    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort
    :) Mortgage Balance = £0 :)

    Marathons eh? Showing one's age there! I will still have cheese sometimes as I do like a baked potato at college but the wensleydale with apricots that is only eaten between meals as a snack shall be banished:o

    Well I haven't baked but I ironed and sewed a button on to a pair of trousers for DS, apart from that it has mainly been chocolate eating on the sofa - bloopers from Deadly 60 is now available on the iplayer and I would recommend it to any fans:D

    I've been to the gym and as DS is watching the footie I think I'm going to give the microwave crisps from takeaway secret a try - I'm pretending they are healthier than our usual choices :o

    Ooh, my DD2 loves Deadly 60 so I'll tell her about the blooper programme, thanks :D

    What were the crisps like?? I've got the takeaway book (hasn't everyone on MSE?! ;)) but haven't really made much out of it yet.

    Btw, cheese with bits of fruit in it = major _pale__pale_
