    I'm back :)

    It was lurvly in the Lakes on Sat with brilliant sunshine and so I've got a nice tan from walking the Lion and the Lamb. :j We got soaked on Sunday but it didn't ruin our day at all until, of course, we had to come home.



    LOOK AWAY GALLY!!!!!!! :eek:

    After all that walking we of course needed fuel and therefore we had a huge cream tea for lunch, Surf 'n' Turf for dinner (best steak I've had in months), bacon butties for breakfast and quiche and onion tart for lunch
    Then after that looooong drive home (poor DH drove the whole way as I fell asleep :o) we ordered a large pizza and wedges


    SAFE TO LOOK AGAIN GALLY

    So I'm sure that a deserve every lb I've put on but it was sooo worth it :D

    As well as the oversized food the weekend didn't come cheap with £90 petrol and £100 on food (paid for parents as they paid for the cottage)

    SMF2- Can you inserted a spanked smiley please as I truly deserve to be....

    SO....I came to work prepared with a healthy lunch, having had my cereal for breakfast and there are danish pastries in the bl**dy office!!!!!!!!!!


    there's no way I can resist........
