    And they were very nice too :rotfl:DH splashed out on M&N's which I helped him eat :o

    My weight loss isn't going very well lately and I've decided to blame the weather as obviously my body thinks it should be going into hibernation soon.

    Me buying a selection of cheeses and a M&S meal deal today certainly won't help :p The cheese is for tomorrow as we're having a firepit party (not having room for a bonfire) and I'll be making soup and apple pie too :D

    Happy to report that I'm the proud owner of 3 £2 coins for the can :)

    Almost the weekend already :T

    I haven't been posting much but I'm all updated on everyone's threads :)

    Still finding it hard to get used to the dark evenings and I'm munching a packer of crsips as we speak/type :rolleyes:

    Good news is that my second painting did indeed sell and I'm the proud owner of three £10 notes :D which I'm most likely to spend tonight as I'm off to see a tribute band with friends. Maybe I can get away with calling it a money neutral evening? ;)

    Any hoo, I can't believe its only 6 weeks till Christmas already :xmastree:
    I know what I'm getting most people and have bought a few pressies already but I don't want to buy anymore until I've been to the good food show just in case I see loads of stuff!

    Thanks SMF2 :D I enjoyed spending them too :rotfl:Happy to say that I got 3 £2 coins given to me as change and they are now in the very heavy tin can :j

    Also I stayed the same weight on Saturday :beer: and celebrated by finishing off all the cans in the cupboard...hic....

    DH has started telling everyone that we're poor because instead of buying a jar of coffee we're using up the sachets 'acquired' from hotels. :rotfl:He then went to his parents and raided their fridge for some cheese and ham. Apparently he can't take sandwiches to work as we don't have bread either and so I directed him to the freezer full of whoopsied bread rolls :rotfl:

    Its almost enough for me to start making his sandwiches for him......:think:..........nah!

    Hi :)

    Just a quick post to say that I am going swimming tonight :A
    Dinner is defrosted carrot soup and roll :)
    We're going to see a disaster film :D
    I still have sweets to sneak in :)
    Toluna renewed my £10 amazon voucher :D

    I've got to find £40 for the bone cracker :rolleyes:
    I'm just not feeling very motivated :o

    but I'm sure i'll feel better after swimming and a good film (or even a poor one with lots of explosions) :rotfl:
