    Oh but, yippee again I am 1lb down, which in itself is a bit crap but seeing as midweek I was 3lbs up on last friday I'll take it.

    So my total is now 17lbs and 1lb under my pre baby weight. Just another 27lbs to go to be back to my skinny days :)

    I'm back from looking in my new house! Got the shock of my life tidying up the 14 weeksworth of letters and junk from behind the front door. The BIGGEST SPIDER I've seen in a long time ran straight up my arm :eek: Then 30 seconds later I found it's big brother :eek::eek:

    OH has gone to pick up DD's from school, then it's operation bleach!!! :rotfl:

    Hi all

    Have a lovely time Sally :wave:

    Jamie Oliver has a bolognaise recipe with a whole tube of tomato puree in! I've never tried it though, I just use a decent squeeze of it or a dollop of tomato sauce. I add a decent splash of worcester sauce or a squeeze of brown sauce, depending on which I have.

    I have an interview........for the job I was saying about yesterday (the one with possible, but rare contact with Cruella)...I had a reply today to the email to say I had been shortlisted and I would be written to. The interviews are on the 27th (which I knew) but as that's only 5 days away and only 2 working days due to the bank holiday - they are leaving it late to contact candidates.......so I wonder if they went back and looked at my application and thought - whoops, disability........

    I have VERY mixed feelings about it for a number of reasons, but I'll go and see what happens.
    :D"Stay Wonky":D
