    Not nice at all! I've had a dead mouse dropped on my head while asleep in bed, that's not very nice either :eek:

  • Have you wasted away to nothing and are so weak you can't update, since you won't go into the kitchen? ;) :rotfl:

    Oh My gosh if only I had wasted away to nothing. I have been doing my 10k steps and the sun is shining down here at the moment which makes life so much better. How are you

  • I just walked into town and got another free lunch from Delice de France, and since it runs out tomorrow, picked up an Uppercrust for tomorrow's lunch too (if it makes it to tomorrow... it may unexpectedly become tonight's dinner!) :D

    Also got a free Mars Bar from the offer on the MSE email yesterday (and showed the girl in the co-op how to process it).

    I might be saving money, but I'm definitely NOT losing pounds!!

    Still, all the exercise I'm getting when I'm walking to get the free lunch more than makes up for it.

    Well done on your 10k steps! :T

    I have about 5 pedometers at home. Should probably dig one out and count all this exercise!
