I'm off alcohol today - still feel slightly dodgy after yesterday's indulgence...

Have signed up to the £100 clothes challenge (though will need to spend more when I lose weight). Have yet to unwrap the remoska mum and dad bought us; then plan to see what I can cook in it!!! I think i've lost my mojo!

K-bagpus, congratulations on the engagement!

Superdrug does have some 10p goods - not many in my local branch, but if a hotwater bottle cover shaped like a naked female torso is something you need, then it can be yours. I got one for my christmas gift box for next year, also a calculator where it has a picture of numbers of fingers on each key, rather than actual numbers. Looked like some v small toiletries gift sets also.

I would not make a trip just for these (stock levels looked v low), but I recommend popping in if you are out.

BB, *hugs* as always

Well we are having a scrabble contest but I seem to be playing for me and Mum :rolleyes: I also seem to have eaten tonight :whistle: Me thinks I am back on the diet tomorrow then. Which is good in one respect as day four would be Wednesday when I am off work incase I get ill again. Ahh well tis christmas :rolleyes:

Bit of a roller coaster ride for me....I went out on christmas eve for the first time in about mmmm 22 years and got a bit excited and got drunk...no more than normal, but I woke up very ill on Christmas Day. After the ususal confusion of presents and whose were whose....I ended up feeling sick with the trots.

I got no sympathy as you can imagine but struggled through the tiniest christmas dinner I have ever had and had a couple of cointreau and hot waters.......with pepto bismol on the side.

Woke up in the night with really a really bad stomach, burning up but freezing and shivering and achey all over. I felt so bad I even considered going to hospital cos I thought I had swine flu or meningitis.

Just managed turkey, chips peas and gravy and have heat patch on my back. Tired but starting to feel marginally better.

Hope everyone else had a good christmas...

Well done k-bagpuss....

Somehow my brain twisted that sentence into 'I have roast cat....'. :eek:


Hello everyone, hope you've all had a good Christmas! :wave:

Just got back from staying with family, and have dropped the kids off with their Dad, so the house is quiet (and yet still messy :doh:).

Bit of a strange Christmas for me, but still quite nice and with a couple of lovely highlights.

Have to say that at the mo the thought of a glass of fizz is not appealling.
My head is still thumping.
Oh well.

Cheers Beanie - kisses and hugs from Mr Sunday sitting in his car on Christmas morning were one of them! And also the Tim Minchin DVD he gave me...which he is going to watch with me (Mr Sunday AND Tim Minchin at the same time....now there is a thought.... ).

And it has been lovely seeing the kids so happy and excited. They have been brilliant, and it really reminded me how lucky I am. :A
