Haha. Im looking for stuff to do on the 10/11th of may.

Search came back with a hotel in brighton that has an 8ft round bed, a mirrored canopay, a pole dancing pole, giant plunge bath and a 42 inch plasma with a ps2.

Sounds right up my boyfriends ally

Seren you could use cardboard for the wings but i reckon theres a better way than that.

have you got a big haberdashery type place anywhere near you? I go to Bombay Stores in Bradford - thats the type of place i mean. You should be able to get some fabric that is kind of plasticky and shiny on one side - they might have red. Or look for a red pvc apron from somewhere, i should imagine the early learning centre would have them. try looking for a 'child's painting apron - there's quite a few on ebay. Then get some cheap !!! fairy wings from somewhere - quite a lot of fancy dress shops have them - and glue the red plasticky stuff over them, making them a bit raggedy on the bottom. Alternatively, if you are feeling really creative, find some sort of flexible wire that you can bend into a shape that will hold and glue the pvc over that. The nyou've just got to figure out a way to strap them on which is why i'd go with butchering the fairy ones. You'll be the best dressed dragon in town. Apart form THE dragon obviously.

Hi all. Not much but I've managed to lose 1LB this week. I'm still quite pleased with that though as IF I keep at that then at least it'll be steady losses.

Good luck to all those battling and great news about all those who've lost!!!!

I hope no one minds me jumping in here.

I used to pop in and out of your old thread............have been plucking up the courage to join this new thread.

I would love to join you all (if you'll have me) you all seem to motivate and support each other wonderfully.

Today is D day!

Aim: 56lbs by 1st October.

PinkLipgloss what a great first day, very jealous you've been out on the bike, has it been nice weather where you are? Or are you a more hardy cyclist than me

missyg,

I'm living in the Japan at the moment (returning to sunny Scotland in July). The weathers been fantastic lately - 21 degrees today so I'm going to head out on my bike again! It's "Golden Week" over here (a week of public hols) so I'm not back at work until Wednesday which gives me lots of time to build up the motivation to exercise! :rotfl:

I'd highly recommend it. I've been living out here for just over 4 years now. However be prepared for a BIG culture shock!

There is a common misconception that it's really expensive - however that's not at all the case. I find living here cheaper than back home! Clothes, shoes, accessorizes, electrical products, food (esp. eating out) - all cheaper! However fruit is more expensive here :mad:

If you ever get the chance to visit I recommend Tokyo, Osaka, Kyoto, Nara and Okinawa! Okinawa is the south island however its like a different country - beautiful beaches and hot sunny weather!
