    Hypno, thought of you yesterday, did Shred (in our house known as 'kidney bean exercises' as I don't own weights and I think you suggested using tins of kidney beans, which I do :D).

    Didn't have tins of kidney beans (or anything else! Not even sprouts! :eek: at all! :eek: VERY bad storecupboarding! :rotfl:).

    Anyway, after scouring the cupboards (not in a cleaning fashion, of course), I landed up with a bottle of Ouzo in one hand, and a bottle of Zeppi's Maltese prickly pear liqueur in the other :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    Thanks PaF. It is indeed a turnaround, and I truly am loving my life. I don't post so much now, because there isn't so much moneywise to talk about (and also, I do spend rather a lot on my social life and lovely clothes etc now, which feels so "wrong" at times on a DFW thread, but it is only what I was previously spending on debt repayments so I am within budget).....but I am keeping things in check!

    Tonight is an evening of ironing, as I have another social weekend ahead of me, so I want to be up to date with everything before I go.....my cleaner came today, so at least the place is lovely and tidy :D

    A very resourceful use of storecupboard ingredients, if I may say, Cheery!!

    sounds dodgy Cheery - glass bottles? :eek:

    We call it Shrek in our house......but still don't get around to it. We use it as a sort of threat. "Do you want to do x or shall we do Shrek?" :p

    What would be more dodgy for me would be that half way through the second set of reps, I would be ripping the tops off the bottles and consuming the contents, however strange they may be!

    I'm guessing shred is some kind of exercise DVD?
    Can we pretend that aeroplanes in the night sky are like shooting stars, cause I could really use a wish right now...

    Tis a killer exercise DVD of the highest order! Jillian Michaels is the scary woman who puts you through hell.

    But it gets results.

    :D

    Morning Hypno and thanks for the hug last night. I have sent a CV off to a purveyor of fine frocks and shoes which you are fond off and have heard through a colleague that they want to interview me!!!!! VERY excited.

    Oh my word.....I am very excited for you Souk!!! I am sending you very very positive vibes for this one :D:D:D

    Talking of frocks and shoes - I am off to a ball tomorrow night.....am trying to talk myself out of buying a new dress, as I have a couple that are good enough, and which have not been seen by this particular group of friends.....but sadly I don't seem to be listening to me :o:rotfl:
