    WEll done on your full house Huston!

    Thanks, I'm well bored today as no cleaning to do, the house is spotless - tea dishes are done. OH has been laughing at my boredom, but has commented on the house.

    On a different note - doing all the housework, I've lost weight even though, I've ate too many of twinks recipe (hobnobs) and my own ginger snaps one, so I will be joining in forever more.

    Hope you enjoyed your walk!

    Rose I start work next wednesday, after having been at home for 17yrs!!!! :eek: I'm looking forward to it, but it's going to be challenging stuff. I'm going to be working with young people dealing with their sexual health issues. :D Good job I don't embarrass easily! I'm more likely to get cross with rude teenagers!!! :D:D:D

    ETA : WTG Pigpen!!!!! That's great news. Are you feeling any better now?

    Sarah, I'm sure you will be great! It's an essential service, you will be in demand with your pearls of wisdom.

    Anyone got a simple wholemeal bread recipe for a breadmaker? Or do the packet mixes work ok? I need to test it out, got it at a car boot sale.

    Well done :T I use 250g white flour, 250g wholemeal (all wholemeal is too dense for me, but make it with all if that suits you ;) ). 350ml water, 1tsp salt, 1Tbsp sugar, 1tsp yeast, 1Tbsp veg oil.

    Shout up if you need more help :D What make - I can then point you to a thread, possibly :beer:

    get away with unadulterated plagiarism looking at this last assignment! Other than that is it a rather uninteresting Access course and I am starting uni in September doing biomed..

    other than being infernally tired, 100% of the time and falling asleep at every given opportunity, I am feeling fairly human.. my water infection is a bit volatile and keeps rearing its rather uncomfortable head.. but other than that I think I am ok thank you! xx

    Huston and Kazwookie – my mum told me last week that eating soup is very good for weightloss. She said even if you cook a normal meal and then put it in the blender with a glass of water, it stays in your stomach longer than eating it in the usual fashion and you feel fuller longer and therefore eat less later. Interestink, no?

    My OHs mam was on about the same thing she'd heard about it from someone at her work, who'd watched it on the BBC, but I don't watch TV so have not seen it, but there was meant to be 10 different things about losing weight.

    I eat loads of HM soup, I love vegetable soup so I will be trying Quillions recipe at some point this week. My OH makes a mean tomatoe soup (although my ds calls it blood soup as he had it for halloween and the name has stuck with him). I getting hungry again and I've had my tea, off to raid the biscuit tub!

    Greenbee - sorry you're feeling down. Oh - and that plant we saw in the river that looked like a daisy, I think that's a water crowfoot

    I take it you've been doing research?! Thanks for that! I'm feeling better after wasting a bit of time on here :o. I think it's just the cold (and mess :rolleyes:). I'm going to go out now and do my shopping, and then either have an early night, or, if I have a surge of energy, do the tidying so I can clean tomorrow!
