    I have 1 and 3/4 bottles of wine left in the house. I'm not sure if I will be AF today again. The recycling box has been outside my house for a few days as the bin men haven't been because of the snow and it is overflowing with bottles. I have about 10 more empty bottles in my kitchen along with a couple of empty jam jars.:rolleyes::o

    Hope everyone else is okay.:A I'm off to have some brekkie after a nice lie in.

    When do your bin men come? Stick them all out the night before and clear it all out, you will feel so much better :D

    I'm now going to get dressed and go out to look at this car. Really hoping the neighbour goes cos she's parked next to me and I can ease out gently instead of squeeze out of the space I'm in.

    All thoughts of exercise are banished, though still feeling chirpy (ish) :D

    Good morning,

    I am still not sure :confused:

    If I go by how I feel then I am. Sure I mean.

    Anyhoo - going to go and clear my drive and take DD to the town. I need to get out of here for awhile. We are going to splurge and have nice lunch out - if you can call lunch at Mr Mc nice (UGH.gif - I might just have a latte).

    And then I have about hundred and one things to do so better just get cracking.

    Go carefully in the snow, everyone :)

    I'm now bursting with health after the gym as I've had a banana & glass of smoothie...tho the chocolates I had pre-gym (for energy, of course :rolleyes:) are probably counteracting it :rotfl:

    Morning! :hello:

    Hope the car's OK Jo - I had a completely flat battery after Xmas after it sat for 4 days so hopefully it'll be the same tomorrow & I won't be able to go to work :D.

    Marru - you might want to spare us the detail :cool: but didn't you say originally that today would confirm things one way or another? I take it it hasn't?

    PBT - oo oo I'm near Jct 17 too can I have a lift, can I can I????

    How rude! That should be MAY I have a lift, may I may I?

    Next door's dog is out in the garden - she hasn't got any knee joints so she runs like Spotty in the Woodentops.
