I love Allo Allo
Still has me in stitches on the re runs.
Great news about the weight loss DT, don't worry about the top- it is not a size 18 they are fitted to measure these days, i am sure the glamorous *naturally* well endowed ladies such as Sophia Loren, would not be saying that about her tops..She would be flaunting her decolletage for all its worth.
I could get another Allo Allo pun in there about the Fallen Madonna, but someone beat me to itBlackadder: Am I jumping the gun, Baldrick, or are the words 'I have a cunning plan' marching with ill-deserved confidence in the direction of this conversation?

I am sorry I have neglected my diary I have been reading threads but not posting much as it has been a full time job introducing our little girl to her new parents.
Our little angel left today so we now have to adjust to life without her.:(
I have posted my 50 day challenge on Memory Girls' thread but I thought I had better repost it here so that I can keep an eye on what I have achieved so here goes
1. Decide rationally whether we want to continue fostering or not all too much emotion for that decision at the moment but needs to be made
2. Fix my final ideal weight and achieve this (I have lost 5 stone in five and a half months :Tnow have to decide whether I need to lose another stone or not)
3. Sort out my capsule wardrobe but as I am going shopping with Souk that should hopefully be pain free although at the moment my wardrobe has lots of empty space as I have got rid of loads of stuff that didn't fit
4. Tell my wonderful OH that I love him every day (25 years married on Tuesday) want to make sure we are still together for the next 25 yearsalso want to make sure that we arrange regular date times - us time always seems to be at the bottom of the list
5. Do some regular exercise
6. Sort out what it is I really want to do as a job/business and make positive steps towards it
7. Be sorted for Christmas
8. Sell my Dolls House
9. Be up to date with all accounts and paperwork
10. Decorate my little girls bedroom
Phew that's quite a lot for 50 days but as I will have no small children to look after during the day for the first time in seven years there is really no excuse
I have set my ideal weight today I am going to lose another 10 lbs rather than a stone as I don't want to risk exposing any more wrinkles than strictly necessaryso that's something towards no. 2.
I am also going out for lunch with OH tomorrow for our anniversary so that is no. 4.:j
Nothing else done other than purchase some cream paper for some paperwork that needs doing as I have allowed myself a feel sorry for me day. Did go for a cuppa with my OD which was nice. However 50 days is not long and there is a lot to achieve so I can't afford too much wallow time

This is so sad about the little girl ..... I hope you're okay. I hope she's okay. Don't blame you for having a feel sorry day - I think you need some luxury, DT

A difficult day but you have given her a wonderful start that she would not have otherwise had.
Good luck with the 50 day challenge, you have achieved so much already and these things will finish off so many of the challenges you set yourself previously.

Thats really nice of them. DT do you get any back up support for fostering ie counselling. Not suggesting you need it but just wondered if any of the family were struggling would they support you?0
