    Lots of 'get well' wishes heading to your Nan from me then. :)

    Not nice to have redundancy possibly hanging over you. We are probably going to be in the same boat next year but we've been there before and survived. It sort of makes it worse when it's hanging over Christmas though, doesn't it?

    Yay to selling the caravan and ditching the site fees! The money will pay for a few chips and Lambrinis :D. Oh dear, now I feel hungry and I can still taste dinner! Chips have to be near the top of my list of favourite foods... even after I've eaten spiced bread pudding and custard!

    Thankyou sweetie, much appreciated x
    Nan is magnificent and I hate to see her so poorly...
    As for us, we will be fine whatever happens, skint perhaps... but other people have it so much worse...
    Chips tonight and chicken bucket (courtesy of mysterious shopping) tomorrow night...better budget for Rennies and Clearasil on Sunday:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Ooooh, chicken and chips! :D (And Rennies & Clearasil, LOL!)

    Keep on keeping on, you'll get there, and I'm sure your support means a lot to your Nan.

  • Another free listing weekend on ebay for items £1 or over and so I have no real excuse not to get listing on Sunday. Other than the old chestnut of not having the packaging for my vinyl but I guess as I see the bids come in I'll have no excuse to not get hold of some packaging. Am not convinced tomorrow's 4am run will happen but would like to think it would. Most exciting development today tho has to be the moneysaving potential of http://nyan.cat which could lead me and my family to cancel our Sky subscription. It is far more gripping than anything else I have ever seen.

    Was up and about at 4am but the sound of angry drunks outside made me decide to not go for a run, it's been nice having a controversy-free Friday and I want to follow it up with a smooth Saturday. Weight's trundled back up to 22-07 (BMI 38.38) but that's no big deal, I know it'll plummet back on track again soon - that's the real advantage of this diary and daily weigh-ins, I can see how the pattern emerges and so don't get disheartened by any blips now.

    Aha, MrB, we can now see the pattern emerging from your daily weigh ins - here's to doing it in your own way, good for you!

    Northern Lassy - positive vibes for you and your nan, as well as MrB and his family.

    Ebay - yep, after abandoning my camera in the back of DT's car at our mse meetup and then her very kindly posting it back to me, I'm back on the case, I'll be listing stuff too.
