    I'd like to join in again....I've got 18 days at work this month so I'll go for 12....I know I won't manage 18!

    So far this week there's been a cheese sandwich and today a chicken salad.....2/12

    I'm quite enjoying doing this as it does make me think about lunch, instead of just thinking.....can't be bothered, and buying something on the way to work!

    LTW no. 4 is a cheese sandwich, banana and half a fruit scone. Breakfast to work was a piece of brioche with free coffee from the Induction programme.

    Morning All :)

    What are you all having for your LTW today? I was planning on going food shopping yesterday, but my son was rushed into hospital, so i spent the afternoon there instead. This means that i dont really have anything i can make in advance. But i finish work at 1pm today, and then i am going straight to Aldi to do my food shopping.

    So I'll have a late lunch, probably just some sandwiches again, with fruit and seeds/nuts.

    My day off today, DS1 on study leave, but our lunch is a fridge/cupboard raiding. Cheese and tomato quesadillas and tuna and tomato quesadillas and a whole pack of easy peelers.

    Yes, thanks marmite. He has an ongoing problem with his ankle and never goes a few months without badly spraining it. I had a message from school saying they had taken him there, and i knew what had happened instantly. I think he has HMS, but the GP isn't willing to look into it as it doesnt happen often enough.
