!!!!!!? I think half my previous post got eaten on the way to the forum. Am sure I wrote something pithy about homemade pizzas and expressed my glee that my anti-windowcleaner device on the side gate had once again worked its magic. Oh well, have a screaming boy missing his mummy who's involved in some posh online conferencing thing upstairs but unwisely we've left the flipping baby monitor on but can't find the remote unit so her voice is booming out from somewhere in the lounge from hell. Hopefully a good dose of The Wiggles will cure his ills.

Ooer - sausage roll eating ex football playing courier and murderous bathroom sellers - no wonder my OH escaped the streets of South London and ran away to live in the hills He does have similar stories I have to say.

Good luck with speech tomorrow - you will be fine:)

Good luck with your speech

MrBloater

Speech will be fine - what I love most about events like this, or meetings with 'officialdom' is the look of blind panic on my bosses' faces when I start to open my mouth. I'm the only one of the five people talking at the event tomorrow who had to submit his speech in advance so it could be vetted by the powers-that-be. Thankfully being a bit handy with words means they haven't sussed that the main thrust of the speech is me saying how I should be running the place and that they are too young and inexperienced to be taken seriously.

re. the eating and drinking.

once i have had even ONE drink, i find the munchies start - be it before OR after dinner.

then starts the bread + butter, cheese and biscuits, lashings of haribos etc

so, i try to avoid alcohol in the week (note TRY) or don't start it till i'm eating my dinner.

i also get snack-sized biccys and choc bars, so that when i'm good i'm very good. but if i'm bad at least if i eat several of them it only adds up to one or two FULL bars.....:rotfl:

i've recently discovered morrisons mini jaffa cakes, which at 21 cals each are VERY orangey and chocolatey:D

The above quote is just classic. Hope the speech went well.

And just a hello to Northern Lassy as I am to my shame a fellow Labrini drinker, I love it so there!

I find that drinking alcohol (even a glass or two) disturbs my sleep pattern so I've knocked my cheeky L*mbrini habit on the head as a trial measure...What a classy tipple! Cheap, fizzy and a bit common, (a little bit like me) :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:I sometimes send my husband to the Sparshop for it at night if the craving gets too strong, he has to stand in the queue with all the other L*mbrini buyers who he says "smell of fake tan and go shopping in their pyjamas"...ahh, I just realised that he must really love me after all
