    We're having scabby turtles too - thanks for the idea Linda

    When I told my daughter about it, she said she used to make them all the time when she was at Uni, but I hadn't even heard of them before!!

    Mind you as I have said before - I bl00dy hate cooking

    Thing is Pap you have made a new choice in that you are running and keeping healthy..staying on CD and not loosing weight is not productive. Only you know what is the best thing for you though.

    Sammy, I wouldn't have even thought about leaving work. I wouldn't have even bothered searching the job listings :rotfl: I think you and Sally I right though. I have changed my personality and working somewhere that doesn't repect you as a worker let alone a person isn't good for anyone :o

    Sally, I think I have decided deep down. Its just doing/saying it really :o If I was earning more/not running I would complete my journey on CD. I would get to goal and I would become a CDC but it obviously isn't part of my life journey anymore is it? Its just sad that I am another statistc on the CD diet that didn't complete it :(

    Bunny are you ok? (Silly question to ask, sorry!)

    It would probably be nicer to hear the news from a friend of the family, rather than the formidable knock at the door.

    In short yes - but beware of silly fireservice rules on confidentiality. Tell the family a little bit of discretion may go a long way...

    Oh Bunny, how awful. If you can bear to call her family, then I would. I hope she is okay.
