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

If you're asking about the glowsticks, it prevents the glow from fading so they can be played with in a few days/ weeks.

If you're asking about what is under your cardigan then I don't know.

maybe it will make your nipples go hard?

OverRated · 07/01/2008 00:44

BBBee · 07/01/2008 00:53

SantaBabyBeenAnAwfulGoodGirl · 07/01/2008 01:10

glosticks we used those once to do some kind of performance a t abbq on a flotilla holiday made them fly up to the past as the climax of the performance was rather good..and my idea

think it was a ghost story

SantaBabyBeenAnAwfulGoodGirl · 07/01/2008 01:11

like i have been sufficiently blame to be still having to be working

this may end up in me having to scive in the morning

SantaBabyBeenAnAwfulGoodGirl · 07/01/2008 01:17

BBBee · 07/01/2008 01:19

Are you cohereant enough to write?

I am working which is why I am on here

SantaBabyBeenAnAwfulGoodGirl · 07/01/2008 01:23

SantaBabyBeenAnAwfulGoodGirl · 07/01/2008 01:24

SantaBabyBeenAnAwfulGoodGirl · 07/01/2008 01:29

SantaBabyBeenAnAwfulGoodGirl · 07/01/2008 01:29

OverRated · 07/01/2008 01:32

Oh dear, you two.

Haven't seen the film but I don't watch anything remotely scary.

SantaBabyBeenAnAwfulGoodGirl · 07/01/2008 01:35

it's a marvel comic film..so not scary as such but having this surround sound makes the flor thump all the time

i don't often get scared at night these days but i am tonight for some reason

OverRated · 07/01/2008 01:37

Surround sound does that. I suppose this is where living in the tiniest flat in the world pays off!

BBBee · 07/01/2008 01:44

don't think about it

pause film

run round house switching on all lights whooping

turn off surround sound!

SantaBabyBeenAnAwfulGoodGirl · 07/01/2008 07:38

i haven't thought of a forfeit for the climber tho as he lost our scrabulous decider..forfeits was his idea when he assumed he would win i think..any suggestions

and bbee did u get it done

FrannyandZooey · 07/01/2008 09:26

god I am full of snot. where does it all come from? one of life's mysteries/

the boys are coming back today, yay. I must admit it was very peaceful indeed being here on my own, plus it is SO EASY to keep a house clean and tidy when there is just you in it, I have no idea why I ever found it difficult in the past

I must have missed dp though as I had rampant dreams about him all night - very unusual, it is normally Noel Edmonds or someone equally horrific

spoke to ds this morning who says he has been given a game where green slime comes out of a man's head. That'll be nice, then. Green slime coming out of heads is always my first thought when buying for delightful 4 year olds

FrannyandZooey · 07/01/2008 09:59

zippi I think that mango you had must have been under ripe

because I have just had one the same and they are a bit perfumey I agree

they should be really aoft with almost orangey flesh but it is impossible to get them to ripen atm

can you tell your bad mango experience has been bugging me?

OP posts:
filthymindedvixen · 07/01/2008 10:30

lol at obsessing over zippi's mangos.

And now I have that ''Love me love me'' lovefool song going round thanks to swedish cardigan talks.

Hey ho, til way more interesting than RL on here...

It's the last day of the holidays and it has rained and galed here solidly for 7 days.

FrannyandZooey · 07/01/2008 10:43

LOL someone talking about us on another thread:

"What is that fruit and veg thread every week? What do they talk about (I ventured on it once and didn't understand at all)"

OP posts:
filthymindedvixen · 07/01/2008 10:46

FrannyandZooey · 07/01/2008 10:50
