I'm deliberately not joining in the posting how much has gone in each day. I know if I start to keep track of it, I'll want to spend it. I just put whatever I've got spare every day and then forget about it, so I have no idea how much is in mine now!0

My head is well and truly rested I can't help being efficient! 
It's the secretary in me, you know I like to be ahead of the game, being one of the only male's on here you have to be :rotfl:
Have a great day hun, try to stay out of the darn rain X
Hiya sparky, oh you're efficient to the end for sure and your secretarial skills are absolutely second to none.
We've a couple more males on here now, watch out for that "ny1?" (or summat like that) he needs a close eye on, though suspect circus 48 will be less trouble.
You have a good day 'n all sparks, not raining down yer yet, well looks lie a bit of drizzle just starting now. We'm in for a lot of it though so look out as it'll never know when to stop.
Hi there LC 2. Everything ok with you and yours I hope, must be if you're off looking for roadkill, go on beat sparky to it!!! :j
Hi GAP and what a great break to be able to look forward to. You have yourself a terrific time!

Good to see you too, Greenbynature and congratulations on stopping smoking, I know exactly what that's like, so very well done!!! :T:T:T

Me too! I like this strategy. No idea how much is in mine, and I'm not setting a target so whatever happens, come December I'm nicely surprised.
I almost took some out for something silly the other day, but couldn't get the sellotape off easily enough so gave up. Apparently it seems my willpower needs a bit of work.5:2 diet devotee, frugal recipe creator, pretty excellent cook, pretty terrible housewife.0 -
