I've been busy working in other jobs this week, so pond project progress has been slow, but I managed a couple of evenings out there where I played Minecraft IRL where I had the kids mine for gemstones under the trunk. My daughter found quite a lot of quartz which she's excited to have found. It's nice to have cleared up all the logs, branches and pond stuff which has now found a new home int he woods which I might get round to chopping for the path one day, or if not it will make a home for lots of lovely animals. I have mainly filled in lots of cracks around the pond water feature so that when it's running we don't lose water down the cracks. I used putty resin for this which will stay flexible and not crack. And it's quite safe for the fish, frogs and newts now it's cured. I've seen quite a few baby frogs hopping around now. The last picture is of Norman. He scares the life out of me often.

I've just had to pay £115 plus plus 2 months road tax because I forgot it SORN my van (statutory off road notification) when I decided not to use it for a few months because we don't need it again until August. I hate all these taxes in the form of penalties that I get all the time for being bad at paperwork. I always get penalties for forgetting to pay tax, fines for not submitting company returns on time and fines for not renewing my NHS prescription certificate... The list goes on, i'm not including speeding fines. Every time I open these letters it makes me feel like a failure in life. It really gets me down and makes me feel sad. I don't know how normal people keep track of it all. (In fact, I've just remembered we should have paid tax in June that I'd forgotten about! 😫) So, my idea is what if someone would take car if all your vehicle admin. tax, insurance and MOTs, ensuring that all your vehicles were kept legal, maintained and roadworthy.. Do I need a PA or VA? Better systems or is there some amazing hack or software that I'm missing in my life? I'd love to know how you do it without the stress of getting penalised as this is probably one of my biggest pain points right now ..!

[Resident Expert's Only] We have our next meeting planned for 𝗪𝗲𝗱𝗻𝗲𝘀𝗱𝗮𝘆 𝟴𝘁𝗵 𝗝𝘂𝗹𝘆. Please pop this one in your calendar. I have some exciting news to share. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗔𝗴𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗮 Join either session but not both. * Welcome & Intros * Shared Calendar * Introducing Tiers * Affiliate Growth Drive & Competition * New Resident Expert Applications * Open Q&A Calls will be recorded for the benefit of the RE's that are unable to attend. These will be saved in the Clubhouse. All future Resident Expert Meetings are set on the second Wednesday of every month. There are two sessions, both with the same agenda - so you only need to attend one of them. Check the community calendar for your local time, and I recommend adding it to your own calendar, so you don't miss it.

Let's get to know each other! We're all here to learn and grow, and knowing our starting point is really helpful. Tell us where you are on your journey, and be brave and tell us in the comments your next question, or what you're working on that you would like help with !
