    Hi all,
    elly glad the move went ok.

    2 cats well done on the wine. I ahve just got some dandelion on the go. Same recipe as yours. BTW we drink our blackberry after 2 months lol. I started some carrot abot Xmas time and bottled it the other day. It tasted a bit like a cross between vodka and whiskey but won't be ready until Xmas.

    Emm good to see you back and I hope you get 3 cute ducklings.

    Has anyone heard from Saucy & Amber?

    I have been repotting tomato plants today but the weather is really cold and I think I have been premature putting out my courgettes as they are looking a bit sad.

    Jo the kettle idea is really good if I can just remember to do it

    Joey, Asda do a tomato and basil chicken one that is a good for you brand and is positively to die for and they are usually 5 for 4 quid and less than 300cals.

    Ooh thanks Munchki, I'll have a look for those. I tried Morrisons Eat Smart beef hotpot the other night and didn't realise till I'd cooked it that it was 6 WW points rather than the 3.5 points for WW's own brand. I need to take my little calculator with me next time, but feel like a bit of an idiot working it all out at the refrigerated display tbh! :o

    I had lots to say to everyone as I have read along....but now relying on memory so please forgive me if I miss anyone!

    Hi Skint - you sound like you have been really bus. How fab. Well done. Good to see you back!

    Elly - hope you are settling in - despite all the cleaning!!

    NLID - sounds like you are making real progress!

    Hi Joey - good to see you again!! and you Two Cats!!! Missed you both.


    Hope you enjoyed the chips Em!!

    Not sure I really succeeded at today's mini challenge (love the idea Jo - thank you!) as I spent way to much money in Tesco's BUT I did remember to check my receipt and spotted a 'buy two for £5" offer on pizza express pizzas hadn't gone through (we were having a lazy/easy tea!!). The pizzas were worth $4.99 each, so offer was worth £4.98. I was right and got double the difference....so got £9.96 back...so had free pizza for tea and got one in the freezer too! So can I count that?

    er.....sure there was something else.....hmmmmm

    Hi to Mabel, Munchki, Mambury and Yummy too, oh and Nikki sorry to hear your news.
    Life is a work in progress

    OK Tuesdays mini move for may
    Think about your plan or ideas for dribbling to 10k. Is there an idea, project or part of a project that
    a) it makes sense to do
    and b) you keep putting off because you are unsure you know how to do it or that you have what it takes or just seem to have a resistance to doing.
    Today think about that particular thing and find one tiny small action/ step that you can take towards it that doesn't commit you to completing it or seeing it through but does take you a teeny weeny step towards it. Take that small step.

    oooh we overlapped - thanks Jo - good timing! xxx

    Trust that little voice in your head that says "Wouldn't it be interesting if...";
    And then do it.

    You can carry the mini move from yesterday over but it then increases the pressure which is not really the idea of the mini moves but if it works for you fine.
    some of the mini moves will repeat over the month anyway though.
