Hurray!!!! Managed to get on at last!:j
I can't get on from home, well, I can read the posts but that's all, and it's only this site I've got problems with.....

Right, Morning everyone:hello: MrsM, Frogga, RS, Alibow, Meanmarie and anyone else and of course the newbies!!
Did okish yesterday, made caulicheese, cauldron sausage and a jacket for tea and had a glass of wine.
I decided that I'd better have some supper as I had to go for a fasting blood test this morning so would be without food :eek: (or a cup of tea) until about 9.30 :eek:
so I had a piece of OH's fruit cake - very nice but very filling, I didn't really want it all but ate it anyway :mad:

Popped home after the docs and had tea and toast with marmalade. Free buffet lunch at work today - thought it was too good to be true last week, today was cheese, cheese or egg so I have had 3 little sandwiches, a small handful of crisps and a small fruit tart.:D
I've got a cereal bar to have on the way home as I'm stopping off to do a bit of Christmas shopping and I'm not sure what I'm having for tea yet.......

Right, I'm off to make a cuppa, see you later ladies if I can get on otherwise I'll see you tomorrow:A

It's everyone here's fault I've just spent too much in Sainsburys!!

Mrsm - there was buy one get one free on clemantines and haven't had them in ages.

Then there was the options hot chocolates. Was just going to buy a pot of belgium. Then saw lots of little sachets... so bought a tub of belgium choc, and 2 of each of the other sachets (so me and OH can try them all and compare notes) - mint, orange, toffee, banana and hazelnut. Just drinking a mint one right now :rolleyes:

It's nice though

Good job you're posting that idea AFTER my trip to sainsbugs - else I'd have spent EVEN MORE!!!

Poster has now been dropped off via sister car rather than walking. It was just too nasty out there. Really windy and throwing it down with rain. And as I currently have no waterproof shoes (besides wellies, which I hate walking far in) a lift seemed like a very good idea. Only problem is I've now had no exercise today. Think I might put the hoover round and then have a game of tennis on the wii before I settle down to do some work. Currently waiting for the rain to subside a bit so I can empty the ashes and get some coal in so I can light the fire.

MrsM - I usually just fix my jewellery on thin card with my business name and website address on it but if you're not going to use those bits I'll be more than happy to have them, thanks

Frogga - Thats an amazing reduction! What was it? (if you don't mind me asking)

Newlywed - The belgium chocolate and the toffee ones are my favourites. I just wish the tubs weren't so expensive compared to all the other brands.

Postie still hasn't been so I figure we had no post today and I missed him walking past. Bet my parcels come tomorrow when noones home (I'm off to suffolk for the day) and it'll be the idiot postman who doesn'y put the item numbers on the 'you weren't home' slips so I can't ask for redelivery :mad:

Right, I see a patch of blue sky coming so I'm gonna go get that coal before the heavens open again!

Yeah but it is as nice as aero hot choc (I think) and less calories etc. Plus if it stops me buying chocolate when I really want some - then it will be a bonus.

Though I do have to confess that every ski trip I have become addicted to hot choc and usual put weight on after the ski holiday from drinking it constantly. If it's a bit more expensive then I am less likely to drink a whole pot full in one day :rotfl: maybe
