OKey dokey.....Jump back on this wagon both of you and I will hold your hands as well.

Hello all
This is the first opportunity I have had to drop in for a few days and I have to do it quickly as I'm at workso once more I am very behind in how everyone has been doing.
Please could you put me down for 2 more MADS Shaggy, a total now of 13. I was AF yesterday and on Sunday (YES result an AF weekend day the first one since I don't remember when :j). I expect to be AF today as well (but won't declare it yet) so I should have another bag of gold before Shaggy hands on the baton."When you reach the end of your rope, tie a knot in it and hang on"

Oh you see hobnobs aren't one of my 'killer biscuits' I will not speak the names of those who are my indulgence.
I'm immune from chocolate - dunno why - doesnt bother me - so I'm not helping really sorry SSA and Molls.
Can't understand why folks like the stuff - we've still got chocolate from last Xmas kicking about.

I am allergic to dried fruit so garabaldis would kill me
Gypsey creams
Fox's crunch creams
GINGER NUTS
to name but a few.
If I end up buying any today - I will personally hold you responsible for naming those ginger lovelies Miss P.

Hello Maman - I havent' forgotten the Edinburgh trip - I'm just going to get a copy of something called the List for you in a bit. As I am lurking quite near the fair city at the mo
Don't worry fay, Edinburgh trip was 2 weeks ago. I loved it, walked miles and ate loads and drank very moderately. I loved it there, such a beautiful city, I could have just wandered round the New Town for hours staring at the Georgian buildings (well I did actually).
I had to confess about biscuits - I can't have the kinds I like in the house - there are only specific ones but once the packet it opened its gone (bit like Wine for me as well). He was very very surprised 7 years of being together and he's never seen me become the human cookie monster.
I'm not a big biscuit, chocolate or cake fan but will eat them when bored or willpower is lowered through drinking. My answer (aside from not drinking:D) is to buy in for OH things I don't really like (fig rolls, tear&share, Pringles) then I'll leave them alone.

Sorry you had to visit the outlaws MissP, hopefully they weren't too insulting to you even though they drove you to drink:mad: Well done on your resolve for April. Jumping straight back on the horse (or wagon) is the best plan. Good idea to reserve your seat as it might get crowded!0
