Tutti frutti - all booty - 10/ 10 club BOOT CAMP - all sign in and line up for parade

[FrannyandZooey]

For anyone who wants a boost to their general health. The suggested goals are:

EAT 10 PORTIONS OF FRUIT AND VEGETABLES EVERY DAY - if you don't usually eat much fruit and veg I would build up gradually or you could upset your digestion.

DO (AT LEAST) 10 MINUTES OF EXERCISE EVERY DAY - can be yoga, stretching or something more energetic. The plan is that the idea of doing 10 minutes is not too daunting, and having started you may well find you want to do more.

There are no restrictions on what you eat so long as you get your 10 fruit and veg as well. The focus is not on weight loss but on improving our energy levels and hopefully our general mood and well-being. Sign up below and post here to tell us how you're getting on and how you are feeling.

Basic guidance on what constitutes a portion of fruit and veg here and you can download more detailed information by following the link at the very bottom of the page

Where are you all?

TooT you are at it AGAIN

you big filther

right now right now

who has eaten 10 things and who has not? What are you all planning for tomorrow?

I forgot to say but I had peppers and cucumber and hummus and beansprouts and tomatoes for dinner.

Oh Bee that is a good story. Do you ask your lecturer lots of questions? Please say you do.

Bee I like the thing about the Bee

I babysat today. I was in charge of 6 children (including mine) and there was a trampoline. They played together beautifully. But now I am tired.

I haven't had enough portions. Probably 4.

I like the Bee as well .

Could I please place a small dilemma before you?
My mother gave us the money for a new cooker almost a year ago, and the bank promptly ate it. Since then, we have not been able to scrape together enough to actually buy it. Now, of course, my friend is buying us one and has rather delightfully said that it's fine with her if we just let my mum think that this is the one that she paid for. However, I don't think I can do this because I would feel dishonest. But equally, I don't just want to say that my friend has bought us one when it was no small gesture for my mother to give us the money, and she really wanted us to have it. Ideally before last Christmas. I don't want her to feel sort of ousted. Am I making sense? What should I say?
Many thanks in advance.

Must admit, if it were me I would be dishonest and say 'I've got the cooker at last! I'm so pleased with it! Thank you so much.'

But that's just me, I'm without scruples.

Don't see why not, then everyone's happy.

I ask loads of questions and apparently I look 'quizzical' with my eyebrows and they stop and ask me why my face is doing a question. Maybe I should wear a burka.

Even if I felt okay about it (and I can see why it is a good solution) I'm not sure I could do it convincingly.

I shall take a picture of the bee and show you. T - I still have the jeans all parcelled up for you on my flloor surrounded by loads of excuses about postal strikes etc. I adore you - they will be there soon.

100 - I got DS docotr who dvd and lego for birthfay - was fab. You seem to always be doing birthdays at the moment!

oh toot you are too honest - say 'I have a new cooker it is so nice - thanks for helping us out'

god you are SO much nicer than me!

No problem Bee you are very kind.
(I saved myself from complete ignominy with an extremely fortuitous trip to a charity shop, otherwise I would now be walking around in more hole than trouser. I dunno, you scour the charity shops fruitlessly for weeks and months and then 3 pairs of trousers turn up at once!)

Anyone else noticed how filthy minded Toots is these days? Always going on about clefts and bushes and nipples. Dirty.

Toots i think i'd tell a white lie and just thank your mum for the cooker - she might as well have bought it really, and then she can feel pleased. It's not a proper lie.

Bee the bee thing is sad and nice.

Do you think i am long and crazy like my hair? Hmm. Maybe.

Lovely autumn pictures Tatties.

It is projection. Boco is projecting her filth onto my innocent canvas.

I think actually I am too honest. This is relating to the cooker issue and not Boco's smuttery. It has got me into quandaries before.

boco - you are not long.

you are crazy.

I have to go to bed before I fall off the chair.

Don't be honest. Lie though your teeth, so she can sleep at night knowing she's bought you a cooker and you are pleased with it.

Of course, she might say 'how come it took a year?' and then you'll have to be very casual and say 'Oh the delivery time was awful. But not to worry, it's here now.'

BB - so pleased re both eyebrows and actual questions. Extremely pleased actually. Disturbingly pleased.

Toots it's time to face your own filth - just look at that last title! Be proud of your smutty self.

Bee you think i'm crazy, but you love me i'm sure of it. And i love you and your eyebrows.

I should go to bed.
