Hi everyone
I am so annoyed - I have just done a hug post now back from holiday in Spain and just before DH's party for his 60th on Saturday. Just so very tired and busy with party preps can't type out again.
Just wanted to say I have missed you all, love and hugs to those having problems, congratulations to those celebrating.
I will try and keep up once back to work and the party is over with. At least 45 we are catering for on Saturday and hoping weather good for overspill to garden. Grass cut today and garden furniture well and truly scrubbed with Stardrops (as apartment in Spain - took bottle out with me!).
Love and hugs to all.

GB- Glad you enjoyed Spain, we fly out on Friday for 10 days, how did you pack the Stardrops to get it out there??
One other tip for packing, if you are going to be struggling for the weight limit, use the nylon bags rather than cases. They are usually very cheap, and dont get damaged as easy as a case. I got some from local market. The bags with wheels on take almost half your limit before your start!

Hi All,:wave:
A big thank you for the birthday wishes. Had a lovely day, OH had the day off, (its our wedding anniversary as well today) and we have been to Ludlow for the day, a long but beautiful drive, some amazing scenery. Had a quick trip around Ludlow castle and a lovely lunch in a fantastic Olde Worlde place, with the most fantastic hm cakes, they bring you out a cake stand with a massive selection to choose from.

Glad you enjoyed it Sweet Pea ! I work in Ludlow, the place you had your tea sounds like DeGreys have been there myself and gave my Mum a voucher for a cream tea there for Mothers day! Its a very pretty town!
Anniestar - glad you found the card, I hate losing things!
Welcome back GrannyBroon! glad you had a good holiday!
Been to SlimmingWorld and have lost a pound, thats 4 in 2 weeks so not too bad. My sister was slimmer of the week with a 3lb loss so am very pleased for her as she's trying really hard!:T
Just got in from work, 2 days off now:j but have to work Sat Sun and Mon:rolleyes:
Catch you all in the morning!
take care xxxDo what you love :happyhear0 -
donny-gal - Just put the Stardrops bottle in a sealable freezer bag in my case.
Another tip - we brought back loads of gin and brandy in our empty water bottles. Just poured in to save weight in the suitcases and sealed with insulation tape. It really does save on weight in suitcases as glass is very heavy.
Love

well done on weight loss taplady:j and to your sister:j
