    Thanks guys. I have but the OU don't do my course sadly! My uni course will only be eight hours a week despite being full time. So I will be looking for a job!

    Yeah I'm now going through google Red, and I was from fashion chat :)! It is a major slog and I haven't even hit anywhere yet... nevermind I will do!

    These toffee crisps are mini and 99cals, but I've had two, soooo defeating the object.. :-D

    Grrr frustrating day... keep getting stupid email queries from the same person and am very tempted to tell them to b*gger off!

    Texted Mr Squizz to see if he wanted to go swimming tonight.. he says maybe, but there's a film on that looks good, but it starts before I finish work. I look at cinema website, see that film finishes tomorrow, suggest I arrange to finish work early tomorrow so we can go. He says it's not a good reason to finish work early (they would be fine I'm sure, I could have a shorter lunch, and it's not like I do it all the time), that it won't be Orange Wednesday thing tomorrow, so we'll just have to wait for the DVD. And do I want to go swimming? Bring back the rolling eyed smiley!

    11 days is very impressive!

    Now it is somehow "easier" for me to meet him at home (20+ mins walk for me) and then drive to the pool, than to meet him at the pool (10 mins walk for me). Oh well at least he has made a decision.

    Billie, it's cos of K. He knows I can't eat it, he won't eat it round me in case I'm tempted. It really needed to be done but I did have some god-awful withdrawal symptoms.
