    Hello all,

    Raph - sounds like a good deal from Virgin. My OH rang Sky last week to cancel, to save us some £, and they've offered us an all inclusive deal for TV/phone/broadband that's halfprice for 6 months, which is going to save us £35 a month. We were considering getting rid of everything if £ got very tight.

    granny - I keep flitting between days like you're having. I just can't keep my focus.

    Victory - sorry to hear about your BiL. Let's hope he manages to get a resolution. My OH is having to go thru' the tribunal process because his was handled so badly, but they're dragging their heels. It's sucks! I think you're doing the right thing by trying to keep your head down, and stay reasonably impartial at work. I'd just bear in mind who it is who does the hiring/firing, and could have a say over your position there, whilst not rocking the boat with anyone else in the meantime. Hope you feel better now after your hypo.

    kpc - peanut butter maker, could there be such a thing? Lush!

    KPC: They showed that peanut butter thing on something for the weekend the sunday before yesterdays. It made a right racket and apparently comes out very peanutty! Infact, i saw it in harrods yesterday too! I don't like peanuts, all i do is lick them and put them back in the pot haha.

    Raph: So cute you saying wife!! Cant wait to say husband instead of boyfriend. Fiancee would be a step up!!

    Yesterday went to london. £12.10 for a return to london and an all zones underground thing!!!!!!! What a sodding bargain. Went to harrods, lovelly shop. This woman was looking at louis vitton purses and her diamond engagement ring was HUGE, like the size of the queens head on a 1p. She dripped money. Also saw a black ferrari with tan leather seats, gorge. Oh and this man was on the door of one shop, oh my god he was like barbies boyfriend ken, perfection. Tanned, dark hair, tall, not a hair out of place. He looked like a wax work model. Not my type, far too perfect. Ice skating was lush, fell over and couldnt get back up! Hyde park was great, really christmassy! Got ill though and now i feel crap as. Im generally a cold person but im sat here in a vest top? VERY unheard of for me.

    Unfortunately as still eating for England my year end might be a bit higher than planned. Was given a voucher today in John Lewis (as an apology for poor service) for two coffees and two pastries, so mr granny and I had to choose the largest/most expensive we could find - just to show that we accepted their apology. :rolleyes: (Cinnamon and apple scone - lush)

    I'm obviously teying to eat for the South of England which may go some way to explain a 2LB GAIN!!!!! and I actually ran twice this week and was a little more careful food wise. Really need to get back into the right mindset which I don't think'll be helped by Xmas at um's as they haven't the foggiest about portion sizes or the fact that cheese is not required with every meal. Roll on circuit training starting again as that definiteely helps and it builds up into twice a day exercise.

    Conveniently forgot to weigh in on Monday morning in my mad dash to get to work. But have been a little piggy all week.

    Beanie I bet I could take that medal from you in eating for Scotland :confused:
