences before kp woke up. But we tracked the item down to my relief at the cost of an irate kp.

The Occupational Therapist visited today with a student onlooker. It was just a discussion today to discuss what kp wants to achieve. First real session is next week.

That’s it for today.
