    You have us!!!

    I've come to the conclusion that men (not all men but most of them) just have a clever way with words that make us feel bad - either that or society has brought us women up thinking that we're more likely to be wrong than right...

    Still, luckily Mr BR and I seem to be 'repaired' and back on track. I get the impression that I felt less 'on track' than he did last week although I think he picked up on it and did make some effort to make me realise that I was important to him, which is always nice.

    So, I succumbed and had two forrero roche (which I can't spell) chocolates yesterday (and might well have some more today, we'll see) as a neighbour gave us a box yesterday in thanks for a favour. They were just sitting there looking lovely and, well, I couldn't resist. *sigh*

    Ferrero roche (I don't know how to spell it either) are the new weight loss aid - I haven't had any any my weight has been the same for a few days, so that proves it. Go ahead and enjoy.

    Glad things are looking better for you and Mr BH. :)

    Now there you have a point... could your share go in the freezer? Mind you I don't know what they'd be like after freezing.

    ETA: I had a choccie biscuit yesterday - so I need to get back on the wagon too. :(

    That's the thing isn't it? You have choc, you want more!
    Mr BR is popping to the shop on his way home for a couple of bits to tide us over to Saturday (pay day) and I had to resist the temptation to ask him for more choc!

    Evil Choc!!
