  • Think that was suggested - my wieght yoyo's - been up and down 4lbs this week.

    Hope that with starvation til monday all will be well - BUT someone told me it was OK to have a takeaway so I am considering that for tea tonight.

    Will eat it whist cycling so I will be OK.

    Its actually WARM - here - walked round the fields at lunchtime at the uni - looked out to a clear sea and hazy sunshine - most odd.

    Shakes head - it won't last.

    I haven't weighed myself again this week. Not yet anyway. Trying to be good but was naughty and ate lots of mini snowballs :EasterBun


    I've begged OH not to buy me an easter egg but have been roped in to making a SOLID chocolate easter egg for my pal's boyfriend.


    Will post my weight on monday
    CC2 = £8687.86 ([STRIKE]£10000[/STRIKE] )CC1 = £0 ([STRIKE]£9983[/STRIKE] ); Reusing shopping bags savings =£5.80 vs spent £1.05.Wine is like opera. You can enjoy it even if you don't understand it and too much can give you a headache the next day J

    Now if the whole thing was made of crusty bread..........now you are talking. yum yum.

    Wow, no posts in over a day on this thread! Fay, have you started your trip to the mainland already? I managed to get out into the garden again today, have done some digging - its all about carrying on carrying on, basically. Off to a friend's tomorrow to see the area she now lives, round Crawley way, apparently there's a huge park round there with a huge pond.... hmmm. Will report back tomorrow!

    Hi guys and KK - hello!!

    Well sorry - been outside since 7am as it was gorgeous here:

    14 seed trays sown
    15m - yeah count it 15m of free free free woodchip for the path in the garden
    Drove a forklift alot (moving free wood chips (about half a tonne of lovely willow woodchip) whahahahahah evil laugh am now standing on one of my experiments when I walk up the path
    Mowed lawn (s) not that they needed it but it was fun :)
    moved more leaf mould
    Got my mothers day pressies (:))
    Picked up two desks on freecycle
    Sorted out garage and found another massive desk at the back
    Made an 'area' for my mega shop in the garage
    DD has a party and sleepover
    DS has a sleepover
    Shopped for lots of whoopsied things in a local village when we went for the desk (70 mile round trip!!!)

    Another 4 trays of flowers have germinated hurrah
    Have 22 seedtrays sown (greedy I know)
    Made another propagation bed in the greenhouse
    Tidied conservatory

    Think thus far today thats it - so so so so so chuffed with my path - I did it all by myself (including forklifts!!!!)

    i've been in the garden as well. OH decided to relay the slabs which his scooter sit on, and i have tidied up a couple of beds and we've put the reclaimed log roll round one of them.
    I've also dug the blackcurrant bush and rhubarb out of the lawn and moved them into the raised bed in the back garden. I have a feeling i shouldn't have moved the rhubarb but it wasn't happy where it was and hadn't really done much yet.
  • rhubarb will sulk - but will be fine - jsut make sure they are both watered - its a sulky beast - glad you had fun outside too - I am absolutely beaming from being outside
