    Hi all

    FE, I wonder if Frogletina will let you see her x rated photos LOL

    Yesterday I used a site where you can find info if anyone has been looking you up online.

    I found some odd things. FB profiles, the text is full of that gibberish where the language doesn't match our keyboards (it said very insecure when I tried to see what it was) there was also a completely different site that was all lists of numbers? I'm guessing it's all related to tracking where you go on FB.

    Any ideas?

    CL - where are you? Don't be embarassed if you have been in 'returns heaven' :) How are you keeping - how is your mum?.

    And we've also been missing Ziggles and the FWBs and fudge for a while.

    NGlady, I hope you can keep to budget this week.

    Well that would result in my reputation being either confirmed or down the pan!

    Someone asked for stories? Well I was walked back to the hotel quite late one night to be told by one of the staff 'It is very late, you should go to your room' the implication being to go there alone. I was certainly not thinking of taking him to the room with me.

    I was so stunned by this that I turned around and went off and we sat on his boat for about half an hour before I went back to the hotel again, by which time I guess the staff had gone to bed. So I did too - alone, before anyone asks! :naughty:

    They were talking to you as though you were 14.

    His boat...............what kind was it I wonder, nice and big, or was he on a cruise ship, or even a rowing boat? :)

    Frogletina you're naughty only giving us little snippets so we have to try and guess.

    Bigger than a rowing boat but completely open, ie no galley, loo etc, just covered with canopy. Used to take small groups of people up the river to the beach, or to the mudbaths, or to swim in the lake.

    Ziggles I can see you're around how are you?

    Fr. what happens if you need the loo on the boat?

    Hi all!

    I haven't posted in a while as I went off on holiday -- it was literally booked that morning & I flew at 6pm the same day, so yeah... it was kind of impulsive! :S Enjoyed it though... my last hol was 2009 so it was nice to get away.

    But now I have to somehow claw back some of the money that spent, as it really wasn't a spend that I'd budgeted for, and I spent money when I was there too. Will post back tomorrow as I'm super tired (only been home an hour ago) x

    I finally managed to pm Flickering Ember re FB. Since my computer broke a few weeks ago it deleted some commands I used to have so if I leave the site for a moment and go elsewhere, I have problems returning to pages I just viewed unless I go through a rigmarole.

    I'm wondering if the contest you entered was via MSE.

    Hi Anglea- i am always here, i just 'like' stuff and go away.
    How are you all?

    Been in yet another 'funk' the last few weeks, not sure i've been out of it for 2 months to be honest so to avoid spreading and sharing negativity i am not spoken to anyone or participated in anything cos i really can't help it...see there i've done it again:o (and no-one is looking for me either.)

    On the fudge front i had none for 3 weeks then fell off the wagon proper, i have put on about 8lbs since i moved out of home :( And it's making me feel worse as i am now at the heaviest i've been EVER so i eat more rubbish. no idea what to do now.
    FWB1 has been very well behaved but did i mention the breakfast isse- where the first time i stayed over he gave me one sllice of toast and coffee and that was it:eek: The next time i demanded croissants before i went and they were duly produced. Week before last he gave me 2 jaffa cake rolls and a coffee- i ask you with tears in my eyes...what kind of grown man does that??? i was so annoyed i didn't even have the cake roll. I just left... stingy @rse:mad:
    Anyhow moving swiftly on CL and frogletina you must tell us everything so some of us can live vicariously through you.
    I definitely wanna know about the loo thing too now:D

    phew- what a long post- you'll be wishing i just stayed lurking now;)

    Well, the trip to the beach is 40 mins up the river, so not necessary. If I go on a longer trip, to the lake or mudbaths, or to the town on the far side of the lake (opposite direction to the beach) I always go on one of the bigger boats that have a loo.

    Otherwise you have to wait till the journey ends or go when there is a swimming stop on the way.
