thanks milann thats lovely of you to say, he was, a very special person, heart of a giant and a laugh to match. one of those rare personalities. far too good for this world sadly hence taken so early. I've just had a massive mention on our local radio station (harborough fm, have a listen in online some time peeps! ) and been invited in for an interview to tell them all about the challenges and hopefully get sponsorship!! fab!!! I dont have a voice for radio sadly!! but hey!!

Everyone has a voice for radio - just speak a lot slower than you would normally. You don't have the looks for radio - coz you iz a babe... :cool:

awwww z you made me blush! thank you

Red... if only i was rich! havent had time to stop of late but having a good financial review this afternoon when i get home and then.... I sleep!

Hi milann! hi everyone else. :wave:

Well today brings another knackered day at work. I had a lovely evening out with D last night. got to telford at 1730, straight in the swimming pool for a nice swim. changed had a lovely warm nightime walk around ironbridge (I love that place) had a gorgeous thai meal at a restaurant right opposite the bridge and then back to the hotel and sleeeeeeeep!! 2300-0445 last night! a bit more than usual but i cant wait to get in this afternoon at roughly 1530 and if i want to sleep for 14 hours straight then i can do

so... i have made 2 decisions, firstly, no spend days are something i struggle with, and despite allocating my self £20 a week for spending I am spending this on trash. so therefore I dont really need to spend any necessary spends until monday morning. therefore I am going to aim for 4 no spend days in a row as of and including today.... gulp!
also, I am going to join my local weightwatchers. I cant get my weight down and i know its mainly as a result of sugary drinks although i have a very healthy vegetarian diet. so a bit of guidance and discipline to sign on and get weighed each week, along with some dietary guidance may be what i need. I will google it today and let you all know where and when i am going.
Finally I am about to have a look at, and enter, the peterborough half marathon....
wish me luck!!

lots of love a trying very hard to stay awake pancake.

good luck with WW - and if you need any help manipulating your points, then I am here for expert guidance

I'm also aiming for a NSD - had one yesterday and have pledged to do 10 this month, but the reality is I need more than that if I want to survive September, so definitely out to bags one today.....we can do this!

I can't enter Peterborough until I know what is happening ski wise, but if I am free on that date I will happily do so.....will keep you informed, although my toenails would be happy if I never ran another mile again right now

Hi P, hope you get a good sleep tonight (this afternoon?)

Re Weightwatchers - I've been using this website http://www.myfitnesspal.com/ which is free, to track food and exercise, you can add people as friends to nag, er, encourage you too - there's a few DFWers on there Might be worth a look at before you spend money on WW? It does kinda sound like you already know where you're going wrong

Oh my days, how addictive is that site :eek:

I've heard people talk about it before, but clicked on your linky and signed up this morning. I can see it becoming a bit of an obsession. It took me an hour to decide what to have for lunch, because what I was going to have looked bad on my page. Will spend the afternoon thinking about dinner. I'm even tempted to do a bit of exercise. Unheard of :cool:

Well done on navigating Telford Pania. I'm still having nightmares from my visit to our Bun last week. All those blimmin roundabouts
