They're Changing Chard At Butternut Palace, Crispy Rocket Went Down With Radish - 10/10 Club

[TooTicky]

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.

No no, the corn we grew

Oh, you may be interested to hear that ds2 is wearing a grey G*P top and no trousers. He looked at the school shoes and said, "Mum, my shoes are bending my toes." "All of a sudden?" I asked. "Yes," he said.
And ds1 is wearing the NO COMMENT, NO PROOF, NO PROBLEM T-shirt. I think the sentiment appeals to him

Hello!

OMG it was fab!

We are all so fucking beautiful!

How surreal was that!

TooT - didn;t you have a fab time - wasn;t it weird!

I was at the frayedknot FMF lionheart end of the table.

Bee
Your children are positively exotic!

I heart Bbbee. we are related

ha! Did you like the bit where ds banged a chair on the floor shouting "Can we go yet?" That was cool - my parenting rocks (!)

can;t believe how serene and dainty you are with all those children - do you have to tie them to you to stop you blowing away you dainty creature?

oh yes fmf - we are - 100 would have loved it - she could have turned it into an episode of 'who do you think you are?'

we SO are related - explains our affinity.

the cake was divine and I can;t believe fz managed to sort this out in central london.

What was the eveninglike?

am sad I missed it.

me too - wish I could have stayed

okay now.

PSW was like I htought she would be.

Boco was because I met her before.

Everyone else WAS COMPLETELY DIFFERENT FROM HOW I IMAGINED!

Oh MrsC I wanted to talk to you so much more than I did - I talked about you a lot though and we did good smiling and our dds did sharing so we are nearly friends.

I know! (hats off to Franny) When I was wandering round Covent Garden trying to find the place, all the cafes were heaving and I worried and then our place was such an oasis of calm and serenity and quirkiness. Just like this thread...

really? everyone was pretty much how I imagined...

It was weird though wasn't it?

It is weird to meet people you know loads about but haven't met and then to do face to face politeness whilst knowing they are wearing spongebob pants.

Odd.

or am I stoneage?

The evning was jolly (as opposed to bacchanalian). I felt like the resident lush as I was the only one not breast-feeding, pregnant, in charge of children or teetotal There was no dancing on tables, just smelly sock cheese and chips, and lots of gassing

Breakfast was jolly too!

Mrs C everyone was SO different! Don;t you think? OH you awre so clever having us all right like that.

It was definitely weird - very surreal indeed.

oh fmf i was promised table dancing!

next time I will stay and we will do table dancing in our sisterhood way.

it was good surreal though - like one of those things on a list you HAVE to do in life - I am sure meeting someone from the internet is there and often that seem to involve 'hook ups' so we have all avoided that nicely whlist still ticking our boxes.

next time it will not feel so wierd and speed-dating-ish We will be more relaxed. I did find it unnerving for about the first hour..

I have to go and get children adn do stuff but want more meet up chat. Keep talkinbg about it.

(I am even deeper in love with boco)

(fmf - it was only unnerving for the first bit because you were next to me and I did the questions thing - sorry!)

Oh dear, did I sound smug?

Well, I guess Toot was different, and I thought PSW had long red hair, and I thought Lionhart had longer hair, and, well, yes they were different to my image but as I knew they would be I sort of wasn't surprised ny the difference. Does that make sense? Probably not.

Well, everyone loves everyone and we are all marvellous and wondrous and so on so it's all ok.!

I saw some of those people who were queuing for the toilet looking like this at everyone.

I wonder how it looked from the outside.
