Sorry to be cheeky here, just I remember someone posted a recipe for a sweet potato I think it was curry, was a slimming world recipe, I can't seem to find it, if someone could find it for me I'd appreciate it xxxx

I've just had pot noodle sandwiches for dinner, so bad but it's the first proper thing I've managed to eat since Sunday and it tasted soooo good, just hoping I don't regret it x

My god I swear I might as well just give up at work. We are so understaffed its ridiculous. So today was of our team couldn't come in because his baby boy has meningitis (:() so of course I expected the rest of the team would pull together to help with covering his work for the rest of this week. Of all the people that could possible help. What do I get:
1 had a dodgy burger last night so is going home in 10 minutes
1 is on holiday this week
1 is out of the office today and has no suggestions
1 had a toenail removed on monday, and is 'too ill' to help
So I'm sat at my desk, 6 months pregnant, in tears on moneysaving expert, trying to sort things by myself with no clue how to get started. I HATE my job. Can't wait to get out of here

Ok, repeat after me...

"I am not a miracle worker"
"I can only do what I can do"
"The world will not end if things don't get done"
"I'll be on maternity leave soon "

Maybe put in writing to management about the unrealistc workload and whilst you will of course do your best (as usual) you are worried that things will slip through the net/not get done to their usual standards. It covers your backside a bit if you do miss anything (but if they're horrible they may just say tough )

Roll on hometime!

pot noodles are yum yum. thanks for that recipe. i will steal it too. are we allowed to eat recipes from Slimming world/ WW?

Slimming World is the only midwife approved eating/diet plan Rups. You are actually allowed to go to groups etc whilst pregnant so using the recipes is fine x

Also nice in South Croydon is Albert's Table - it's more of a 'special occasion' restaurant as it's quite expensive (and Michelin rated!) but really lovely. It was a surprise actually, when I moved in this direction, that we didn't have to go into town to get really good food or for celebratory meals.

I can't go in there since it featured on gypsy weddings...Swanley and his missus went there for dinner...they are from Caterham... I know too much…

Rups – I was told they would ring if there was a problem with the nuchal within 2 working days! I took not hearing as a good sign J

Ikkle – I am not using the right words at the moment either… numbers and letters are even worse!

Nutella – what bag did you get? I want to google and be nosy!!!

Rups & Sa-ra-ra – If you fancy venturing further out there is a lovely Italian in Coulsdon called Il Carretto & a wicked (but expensive) indian in Warlingham called India Dining!

Very quick post whilst I am remembering. Saw this and thought it might be suitable for someone (I'm still trying to decide whether to get a moses basket or just use the carrycot).

LMAO at my OH, a scrap metal man just came and knocked on our door and asked if he could take one of OH's BMX's out of the yard. Thats his pride and joy lol, they'd have more chance of him agreeing to them taking me lol x

Thats cool ikkle. i used to be on that and actually lost a lot of weight gradually. cant be bothered to diet but am looking like a fatty now. this moring i had a croissant and then another pastry (palmier) and this girl told me off. she said icant eat too much otherwise i will find it hard to lose later. i then felt like a pig.:(

dizsie thats funny. I watched a bit of that (the 1st series only) and then got bored. lol Albert's Table not Albert square. what am i on? hehe ah wish we had a car so we could venture out to eat. we hardly even go to South Croydon unless we are either dining with friends or like what we did yesterday. this group dining thing came about from a guy who started tweeting and arranginf dinners around Croydon and Purley, so through our friends, we joined. Its on twitter though. see if you fancy joining? its so cool to meet other local people. if you are, can give you the twitter address to follow.
