    Randomname, comeback and join, where'd ya go? xx

    NRA, congrats on completing the challenge :T join in mine for some more :D

    Angie, you have come such a long way and are such an inspiration xxx

    Bis, lovely to 'see' you xx

    Marru, good luck for today honey :)

    Maman, the pork is the nuts! I did it yesterday with a Mr T's value shoulder, just under 4 quid and fed 5 of us (it said 6 on the packet ;)), the crackling didn't turn out as well as previous but I wasn't bothered this time as we all ate such a lot on hols that we need to cut down and pure fat is not going to help :rotfl: but I must say that this was the best meat I've cooked so far :T

    Right, I'm going to watch an ep of Eastenders before I get ready for work, trying to catch up on last weeks before it's on tonight!

    Speak to you all later :wave:

    JO - I'll join your challenge for 2 nights.
    What do we do when we fall? We get up, dust ourselves off and start walking in the right direction again. Perhaps when we fall, it is easy to forget there are people along the way who help us stand and walk with us as we get back on track.

    Morning all!

    Maman - wish you could join us too!:(

    Angie - welcome back. Know what you mean of other forums - only been on a couple myself (other than this website) and find most people like to be confrontational...don't know why??:(

    Was up early today....6am my eyes sprung open (Not as early as Jo's but still bleugh enough for me!!)

    About to go and wrestle exercise bike in from the garage. We put all the fitness equipment out there so it could be our gym.....and then promptly ignored it. So going to drag it indoors again. Thing weighs a ton though - have a feeling it'll kill me getting it up the garden steps!!:rotfl:

    Can't wait till this weekend coming.....OH is taking me and Piglet away for two nights to a Premier Inn in Birmingham. We are going to have a couple of days of doing fun, cheapish things with Piglet. A little treat before he starts school in September. So I think this week will feel like a very long one!

    Anyways...best get off and get some housework done. Have good mornings all!


    Miss P
