    I'm waiting for a team of builders to come round - they're called PMT!!
    Penny, there's a building firm operating in South East London called Totty :D (As I only see their signboards when I pass them on the bus on Sundays, though, I've never seen the builders, so I don't know if it's true :rotfl: )
    :)Operation Get in Shape :)

    Good afternoon everyone

    Haven't had a chance to post today because I had an alarm call at 3am, and and terrible trouble getting back to sleep again so didn't wake up very early this morning! Plus OH's cousin was kipping in the computer room.

    Sorry in advance for mentioning the 'C' word, but I'm going to get going on a plan for Christmas later this week, I'm totally skint so I'm going to make things for people this year, biscuits and cross stitch things...little things that don't cost much but look like they do IYKWIM!

    (((Hugs)))) to you elona
    morning ageandjo....what happened? I haven't read the daily threads for a couple of days either. Hope it wasn't too serious.#
    P-P hope your throat is feeling a bit better,good luck at the hospital
    snoozer good luck with the MRI, hope it goes well
    Kiwi- sorry to hear about the insomnia...
    hester, good luck with the interview
    freya and snow angel, hope your sore bits get better soon
    ((((hugs))))) to lillibet and tootles and michelle and everyone who has PMT today...I don't have a problem with it at the moment, but I'm sure the OH will disagree! What he doesn't realise is that he can and does annoy me ANY time of the month!!

    sorry if I've missed anyone out, one of my little old ladies just came to the door. She was looking for the nurse that comes to her at 4pm to give her her insulin and she'd got the hands of her clock mixed up!

    hugs to anyone else who wants one and hope everyone is having a good day

    Airbourne is the biggest free seaside air show in the world now. I have four days down there, with evening appointments. Then I have normal shifts next week with evening appointments until Friday when I have a double shift and an evening appointment. Bank Holidays are always busy for me with event coverage, then I'm back on breakfast for 5 weeks, no doubt with a few evening appointments thrown in for good measure!!!!:p

    Airbourne's good fun though, so I don't mind covering that - it gets me out the office for a while if nothing else!!!!

    Thanks Poppy, but she won't be bothered, she's lovely, it's just that I was so much slimmer last time I saw her(and her brother who will be there in Norfolk too) and now I'm back the way I was the previous time I saw them. I should be even slimmer not fatter as I was on course to get to my target weight. And i really need to lose 4 stone for the sake of my health.They are all lovely people who won't mention my weight, but I'll still feel bad.

    I lost a lot of weight about 17 years ago, but that was before marriage and family and it's so much harder now I'm cooking for 5:rolleyes:

    Hi Again everyone

    OK, I've calmed down about stupid Hubbys excess speed. Sorry about earlier:o. As I'm in charge of all the money I've come the conclusion that the only thing I can do is find out how much this is going to add to the insurance next year & reduce his monthly "allowance" accordingley. There is no-where else for the money to come from. It'll hit harder than that though, he is looking for a new job & lots of employers only allow a maximum of 3 points on the license so it'll restrict him, maybe that will get the message across that you just can't beat the speed cameras! Also, he takes the mickey out of my driving even though I have my advanced drivers licence and no points, just wait until I let it slip to his mum that he's got 6 points on his licence!! He he:D

    Not done much this morning apart from laundry & general tidying, actually had a 2 hour snooze & Spud's STILL asleep:D

    Kaz, why do you think you have doen anything to uspet us? You're a lovely person:grouphug:

    Hi Wardy,

    Have a look at this thread: Delicious WEETABIX cake! and also this post in the recipe thread. For weetabix brownies see here.

    Good luck with whatever one you decide to make.
