I feel such tenuous grip on who I thought I was these days that I think this is for me. It's a speck in the ocean of what is wrong with the way I look, but its something I can do something about. It's a control thing.
Btw, zag, five two diet I have been chuffed with, definitely losing 'size' but weighed myself and have actually put on weight. Whether its slowing down the inevitable, or whether its fluid or what I don't know.
In any case, I feel ok on it, and that's health wise, important too.
I've definitely lost size (and some chin:)), but not seen the scales move so much. If I had to pick one, I would rather it was that way round.0 -
I wish there was some hypothetical way for the email to get "accidentally" forwarded to the hypothetical wife, which would be what the hypothetical emailer deserves.
The temptation to post the email on facebook, with a comment like, "I received this, clearly by mistake: anyone at tonights "do" feel it could have been meant for them?"
But that would be mean.:D
Easiest thing is to ignore, though I might be tempted to email back, to ensure the message has got through that you are not interested. Just in case the hypothetical emailer intends sending 12 red roses tomorrow.I'm a Forum Ambassador on the housing, mortgages & student money saving boards.

I'm surprised that daily mail journalists found the time to write that article given how much time they spend producing articles about tamara ecclestone.
Still, they got it right on MMR so we should probably pay attention....wait a minute.0 -

Ha! But couldn't do that unless I could be sure the situation wasn't at all my fault. Clearly something gave the wrong idea.
Address not known, should be safe. Chances are in the cold, sober light of day there is no longer an ongoing issue anyway.0 -

I keep telling Mrs McT she has the body of an 18 year old.
So she should probably give it back before she gets it wrinkly....:D“The great enemy of the truth is very often not the lie – deliberate, contrived, and dishonest – but the myth, persistent, persuasive, and unrealistic.

thats so kind:o

I feel there is a lot wrong with the way I look, it gets me down a lot. Probably because by virtue of my first career and expectations it was quite important. I don't care what people look like, i like people not their shells, but I do think I make some judgements or assumptions on some things.
But thank you, your kind words have moved me, a lot.0
