Dd enjoyed her show weds but the meeting was cancelled last night (she will go next week maybe) so we both went to see the national theatre live performance at the cinema of man and superman with Ralph fiennes which was brilliant

Love how your diet has dinner plus wine. Sounds like an ideal everyday plan

That's quite a 'to do' list Newgirly, how did you get on? I'm even more envious of your penthouse now we have decided to extend this place. Don't think I can get away with calling it that though as only building above the garage!

newgirly

Of course it could be a penthouse cath

Alchemilla

That really was a heck of a list to work through.

Is there some way you could combine the diet shakes and wine?

I like your thinking Ed

Oh dear, I think I must have a virus on my hudl tablet lots of ads and and I have not been able to reply for a couple of days.

Diet still OK 2.5. Pounds since Fri so far, am very hungry most of the time though but am hoping to adjust soon.


We had birthday drinks at the pub last night for one of the guys at work , then today we took my parents out to the country pub we found a few weeks ago today , and they had a beer festival tent there for the day, so dad and dh were happy we must sound like a couple of lushes

newgirly

Roll on payday ,its been a very long month. This week I have a curry on weds night as birthday girl could not make it last week as she was Ill. Other than that no expenses.

I did promise ds2 some new trainers next month, he is pretty low maintenance and paid towards the last pair over a year ago so thought I'd treat him to some new ones.

I spent a bit in mr t today low cal bread and salad as they had sold out of slimming shakes and bars totally , so I need to exercise some willpower and eat proper food.

Not much of an update really but to be honest there is not much to report
