I have my old lady heated sheepskin pad thing out Moneysaving insofar as it stops me from resorting to excessive ibuprofen when my fibro plays up.

We had beer battered spam fritters for dinner tonight, will I die? :spam:
I have never had them before but my DH assured me that they are a fine northern delicacy.

The beer was a can that has been in the kitchen since christmas, a freebie from work so used rather than wasted.

I have arrived. Very tired but not in a very bad shape. Will go to dinner soon.

Hello gang

I thought I had better venture in. seeing as I fell into MSE again (I should be doing some work but....). It is great to catch up with what folks have been doing too.

My day has been a bit strange - I was supposed to be running my own networking group this morning but as folks didnt confirm their attendance so I couldnt confirm numbers with the venue, I assumed that no-one was bothered so went networking somewhere else. Well, it seems that folks were bothered and turned up and I wasnt there - I had better dust off the crystal ball and recharge it:rotfl: Still, this mornings's meeting in Birmingham City Centre was productive as I made some great connections and have been asked to organise a business lunch where I can make some money:cool: What might happen is that the breakfast networking meet may just move back to Bham City Centre because people are asking which demonstrates that there is a need.

I did not get home til gone 3pm either because I was wandering about

Hi Hon

Do people have to pay for venue / breakfast etc when they attend your groups.

Could you make attendance dependant on paying a nominal sum via electronic payment / paypal through a portal website so that people are committing to you early? Even a a couple of quid makes people feel like they have "invested"

Talking to a couple of mates in the Networking game they say that is part of the issue - money is paid on the day so if you get up and don't fancy it - well no skin, but a pain in the "arris" for the organiser.

So a portal that people can use form their desks rather that the cash / invoice circle could help you smooth the admin. Point, click, commit IYSWIM?

Good luck for Claire today - I know its a nasty procedure - but remember how much better you feel afterwards.

FW - be kind to yourself -then "go and knock their b****y socks off" - everyone join me in sending positive stuff to FW today as she has a specific goal she wants to achieve this conference that will catapult her forward.

And, ahem, Matrixettes - MrB challenge today. I need to go and sort out something for him now as he has got a buzzy thing in his bonnet this morning

Whilst I am at it - I am sure I must be within a few pounds of a new leaf on my Mortgage Tree - fingers crossed.

Morning Matrix!

Woke up this morning feeling much better about life, the universe and everything. Not entirely sure why, but I am not going to question it. I think it was because I went to the nutritionist last night and she was lovely. Really, really lovely. I had been asked to write a food diary and totally wigged out for some reason and stopped filling it in. Anyway, she put my mind at rest, told me I was doing great, asked if I had weighed myself this month - oh HELL no!! ) and then suggested I go and get weighed on one of those machines in Boots. Not ideal, but okay. I need to summon the courage to see if the weight is coming off. Gulp.

Lots of work to do today, but hopefully have a desk day so I can devote myself to it all day. Then tonight, I am making a batch of chocolate brownies for work. It is my birthday on Saturday, so I thought I would bring in some nice baking for people tomorrow. I have a half day on Friday and my boss is away as well... so Thursday is the best day!

Lots of positive vibes to you all.

Mornin' my lovelies - a bit less wild here today.

Totally fried my brains yesterday trying to find information on the web - it's like falling down the rabbit-hole in Alice in Wonderland - deeper and deeper you go with no way out :eek:. Anyway, I got there in the end.

Today's plan is .... I know not what ....

Positive vibes to FW. Take care all, Thriftyxxx
