    My skin cleared up when I cut yeast from my diet.....a lot of other health benefits too...I can just about tolerate bread/yeast once or twice a week now.

    It's so dark and miserable here, but we have the christmas lights on, the fire's roaring away and I've got some nice smelly candles lit......I've wrapped one lot of pressies....DH tried to help but he's not in a great way today so he was official sellotape passer :D

    Just going to go and get the burger mix made for tea and then snuggle down to watch a film.

    Squizz - sorry to hear about the job x

    Your days sounds lovely at the moment Pooky, Im sure DH would rather be out at work and better but must also be nice for him to be around for all the christmas build up. Days with the lights on, fire roaring and wrapping presents :) Am really looking forward to watching Kirsties homemade Christmas again tonight

    Wow pap, I didn't realise you had pcos, that makes your weight loss even more amazing!

    Hope Bea feels better soon Sally.

    I'm a happy Ames - my OU reg pack came through today and I do only have to pay £50. I wonder if the fee support goes up because I'm technically doing a full time course now.
    Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.
