SA you are an inspiration. I've planned next weeks meals after your impressive list.
Have you bought your ice skates yet- I've only ever been ice skating once when I first started going out with dh when I was 19....I went over on my backside - a skater jumped over me :eek::eek: whilst I was on the floor. 3 months of work with a fracture in the base of my spine.....I've never had the urge to go again can't think why :rotfl:January spends - £587.580 -

Pretty impressed that you can ice skate though - always wanted to do it as a kid but no ice rink near where I lived. Now I’m afraid the time has passed.........:)Finally Debt Free! - July 2016 🌟

All the meals have been lovely so far. The soup was a WW recipe I hadn't tried before and it's gorgeous.
I'm not doing an AFD today, I've been resisting the bit of wine in the fridge left over from the weekend, just enough for a glass, but tonight I've got enough points left to enjoy it while I'm watching Girlfriends
Went to the gym at lunchtime 2/3 sessions so far this week
Can't believe I've got a sore throat and the snuffles again, only just got rid of the last cold. I blame it on Mr SA coughing and sneezing all over.
Despite the sore throat, I'm feeling much more positive now after the slight technical hitch last weekI get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)0 -
SA well done on gym sessions, I have done 3 this week and can hardly move.
