    Just popping in to say hello again. Made it home without stopping to buy any. Still feeling very tempted to go out again so I will go down and start cooking dinner to distract myself.

    Now the rest of you can discuss the C word again...

    Hello,

    Tired, down with cold and in the danger zone but going to be AF today. That is 12 please Fay. I have too much to do so can't have an A day today. Will be back later to see what you are all up to. I am all for AF Monday to Wednesday next week. After that I am going on holiday with BF which means that the rest of the month will definitely be AF so I have only tomorrow to deal with (going away for weeked so no probs there). :j

    Clicky - this is what I did last year. Really good way. I NEVER thought I would be able to run 5 metres, never mind kilometres (after MANY years of smoking), but I now run 5k twice a week :)

    Thanks! Will let you know how things go...

    Now now lurks, you can't avoid it. Christmas is everywhere! (and I love it!!)

    Will be AF again tonight :T. Heading home from work shortly (sshhhh....don't tell them I'm on here!) to have dinner and then get on the exercise bike. Or the other way round (depending on how ravenous I am!).

    I'm with you, Lurks baby ;)

    I love Christmas (& I do for MSE-type reasons shop for it from September) but I don't agree with it being all over the place until mid-November at the earliest :confused:

    Totally agree - I completely flipped out in several shops and garden centres when away and marched out

    Xmas trees up - EH??? For MSE reasons I have been stashing a few things as i go throughout the year but I dont liek seeing xmas trees and autumn colour in the same trip to the mainland - ergh - thank god they aren't as silly here.

    Am back home away to catch up and see some new scores on doors - will try and post a list after my bath :)

    Just lugged back a six month shop top up for my store cupboard (stripeysocksshop - in - the - garage) - no car south so OH ran me up, and goodly lovely chum picked me and my various boxes of delights and earned herself a box of those cadbury choccie things you've all been ranting about

    By the way £3.02 a packet OMG!!! Are they made of gold - as I don't like chocolate - I don't really get it.

    Hellllllllllllllo :) scurry back in a mo......off to see what you lot are upto.

    Total debt as of 28/4/19 £7867.38:eek:
    minus 112.06 = £7755.32:money:
