    Okay I weighed in yesterday to another loss of 3.5 pounds - this makes 2 stone lost in total so far AND I have hit my next mini goal!

    In other news Dr Dragon and I decided to head into Cambridge for a bit yesterday and spent a nice afternoon just chilling by the river Cam (with alcohol LOL), we now have a meeting with his HR person but NOT his boss on Monday of next week - so hopefully things will move on from there.

    Today is planned to be a nice relaxing day so that Dr Dragon is all nice and calm ready for his interview tomorrow - and whilst he is out and about I will blitz the front room as we have a friend coming to stay and she will need to sleep on the sofa (futon so lets down) at the moment there is no where to SIT on it still less sleep :rotfl:

    So plans for the next two days

    Clear the sofa
    Clear the coffee table
    Text Jo and see what time she plans to arrive
    Find out what she wants to do/eat over the weekend :rotfl:
    Bundle up a book and some socks ready for posting out
    Post them if possible!
    See if the shop has some postcards and if so get them and send them
    Keep checking to see how other people are getting on as well :D
    Do not meddle in the affairs of Dragons, for thou art crunchy and good with catsup :D

    Congrats on the weight loss. I hope you will keep Mr.D calm for tomorrow..perhaps another romantic stroll?

    And good work on house, i am of course anticipating that you have done this..... a turnip can always be lobbed for motivation.

    Blackadder: Am I jumping the gun, Baldrick, or are the words 'I have a cunning plan' marching with ill-deserved confidence in the direction of this conversation?
    Still lurking around with a hope of some salvation:cool:

    He has just been for a walk (and is currently cooking bacon for bacon sarnies - yum!), I walked too much yesterday and am suffering for it :mad:

    Um not yet :o, but you need to keep the turnips for lobbing at Mr Bob! (says she hurridly!), I will be doing something house related after the aforementioned bacon sarnies though!

    Yep sudden ankle pain spasm knocked me sick, then faint (followed by actually fainting!) - so I have been relaxing since then
