    dmv --- grapes (good...) whilst spooning chocolate spread on them...not good lol. Oh dmv that sound totally dellicious. Am now imagining apple with choc spread, pear with choc spread, choc spread with choc spread ..... yum yum. (Oh just remembered, guerilla warfare on c/c/c = no choc spread:o)

    Granny, stand clear of the chocolate, stand clear of the chocolate. I see I am going to have to dust down and hone my lilacing skills if this errant behaviour continues. Have you achieved a day 2?

    Great to hear from you dmv and that you are doing more than ok. Sounds great that you have been able to maintain during this time of upheaval, and stay on track with your course work. I reckon you are right about onc you are settled and ready to retackle the healthy eating, you will see more weight loss.

    Victory - you have done so well to last on that money and refuse to start the vicious cycle of debt. For a complete expert on keeping food bills down and feeding the 5000 on a turkey leg, Nyk is your woman.

    weesmiler - gpood luck with your chocolate 'watch'
    Granny, thanks for your stint as keeper of the chart:T, much appreciated. Fred - thanks for taking it on:T
    Elfen - excellent result of SOTM:T:A
    marharet - hope you feel better now.
    Yeah, bails, slip that one in nonchalently - no TOTM...:eek::D
    I try to take one day at a time, but sometimes several days attack me at once

    Can you all send me VERY positive filling in of application form vibes and can you let everyone else know, who is better than i am, to not find this job and not apply for it if they do manage to see it please.

    although maybe i dont deserve a job with that rubbish sentence, although being out of education must cause brain decay i think.

    Yes BB it's day 2 of guerilla warfare against c/c/c.

    Had 20g of parmesan on my spaghetti for dinner .... but I wouldn't count that as 'cheese'. Cheese is when I cut off a huge chunk of parmesan and eat it on its own. Hang on a minute - wiping drool off keyboard ...... :o:o

    No cake, no chocolate despite OH offering TWICE to get some from his secret supply. :j:j

    I hope my fellow guerillas are fighting the good fight with success against the dreaded cookies, white bread, chips?

    Vix --- as many postive vibes coming your way as I can manage - and negative ones to any competitors. What job is it? Have I not been paying attention?

    PMSL at Vix, you are an absolute legend! :T Ditto with the good and negative vibes respectively. You haven't missed it unless I have too Granny, what is it Vix? I am also working on my application form, CV, personal statement and explanantion of gaps in employment history:rolleyes: today.

    Granny, here's a bit of lilacing to keep you going - well done on the ccc avoidance, impressive! :T

    Suggsy!! Long time fella! Great to have you back and see things going well again after the job loss. Anyone spied Ajax on another thread lately?

    :rotfl: at the TOTM comments - it's 6 days now but really don't think there's any celebrating to be done... and yes, they do sell condoms here too Vix :rotfl:

  • sounds complicated! OH is sulking today. We are having a halloween party at work and I decided to mak some muffins. He'd snarfed 3 down before I told him they were made of courgettes! He spent the rest of hte evening muttering about guerrilla warfare. Alas there's a rather a lot of oil in the recipe which negates the3 healthiness of the courgettes but I might experiment with bringing the oil down a bit and see if it matters.

    That reminds me I made an oil cake once, couldn't believe how much vegetable oil had to go into it:eek: the kids and OH neither liked it or disliked it and never made it again, same as carrot cake they hate the fact it has carrots in it but not tell them and the woof it down and then complain:rotfl:the best ones they like are the plain victoria sponges kind of ones or fairy cakes or muffins, the ones from the shops are far too rich for them so they always ask me to make them. Same as my muesli bars, tell them what is in them (raisins, fruit,chopped nuts etc) they would never dream of eating it but put it in their lunch boxes and they argue who gets the bigger bit and is there anymore:D

    This is the first time we have no fuss at halloween, it is forecasting rain and loads of it so the youngest is not bothered, the eldest would def not go out, someone might see him having a nice time, street cred would not allow it:rotfl::rotfl:

    Vic, not only is Nyk a complete guru on making your money last (she really does live on 4k a year!!) but Weezl's threads are an inspiration for surviving on a small food budget - she's currently living on £90 a month for food, toiletries and health for 3 of them (including nappies)! You guys are my heroes :o
