    Yep I went in January :D (and I'm going again in October hopefully if the OH fancies it)

    I loooooove NY - it rocks - this time I'm staying on the Upper West Side - but my friend has never been so we'll do all the usual stuff then for my bday we're getting a cupcake cake and bottle of bubbly and riding the ferry at midnight and going to try and get them to sing to us and then go clubbing :D:D:D

    Hopefully it will be warm too so I can strut my gossip girl stuff down 5th Avenue - I am the biggest Park Princess on a Primark budget going :cool:
  • sorry to hear about the funeral, you never said... is it someone close?

    Please contribute, you're a wise and calming influence... i for one love your posts.... :kiss:

    Thanks Maz.
    The funeral is for a guy I never met. He was the husband of our Training Co-ordinator and the father of another guider I know well (she had my 'job' before me). He collapsed and died suddenly. I don't usual go to funerals lke that - I always feel that it's a bit like voreurism - but I was asked if I would like to go by the wife.
    Looking a bit doubtful now cos Brit Gas still not here. :mad:
    And I'm freezing cold. Could do with the heating on.

    Just checking :D

    Maz, can you please reassure DH that he wont have to get nekkid or anything for the weigh in. He's panicking :rolleyes:

    What? You mean that they have stopped the "All men must be weighed in a thong" policy................shame that:D

    I am feeling a bit better today and have actually managed to get out of bed, eat some toast and get dressed.

    Just waiting for Asda to come.

    I lost a bit of weight on the Slimming World program but to be honest I know that my enemy is the lazy takeaway and crisps, nuts, biscuits, nachos with cheese, red wine......:o
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.

    Hmm depends - I did prommise NOT to take my trainers because I'll be recovering from the marathon but I will prob do a few laps (its about 10k all the way round so not too big) - I ran in it in Jan and its pretty amazing so I'd hate to miss the opportunity this time round :D

    Yep this is me (in my dreams):
