DDora - good for you, my FIL died 2 yrs ago from cancer too. Where are you doing your race? I have had a look, there are lots arent there? I thought it would be one big one?

PP&Bargainrzl: sounds like youre having fun, hope theres some nice HM cake to go with the tea in posh cups???? whats it like finally meeting someone from MSE?

Twink, I think Catowen may be right. Crazy computers! I made me chuckle anyway.

Shez, I am doing the race at Lydiard Park, Swindon. One day is already booked up, so am doing the Saturday 8th July. Should give me time to do some jogging about the neighbourhood to train a little. I don't mind going out now that the evenings are lighter. I think one of the girls at my hairdressers who lives near me is doing the race, so I may ask if she wants to pair up for some jogging motivation.

Hi

Am now home from PP's, courtesy of very kind lift from Mr PP (even though I could walk it in 20 minutes!), and found when I got home that my Laithwaite's wine order has been delivered, so have just taken 5 mins to restock my wine racks Had another look on the Tesco website for the Lanson's champagne offer which still seems to be AWOL

Haircut (£5) was a success, though it's now gone a bit fluffy on the top - my own fault for surreptitiously removing some of the grey ones I had a skin test for hair dye sensitivity, so that next time I get styled there I can have a colour treatment. I have more time off w**k coming up at the end of June so will probably try to book myself in again MATH - hmmm - thanks for the vote of confidence in my hairdresser :rotfl:

Between the haircut and visiting PP, I had a very non-OS few minutes - first went to a Sainsburys Central (at Waterloo) to pick up some TTD cookies to go with our cuppa then got lunch from Maccy D's - I have a weakness for the Sweet Chilli Chicken Deli Sandwich on brown bread :drool: (oh yes and I had a croissant and some bottled water from Pret this morning too ) so I've spent £5.18 on non essentials today

OK, they were all essential really

catowen/twink - yes, the "rude words filter" can be a wee bit over-zealous - it's the same with b!tch (even when you're actually talking about a female dog!) and c0ck (even when you're trying say that you've been cooking c0ck-a-leekie soup or you've been woken up by the sound of neighbour's c0ckerel)! Best way round it is what I just did (try typing pu55ycat and that should be fine )

Don't need to cook this evening as I managed to pick up a couple of Tesco readymade lasagne for 29p each last night (from a Tesco Express near closing time ) but will need to ice the carrot cake I baked yesterday. I am now running a sweepstake on the length of time (in seconds) between me finishing the icing and housemate polishing off the final slice :rolleyes:

Hope everybody's having a nice day

Hiya Everyone

It was lovely meeting BargainRzl today-she is a lovely lady:D We will have to do it again as the time just flew past. The cookies were delicious too....thanks.....and apologies for the MIL turning up:eek: :eek: :eek:

Just had dinner of chilli, rice and garlic bread and OH cooked extra lamb to do a base for the shepards pie tomorrow. Have to go up london to the hospital so will save some time when we get home and save cheating on getting fish and chips:o

DD is off tomorrow due to her school being used for a polling station.

Anyways, going say goodbye and may post later. Have a great evening peeps.

Just popping in to say afternoon to everyone and looks like most people have had a good day (only scanned through quickly so apologies if I've missed something important). Haven't long got in from w**k and missed most of this beautiful day. Will have to make up for it and take the dogs out on the beach early tonight instead.

Oh yes, I didn't mention that PP's MIL turned up, did I :eek:

I also didn't mention that PP's kitchen is very chic

Hey, the Thanks button's disappeared again

Hi all
Late posting from me today, I seem to have so little time. Left work an hour late today as only one of the photocopiers was working & it took ages to get thru all the work.
Hope everyone has had a good day.

Hey,where's my crusty loaf gone?

Been a lovely day here.I've been sitting in the garden all afternoon reading weightwatchers cookery books.Still haven't made the boy's beds or done the ironing.

Have also been for two cycle rides.There were a lot of cyclists about today,the sun brings them out;) Second ride was a trip to Tesco for polyunsaturated marge(as recommended by WWs).This is not something I normally buy - prefer natural food like butter,but Wws seem to think it is the business.I just know I'm going to end up chucking it.Got skimmed milk too which I don't like.OH is going to open the fridge and say 'why've you bought all this low fat stuff again,you know you'll throw it away?' He's right-still at least I got some exercise whilst getting the stuff:rotfl:
