    Is that when you expected it to be Benben? Do you think you will attend? (that is, if you are not needed as a witness!) At last the end is in sight.

    I thought it would be nearer to Christmas so am pleased that its earlier, but typical its bang in the middle of the summer holidays :cool: Its expected to last 3 days, but maybe up to a week, so I can't make any plans for that time, but they won't know until much nearer whether I need to go along. I don't know whether I will go as a viewer if they don't need me, I do have that option as I won't be at work, but I don't know whether I would want to or not.

    However, it does mean the diet / exercise plan now has a finish date in sight, I have 6 months to whip this body into shape, and my God is this a good motivator to do it this time :D:D

    Aaah, friday night here you are again, and very much welcome :D

    Mum had to call 999 this morning, dad had fallen out of bed in the night (they have separate rooms), and dind't call her and couldn't get up so stayed there all night, she found him this morning and couldn't move him so had to call 999 to help :(:( He's okay now, just a bit bruised. They checked him over and said his blood sugar levels are like a diabetics so have told her to get an appointment at the doctors asap to have it checked. She really doesn't need any more things wring with him :o

    Other than that theres not much else to report today, tomorrow we're getting the train to town to buy ds some new trainers. Then he's going to his dads tomorrow night and I'm out with a friend, then he'll be home on sunday :)

    Hmm, well I have stuck to my ww points, so I guess that helps towards utterlyfab :) I am not eating my bonus points this week as I'm going out for a curry next wednesday with friends, so am saving my extra points to allow for that, and it will also be just after weigh-in so will have all week to shift it before the next weigh-in :D
