How many? For future ref

I don't ride at the moment, but she is rideable and quite a nice sort, I always intended to dressage her
I have vaguely thought about sending her away for re-schooling

I put it down as 450ml, which MFP reckons is just over 1000kcal.

I would rather use something that isn't alcohol to chill myself out TBH as I'm not a big fan.

Millie2013 · 15/02/2015 10:35

I think alcoholics are thin because they don't eat much and in severe cases there are lots of physiological changes too?

Ennn · 15/02/2015 10:39

Yeah, i think the half a packet of garlic sausage and jug of cream pepper sauce and oatcakes I ate last night and the baked beans on buttered toast I had for breakfast put paid to any plans I may have had about becoming a pale thin waif drifting about the place effortlessly portraying 90s heroin chic

What's everyone planning for the rest of the day?

Ennn · 15/02/2015 10:47

sending her away for re-schooling

Sounds sinister in a vaguely soviet way

I can't decide what to do and by the time I've decided what to do, it will be bedtime!!

Millie2013 · 15/02/2015 11:12

Thank you for asking :) She's got a snotty cold, but she's full of it!

a new cat sounds very exciting :)

Ennn · 15/02/2015 11:48

Tell us about the cat? What colour is it?

Ivytheterrible · 15/02/2015 13:57

Have achieved gym this morning. Off to look at cars later. There are very few that can fit 3 kids in the back seat unless you buy a people carrierso it won't take long!

Ennn · 15/02/2015 14:00

Pickup? Sling em in the back, bobs your uncle.

UpOnDown · 15/02/2015 14:58

Well done on the gym, ivy What's the cat like? How is everyone doing?

I've always had cars that have room for three in the back. Do lots of cars not have that now? They have all been quite small though (less than a 1.2 engine) so that might not be ok for you.

Ennn · 15/02/2015 15:29

I really want to do CBT and get a 125cc bike but DP is vetoing it Sad

Ennn · 15/02/2015 15:39

Well, I say veto, but its not exactly "you, little woman, you shall not have a bike", more that when I mention it he immediately wet-blankets it, telling me it's too dangerous and I can get a car instead

Ivytheterrible · 15/02/2015 16:41

Which ones caulk? Most of them have 2 full size seats and then the middle one is smaller. We will have 3 under 5s so it's the space for the car seats we need. We need to sort a loan out first...

PollyPooic · 15/02/2015 17:05

Weird I was just pining for the 125 of my youth (dt) on which I broke my ankle, never took it on a road though. You are not likely to regret having a bike! Pining for it because #3 bombing about on the quad bike reminded me.

Had lovely hack on the rodeo pony, am such a wuss I was actually nauseous with fear but it got better as we went along. Now is time for PT to do some nice stretching etc

CaulkheadUpNorth · 15/02/2015 17:08

Ah ok. I had a middle full car seat and then moved into booster seats. It was when I nannied though.

UpOnDown · 15/02/2015 18:07

I'm having pizza.

OP posts:
CaulkheadUpNorth · 15/02/2015 18:12

Hooray for pizza. I'm weighing up whether to Stay At Home and make Pom Poms or go to church. Sadly no pizza but I still have a few hot cross buns.
