    I really fancy a fry up but I don't have black pudding :(

    I do - pop up the road, we're having some for brekkie. Proper Irish stuff, none of that poncy Northern England nonsense :D.

    Dearest Ms. Gallygirl,

    I hope this finds you well, and the weather has been somewhat pleasant in your area of Great Britain.

    I myself have been somewhat perturbed of late, regarding unnecessary changes to my body, which I fear, may be as a result of a poor dietary intake. To this end, I have concluded (upon the most excellent suggestion of my very dear friend, AJ Money), to commence with immediate effect a 'food diary' in which to document one's eating habits.

    I would be very much delighted if you would care to join me in this most exciting of adventures?

    R.S.V.P

    Ms. Nattypants

    Oh, ok then as you asked so nicely :D. Seeing as how I am back at fat club, my diary will be perfect, with 5 fruit & veg every hour, no chocolate, alcohol, cheese etc. Unless offered it and it would be rude to refuse :).

    I have no coffee in the house, this is a major disaster of catastrophic proportions.

    Also I am down to only 2 loo rolls.

    And don't even get me STARTED on the biscuit situation.


    In other non-mortgage related news, today is most definitely cooler....almost chilly

    Have you seen your weather forecast for the next 10 days :eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:? Makes mine look fabulous. Does mean my newly installed shed guttering will get tried out. Which is :T and :eek: in equal measures :o.

    S'pose it will save me from watering the garden, speaking of which this is the first year I have grown potatoes - the virginity of which I know will come as quite a shock.

    Anyway, flowers have now appeared and according to my sources (namely my friend, and subsequently the Internet), this means my potatoes are ready. Yes?

    natty, have you not seen the episode of Still Game where Jack sits with his feet in a washing up bowl filled with water & ice ~ tsk, you could have saved yourself that £3!! :p

    Tomato crisps: I've definitely had them in (Northern!!) England but haven't seen them there for ages. A bit boggin' if I remember correctly.

    I shall, they are lovely, bit sweet though so I can see why others might not like them.

    I remember the Still Game episode, the old folk down here will probably still be wearing several layers and taking a travel rug to put round them on the bench at the beach:D
