Apparently mote park isnt that big? Ive never seen it, nor do i know what it is! ha. Im going in that direction on sunday for some shopping and a primark trip! Car parking is so cheap in that multi storey on a sunday. Cant adam and eve it! Wouldnt get that price here in a month of sundays.

Sounds like a fab way to celebrate the end of your exams. I've asked for the Saturday 'cos I'd like to see Madonna.

Hi everyone

Been roaming around trying to read all the posts on this thread (not likely), so I thought Id introduce myself as a start. I moved to England from South Africa last june (as some might know) with my then one year old son. At the time I weighed 89kgs (I think its 196lbs). Ive always struggled with my weight and did well on sure slim-until DS was born. Ive been eating differently here because Ive worked out how to use a budget and also the produce is different. And finally I have an OH so I feel more like a responsible home maker than a single mum who hasnt a clue. (I digress)Add to that the fact that after driving everywhere for my whole adult life I now find myself without a car and actually enjoying the walking. So the other day I got on a scale for the first time since I had my new patient visit just off the plane, to discover Ive lost 10lbs (which I think is about 3kgs).Without really trying I have to say Im chuffed so Ive ordered a scale in the argos sale and now want to do more. I definately could use the encouragement. I thought about reverting to my old SS programme but with that comes the dilemma of how to deal with OH and DS, meals. They both seem happy to eat chicken and since white meat was my main Ive been doing lots of that in the steamer and slow cooker (which I never owned in S.A

Mote Park is quite large, take your hiking boots.

The Chequers multi storey used to be free on a Sunday, now it is 60p for the first 3 hours on a Sunday (if I remember correctly).

Sounds like youre doing quite well already though!
