@AldiUK I would be over the moon if you would stock boxes of Alcafe Americano and not the mixed latte/cappuccino. Three stores visited same story. You could clearly sell it 3 times over if only you put more of it out.

Today is a day I’m allowing myself to be distracted.

Packing is slow progress when I find art supplies & books I’ve not used for a while. So today I’m stopping to play.

I’m taking part in #kidlitforpeace - a charity art raffle with prizes from U.K. & Ireland’s kid’s book authors & illustrators. We’re raising funds for Palestine Children’s Relief Fund on JustGiving. This charity sends urgently needed medical & humanitarian aid to children in Gaza
