Mumsnet Talk

Here we are again - new thread time! Can you believe we're on our 9th one?

I've been down to DFS and got us some new squidgy sofas. Feel free to add anything else you like

Marking my place.

Marking place!

Off to, quite literally, The Most Important Meeting Of My Life. Wish me well. I have red lippie and my creepy leather doctor's bag, so I'm good to go.

Ooooh, good luck Jodie <ponders contents of creepy bag> If it has scary 1700's doctors things in it, I hope they give you whatever answers you're wanting!

<marks place for list later>
Quick good luck shout for Jodie

Marking place and wondering like hell what Jodie is up to

Thanks everyone - went really well

Permission to go over my calorie allowance by about 250 cals? <pleading>

Arf @ contents of creepy bag!

It was actually 20 Silk Cut, some busted headphones, a Kindle, a battered map of Clerkenwell, a packet of plasters, and about 356 hair slides, the latter no longer necessary having just had about 8 inches lopped off

Last call for the Doom List - c'mon everyone!

I think we'll let you have a little celebratory whatever it is you have in mind Jodie

Squeeeee! 8 inches!!! Brave or foolish? Brave or foolish?

Pix It was both I think . It's a tousled chin-length bob and an awfully good cut BUT the fringe is VERY short! I TOLD her I wasn't cool enough for a trendy haircut! Still, in 2 weeks it'll be over my eyes again so it's all OK....

Bee I had Heinz cream of tomato soup, TWO slices of bread and some cheese!

Ooh, while you're here - are you going/ have you been to Richard III because I am HYPERVENTILATING about it!

OH Pix sorry I totally forgot to reply....not been, REALLY want to! On your recommendation I might take myself there for a solo visit! Is it wrong that I find the bit where he's 'seducing' Anne a real turn on

Who's playing Ring Kitchard the Thrid?

Sounds luffly. New profile pic required! I desperately need to do something with my shagged-in-a-hedge style but I'm too chicken.

The filthbeast himself!!!! Mark Rylance <fans self and goes for a lie down>

RYLANCE AS .... AS....NO?!?!?!?!

AAAAAAAAAARGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

ARE THERE CHEAP TICKETS LEFT????

When does the season end? What ... how.... <BANG>

I officially love you. You are the only other person in the world who would react like that. See, I TOLD YOU. I bloody TOLD you that you needed to go!! I messaging you on t'other place right now so as not to take over the DoD.

Hey, it's fine - you keep nattering. I need a minute before the list goes up 'cos I'm just watching the end of a film

Here's the list for the week chaps!

Clodaghdragonfly has lost 2lb this week, Total loss so far 11.5lb

Pixiestix has lost 2lb this week, Start weight 13st 9lb, Current weight 10st 7.5lb, Total loss so far 3st 1.5lb

Jodie has lost 1.5lb this week, Total loss so far 1.5lb

Grinningbee has stayed the same this week, Start weight 15st 11.5lb, Current weight 13st 10lb, Total loss so far 2st 1.5lb

SlimJimBra has gained 0.5lb this week, but she is allowed as she is at the bottom end of being at Target Weight

Congratulations to our joint Slimmers of The Week Clodaghdragonfly and Pixiestix, and also much fluffy pom pom waving and a big sparkly sticker to Pixie for getting her 3st sticker!

Well done everybody

Sorry for being a few minutes late - I was watching the end of a funny film. I do love Simon Pegg and Nick Frost (was watching Paul). Shaun of the Dead is one of my favourites.

Not having my other Heb tonight now, in the hope it will balance out the half a fairy cake from earlier.

Going over to FB now to have a small H related grumble...

Pix

I'm trying to make a fat-related joke about "Now is the winter of our discontent made glorious summer by this Yorkie Bar." But I have my pride, so I won't. Oh, hang on...

Bee thanks for doing the list!

My loss is modest but it's a step downwards. Let's see what effect (clue: disastrous) the next few days have <sigh>

Woo hoo! Fab list everyone
Well done clodagh and pixie for shared SotW 1/2 bag of dodgy fruit each! And <pom poms> for pixie's sparkly sticker

Jodie 1.5lb might be modest, but if we did it every week for a year, that'd be over 5.5 stone off. Now there's a Yorkie for thought

Now anyway, who is this Mark person you speak of - is he nice?
