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

i love celery,but not when its bitter & stringy

BBBee · 21/04/2008 21:48

i think you will find the lychees have a back taste of cheese.

also very dark chocolate has a back taste of marmite. I think it is the B vitamins.

Sod - I should be doing assingments - buggery tittery bollocks.

lullabyloo · 21/04/2008 21:49

no no...i hate cheese

DD1 wrote her favourite joke on a book mark as a gift for dp. But her spelling isn't great. She wrote.

Wat do you call a donky with three legs?

A wankey.

Had us laughing for ages, she thought her joke was a roaring success and was rather proud.

zippitippitoes · 21/04/2008 21:49

when i was nine i askled for a psychedlic petticaot and lychees in my l;etter to father christams whom i still belived in

BBBee · 21/04/2008 21:50

oh no 100, we diverge here. I had agreed until now.

the leek is the buttery delicate frail younger sister of the big burly onion.

zippitippitoes · 21/04/2008 21:52

well of course in the olden days of zippis childhood celery ws presented in a glass jug of water and you poured salt onto you r palte and dipped the end in the salt and ate it

sort of junior school tequila experience

i loved it

stuffitllama · 21/04/2008 22:32

is anyone about?

stuffitllama · 21/04/2008 22:38

am trying to set up a photo gallery and failing
i've set it up but it doesn't show as "stuffitllama's pictures"

zippi? anyone?
i can put them on the front page but don't want to as that's too public

stuffitllama · 21/04/2008 22:38

leeks are lovely and celery is pretty awful btw

Boco · 21/04/2008 22:49

Have to clicked the box to make it public?

Boco · 21/04/2008 22:50

That made no sense.

I mean , there's a box you have to click on the page where you've uploaded your pictures, you have to say that you want to make them public.

stuffitllama · 21/04/2008 22:52

i think so I'll check again

stuffitllama · 21/04/2008 22:54

thanks boco
i've uploaded a picture and some details into my gallery
but not a photo on the profile page as everyone would see it
so I want to make my gallery public to the tenners and no one else
but I can't see where it tells me to do that

stuffitllama · 21/04/2008 22:56

so my profile is public and the gallery should be a private view as it were
but it doesn't offer that
i've put "visible to my mumsnet mates" (hopefully not being too presumptuous there) but it ain't

Boco · 21/04/2008 22:58

Yes you put visible to mumsnet mates, and there should be somewhere where you put in who your mates are - but don't know where. Toots did it that way i think - she'll know. But i'm going to bed now and am impatient to see!

stuffitllama · 21/04/2008 22:59

ok it'll be public for about 5 mins! hold on

stuffitllama · 21/04/2008 23:02

ok thunderbirds are go

lullabyloo · 21/04/2008 23:04

wow stuffit
you are beeeeeeautiful

stuffitllama · 21/04/2008 23:04

did you see boco i'm twitchy
when I get the gallery working I'll set something up properly and sensibly
with sensible pictures and sensible information

stuffitllama · 21/04/2008 23:05

thank you but no lully that was a party that is a fake person that comes out about twice a year

Boco · 21/04/2008 23:06

You're a bit gorgeous aren't you - but what are you doing to that lady in front of you?

I want to demand even more questions now. I will give you a break though and ask you another time as you've done GOOD sharing for today, well done!

stuffitllama · 21/04/2008 23:06

ok can I take it down?

stuffitllama · 21/04/2008 23:07

thanks guys am taking it off!

Boco · 21/04/2008 23:08

...and relax.

See, sharing is fine.

I have just about everything but my medical records on my profile! And i'm fine
