    went to the gym then came back and had strawberries and cream - mmm... I won't be at 11 stone by the end of september at that rate!

    before he went to bed DS handed me an ice cream recipe book, he suggested making some yesterday and I said the freezer was too full and we'd have to wait till we'd eaten our way through some stuff....so how much does he think we eat in one whole day???? maybe towards the end of next week...

    absolutely Beanie, DS seems to do ok at school but severely lacks common sense! must be his dad... I remember going out to my car armed with a bulb and screwdriver and his dad was horrified that I was going to change a bulb myself - he'd always gone to the garage...

    Watching gorgeous George - ahhh romance... I remember that... I think!
