Dancing greens, feel the beet of the tangerine - 10 / 10 thread

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

Toot after I pressed send I did suddenly think this may have been the wrong place and you'd think that I encouraged knife fights, even with my disclaimer, and that you might be shaking heads slowly. No, it was a very wholesome toy knife used usually to slice wooden cake and wooden vegetables. And occasionally limbs. But that isn't encouraged.

Actually, I do let dd1 use proper knives for chopping fruit and vegetables - as her safety knife is rubbish and just pulps everything, and she's amazingly careful and considered. But not for playing with. Witter witter.

I'm reading your sex thread franny, but feeling a bit blushy reading it.
