Hi all,
Just back from the wedding in Spain. We had a brill time but have come back with the flu. Rang the GP & had a phone consultation re: swine flu. I have many of the symptoms and a raised temp but he said most people have a higher temp than me. Have decided not to take anything (because of the baby) but feel rubbish. To be fair it feels like any other flu so not unduly worried but usually I would knock myself out with Lemsip
Tirlittan, Snowwhite & Starnac - sorry you all feel down
Tirlittan - it was myself and Starnac that were going on about the person centred plans. They are fab and give a great focus.
SavingH - I am so sorry to hear about the job
PAID - well done on the negotiations for better wages

Hi CMD,

Yeah, the weather was gorgeous. They had the ceremony in the garden of the hotel and then we had dinner overlooking the mountains and the pool. When the sun went down they had candles lit by the pool and then had fireworks.
Well done on the Neals Yard remedy creams. They have lovely stuff!Total (Aug 19):€58,567 Now:€26,947

That's sounds lovely.
I might keep one of the Neal's Yard creams for mysef, unless the other one goes for really good money.DEBT FREE OCTOBER 2012!Proud to have dealt with my debts!0 -
i would be afraid that i would look like them. :eek: i'm not on the large side (size 10bottom/12top) but have a wobbly tum after having DD. i know a bit of exercise would tighten it up but i haven't got time (i'm also a bit lazy
)
Look I would be so grateful to be your size so stop knocking yourself. I never appreciated myself when I was slimmer and probably accept myself far more now I am larger..... Would still prefer to be a size 12 tho....
Belly dancing is a great laugh! I couldn't believe how much I ached the next day tho.... :rotfl:Glamour magazine was outside my work today giving free goody bags. Got Neil's Yard hydrating cream,Sanctuary body butter, mascara, false eye lashes,shampoo, conditioner and couple of other bits and bobs. Well pleased. Checked straight away how much they went on for on ebay.I'll keep some of it, but if I can make money from free stuff, I will.
It's also added another two months to DFD.
