Hello all
I am resurrecting an old tradition of boosting general health by committing to doing at least 10 mins of exercise and aiming for 10 portions of Fruit and veg a day.
The old threads always had genius titles - a particular favourite being aaah Leek out, le leek, c'est chic"

Heres hoping

hello avi!
not listing today as mostly composed of chocolate truffles (amazing, home made present)
I think if you don't have salad or soup for the meal that isn't dinner, it's quite hard isn't it?

bocoid · 05/10/2011 19:53

Very excited about your news Franny.

I had soup for lunch and salad for dinner so am top vegger today. Carrot, leek and tarrogan soup, very nice.

So, ..
raisins and nuts
soup - 2 portions?
orange juice
apple
grapes
lettuce
tomatoes
cucumber
pepper

I don't know - nearly ten anyway.

No exercise as an office day but did some twirling on the office chair.

Where's Guadalupe? She still mns doesn't she?

FrannyandZooey · 05/10/2011 20:48

ha! twirling on the office chair
stop being funny, I will get sucked in

bocoid · 05/10/2011 21:22

I really do twirl, and when the finance manager isn't there I see if i can get around the whole office on my chair, it's good as there's a long gangway where you really pick up speed.

I would love to hear from Guad, I 'speak' to most other people from time to time but she has vanished a bit (wise lady)
Avi 2 days after Shock
he is really pleased!

FrannyandZooey · 05/10/2011 22:12

Boco that reminds me of when you and 100 were in charge when cod was away
is your real life just like old MN threads?

bocoid · 05/10/2011 23:16

Ha! Yes, and we just flicked paper clips around and you had to take your shoes off so we couldn't hear you coming on the parquet flooring!

Well, it's very similar, but i also have to do some work and stuff. This week that's included making foam muppet puppets though, so some of it is good.

I had a sleep over at guads a couple of weeks ago which was very lovely - we watched films and ate sweets - i'm sure she said she still posts here. We will have to find her.

FrannyandZooey · 06/10/2011 08:06

aw that is nice, hope she is ok
I don't do any real work either, I just cuddle babies and gather bark and stuff
