    Tea, you're not allowed to give up on New Years resolutions in the first week without paying a massive fine. Preferably in chocolate.
    All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.

    Pedant alert - it's could have, not could of.

    If I send a wagon load of Jaffa cakes to the fort can I wallow in resolution-breaking misery

    Nope.
    Wallowing not allowed until at least February.
    (Says she who has ducked the issue by not making resolutions in the first place.)

    Did anyone see that thing about the fat camp for teens on BBC 3 ? It was an interesting concept. They make them follow a calorie controlled diet but it included things like pizza and chips - they even took them to McDonalds and let them choose what to eat in their calorie limit and they made them exercise but what struck me was the emphasis they put on building their self-esteem - they had counselling and positive body image workshops. It was pretty interesting viewing.

    Tea, it might be stating the obvious... He can't reply to something he hasn't yet read, so don't give up hope yet!
    He may be driving somewhere, left his phone somewhere, be stuck on the toilet etc etc.
    And even if it doesn't turn out as you hoped, as others have said, at least you will know where you stand. And that is down to you being proactive and finding out where you stand. All good practice!

    Georgie - your poor mum. Pain is really wearing and the weather isn't helpful for joint pains. Far too much damp. I'd rather have snow than this constant wind and rain.
    .

    Same here code, sick of the constant rain. Her pain tolerance is usually so good, but she was really suffering today :( She hurt her foot a while back, so maybe is over compensation and that's why they hurt? Or she thinks maybe it could be arthritis? Me being me starts worrying :(

    No idea whether it's an ok thing to say or not, and what is covered under the equality act etc, but tbh they're not coming across very well as a company are they?

    Tea, if he doesn't reply, at least you know where you stand and that's got to be better than all the uncertainty?

    Gitdog is so cute! :D

    Watching CBB. They all seem highly irritating so far as per usual!

    He's now read it.

    Oh but here's something fun, I am getting pof messages from someone else. Box of Jaffa cakes to the first person to guess who....that's right, FOH.

    If anyone wants me I'll be having a breakdown in the fort with a pillow over my head.

    :wall::wall::wall: block.

    Georgie - can you get your mum some glucosamine? I think it's meant to help with joint pain. Following Pyxis' recommendation I got some for DA.

    :eek: He's unbelievable! Want his interview with the police today?
  • I'll mention them to her code. She's got to be careful what she takes as she's on quite abit of medication already. She definitely needs something though. She's went from rushing round everywhere to hobbling and having to sit down in pain. :( She's got the doctors this Friday about something else, so she said she'll mention it then.
