  • Kmac, usually it just gets cancelled for various reasons or we run out of time but the last time I broke up with my exboyfriend a fortnight before we had planned to go! but that was a good thing and now I have an AMAZING man!

    My big sister can be a bit of a snob so I have to tell her off occassionally too!
    Grrr, it's only 11 and I'm starving!

    Hi Jo! wave.gif Yep, I was off the boards for a couple of days (and shouldn't really be here now, because I'm at work - shhh! :p) but I wanted to pop in and say Happy Birthday to BF...

    Its good to "see" you. :D I'm not having such a good week food-wise this week, but I'm still probably doing better than I would do in a normal "bad week"...and I'm putting it all down to the support of you guys!

    I'm in London, by the way, but hoping to move out in the next few months, so hopefully by the time we all meet up next year, I'll be living about 120 miles north of London! My nearest big city will be Peterborough, but I drive or am happy to take a train, so will travel wherever!! ;)

    So how will we save money for the girly weekend away fund? (Jo I spied your sig!) woohoo1.gif

    I think I'll put the money I would have spent on something naughty (like a chocolate bar when I dont need one etc) into it... so everyday I'm cutting down on the chocolate and topping up my girly weekend tin.goodscales.gif

    FAB to post with you piglet. Dont fret about how you have been eating etc just how you can improve on it, today and tomorrow.

    I am going to get out an old map of GB and put stickers on it with who is where and when I get it done I will try and get on here, MMMM might have to pick BF brains for that one. Fab you up to GW, I am really looking forward to it.

    Have a good day at work and always here for you
