    Went for a womble at 10pm ish - the sada carpark was like a flaming swimming pool......not a good idea. OH had been conned into coming with me under the pretence of needing petrol. He thinks I have a serious problem - bah......that was only because he had to take a break from drinking Coors Light which he claims is "hiss".

    MissLabelle:D

    Oooh going on a cold fri night at 10pm, now that's dedication! Wish I did that:( need to, spent way too much on groceries last wk. If the Sada Fivers ((c) to you:)) start up, be a doll and gimme one:D

    :hello::hello:



    Ah big hugs:(Uni's hard but when they properly fly the nest it must be even harder, but more "me time" for you now, you deserve it xx

    Yes it is a bit harder, didn't help that DD1 was bit upset too as she has realised her BF works later than she thought so she will be alone in the evenings. Have said I will visit one evening. Bit of a jaunt but if it helps her settle in until she finds new friends. :)

    She will back with her BF next weekend for family BBQ, week late I know but only time we could get whole of family together.

    Hope you will be popping in more often. :A
    Miss hearing tales of MasterLala losing his phone, getting stuck in snow and the rest. ;)

    It's good to see you back too Mymerrywidow, glad you are much better. :)

    Hmmm, think `I need to set you a question now and again to keep your mind occupied Savvy ;)

    Nectar Adpoints (nooo...:( - is that all you can talk about on a Saturday night??:rotfl:) aren't letting me have more points - no new ads:mad:. I've already gone and calculated (yesterday as it happens) the approximate points rate that I am getting - added up all my points history and divided by the number of weeks. Worked out at about 125 points (no, I haven't remembered the exact number, to thousands of decimal places!:D) per week - half of the claimed maximum (which is always 'subject to availability' anyway) but still not bad - an extra £2.50 each month onto everything else. My points do seem to go up quite faster than I actually spend!:D:money:

    I somehow feel thinner this week too:)

    Must be all those good vibes rubbing off:)
    My work trousers felt like that the other day, it's a fab feeling isn't it? :T

    Well my clothes were fitting slightly better until my chinese takeaway last night and I didn't even enjoy it after half a plate I felt sick, but forced myself to finish it. :o

    Don't think I should have as I have eaten loads more today. :( Think I might cut down lots tomorrow, not eat normally but not fast either. I think I didn't stop to think about what I was eating today but I did have other things on my mind. ;)
