25 Things in 2025 - Second Quarter Plus

10 - Obtain refund on our Oyster cards
We used to use our Oyster cards (issued by Transport for London) on tubes and buses when we went up to London. However, we no longer go there nearly as often, plus it's easy to simply use a debit card for the tube. And since we have bus passes buses are free and often the more direct route. Refunds are available online, but our cards are so old it doesn't work.
11 - Change phone provider
Something I've been putting off for ages due to the hassle - let's see if I can finally get it sorted!
12 - Visit Jersey
That's booked and we go next month. I'm including it because it's definitely something different for 2025 as I've never been before.
13 - Frame cross stitch
I've stitched a couple of Klimt pictures which really deserve to go on show, so it's about time I did something.
Second Quarter Plus
Two things which will take more than three months, so April to September
14 - Read book on Brueghel
I was given a lovely books of Brueghel paintings for Christmas 2023 which I've only dipped into a few times. It's not the sort of book to be tackled over a month, but one to enjoy the paintings, so that's my plan.
15 - Tackle stitching projects
I have a large number (16) of mostly cross stitching but also a couple of felt craft kits, some of which I've been given as presents, some I bought, and some are free gifts with my magazine, but all of them I'd like to do. I'm going to aim for completing three of those in the next six months, taking into account not knowing how long each one will take, plus already doing two SAL and cards for various occasions.
