    Honesty pays, innit? :rotfl:

    Last week my 10 year old son found a mobile phone on the road and wanted to keep it. I told him to call a number stored on the phone so he can return it. It was eventually reunited with its grateful owner who gave my son a tenner. I would be very upset if I lost my phone.

    He went cycling today and lost his phone. We called the number and a woman answered, gave us her address and we went to collect the phone. I somehow don't think son would have got his phone back if he had kept the other one.

  • I'm being a good girl, yes I know REALLY LOL I'm sat eating dried apricots drinking apple, orange & passionfruit.

    I go a weight club each week with some friends, both of them have lost loads I know I'm not 'fat' (toy between size 12 & 14 but over winter it's usually more 14) but I feel huge at the moment. We have loads of Wii games including Wii Fit but can't get motivated with anything & with the bad weather I've been getting bus rather than walking so know it's only me to blame. Sorry to ramble but needed to get this out.

    I know what you mean pms. The bad weather doesn't help anything - makes me want to take the easy route, eat loads and snuggle on the sofa in thick jumpers. I really have to force myself to be good. Have been mostly good today - ran this morning and had healthy stir fry for dinner and cereal for tea, but also had 2 pieces of flapjack (home made).

    We'll all get there eventually... there must be some good weather around the corner!!

    night kkk

    splodz, omg packing, thats so much fun:D

    we have loads of suitcases, i plan to buy loads and loads of stuff there, we have digital weighing scales and they are fantastic, so accurate, does the villa not provide a hairdryer? ours did last time, we stayed at windsor hills last time and this year going to tuscan hills

    pms, know what you mean about weight etc although id love to be a 12 again:Dget there someday, if you want to lose then just take it slowly, try introducing walks into your day etc

    i have finally finished ebay, 47 things on there and out of that 7 are currently selling, loads of questions about the whisky, always is, lot of interest from abroad, normally is:D

    Oh I hadn't thought of that (hairdryer I mean) - will email them to ask.

    We stayed in the same villa the last two times, at Hampton Lakes, but as that couple sold it we're going to stay at Legacy Park this time.

    OMG I cannot wait!!!

    Right, bed time now though - extremely busy week ahead (gonna be awful) so best get lots of sleep at the start of it.
