Back Under House Arrest days 232/233

Monday was a chill-out day after work. We had a lie in until 8.30am, and I did my yoga stretches ( I miss doing them when I'm at work) followed by the bike. I set to and caught up my pages in the dyalog. I made another couple of cards and wrapped a gift ready to go into the post ( it's one of my far flung ones so I wanted to make sure it went in plenty of time!)
In the afternoon I had a message on my banking app. Someone had registered a new device linking my credit card. I hadn't done this, so I rang immediately to sort it out. The good news is I keep my cards locked when not in use, so that's why the bank knew there was something amiss. They had requested a £120 withdrawal from my card which was refused so no money had been taken. It did mean however that my credit card details had been compromised, so they cancelled that card and are sending me another. That means both me and Kev have been targeted in the last month. My advice is keep tabs on your account and pay online with PayPal where possible. The last thing I paid for on my card was to Create and Craft, and the fraud guy on the phone said it would more than likely be the last transaction that would be where someone had gained the information... I tell you, it makes you paranoid. 
Today, Tuesday we walked into the village to pick up a
stamp set I'd ordered came, but I had to pick it up from the post office as there was duty to pay on it. Then we popped into town to do a shop. We weren't gone long. When we got back we started sorting out some of the decorations. Taking a few of the Halloween ones down and replacing them with Christmas ones. We still have a lot more to sort, but will do it gradually, over the next week.  Tonight we watched the Bake Off final, I think the winner was about the best of a mediocre bunch if I'm being honest. Then I'm a Celebrity was on which I'm really enjoying.
