I have conkers all over my flat, and i have only had one spider so far this year. I say they do work but others will say its a myth.
I cant say if they do or not - i tried it last year and my dog kept trying to eat them haha!!! though the baby brute from the other room, found its way to my bedroom last night! darted across the floor and scared the hoohah outta me (til i grabbed my slipper:D)
ok so today
B: banana and a pineapple stick from as-dah....
L: ?? not sure yet, depends on time, as i have to go lodge a cheque at the post office. so maybe soup on the go, or a deli sandwich ....pizza chicken!!!! :T ( i looooooooooooooooooooooove that stuff) with new pots and veg. HEA is my cheese, though i may only put half on and have a cup of tea with a sniff of milk in it...

Does anyone use minimins? I only found it the other day but i am hooked.I love your posts. They are full of wisdom & encouragement
Gemmie, Nessie - welcome to you both, depression caused me to gain loads, so I know how you feel. I turned to SW because I wanted to eat healthy - the weight loss came naturally. My advice is stick to it, don't avoid anything, just have everything in moderation. (It's taken me 6 months to work that out) Oh and Sunflower Seeds and Pine Nuts are a must for salad toppers considering your "future" plans.
Where You Working - conkers worked fine for me in my old house ..this one the spiders are bigger, fatter, darker and not afraid to throw the damn things back at me :eek:
I've won Slimmer of the Month 4 times (march to june) and recieved 1 fridge magnet. 12 times i've won the fruit basket for Slimmer of the Week. I think it depends how much the consultant spends on stuff as to what you get. The new group I go to has a Christmas raffle to win a prize. Colour in a bauble on a tree per lost 1lb, 7 baubles = one raffle entry.
She's also arranged for a night out for the group. Far more social than the last place
RFD... great newsw hope all goes well.rainbow~chuck me some Cowboy pie~Ta muchly.
FOOD FIGHT!!!!(sorry had to)

Just to add my twopenneth: at our group the SoW basket is made up from low/synfree stuff that members are encouraged to bring along every week (fruit, beans, mushy peas etc). If SoW hasn't stayed, they get their certificate eventually but the basket gets raffled. Raffle prize is always a box of fruit and/or veg which consultant buys from raffle money the week before. Quality/quantity of prizes has gone down a lot in the year+ i've been going. i think that's partly because fewer people buy tickets and what you can buy for your money's gone down too (another symptom of recession).0

True maman. I have seen just one thing in a basket for SoW. But the raffle was only good when one of the more experienced consultants was covering our group. Otherwise it was what ever was on special at Ts.
In thing at the minute seems to be promoting books and giving away the menu for one of the items in said cook book. Plenty of spices. I have seen chip trays and the like too though.0 -
