Been woken up by a man snoring. In a different flat! 🙃I don't even think our bedrooms share a wall, it sounds further away. But loud enough to wake me up.

Why can't I work in my pjs like at homeWhen I was younger wearing a tight outfit meant a figure hugging dress, now it just means my trousers are too small 😩 Had to come in to the office and dress properly for the first time in a while. (1)
