    TOTM always does it for me too - but I suspect that might be that it makes me want to eat more chocolate! :rolleyes: Good luck with the veggies.

    Thanks mizmir! I suspect a lot of it was/is stress over Dr Dragon - I got on the scales this morning and not only had I lost the weight but I am quite a bit down as well! Be interesting to see how it pans out on Wednesday.

    Re Dr Dragon - he has an interview on Friday :j:j:j, and we have been into his old University and he can see the careers advisors there so that is another good thing. Oh and we dropped in at his place of work (we knew his boss would not be in :rotfl:) and had a word with the head of admin - she is going to help arrange a meeting with HR and NOT his boss as we explained that at the moment his boss is one of the stress causing items!

    So watch this space!
    Do not meddle in the affairs of Dragons, for thou art crunchy and good with catsup :D

    We are watching this space avidly. Give Mr.D my very best wishes for the interview. I know he doesn't know me, but positive vibes are on their way.

    Thanks BOB - it would be great if he gets the job and basically starts there as soon as we get back from hols in mid July - it would mean that at the most he would have 3 weeks still at the old place and that is liveable I think!

    Hi BOB - um I think you only need to keep everything crossed on Friday otherwise you will get very uncomfortable! :rotfl:

    We have a timeshare in Wales (used to be Mum and Dad's but they passed it over to us), so other than food we have nothing else to pay for!

    Great news about the interview Dragon - positive vibes positively flowing your (and his!) way. Good to see that others at his work place are being helpful. It does sound similar to OH's position and there too there seems to be light at the end of the tunnel.
