I love rocket and roll, put another lime in the fruitbowl, baby - 10 / 10 thread

[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

oh, not saying ur jokes are not funny

just I haven't heard back, laughter or otherwise so I thought we should keep trying

Tell her Avi and I nearly had a conversation about benign neglect and Thomas the Tank Engine. That'll perk her up no end.

Yes, go up with a ladder to do gutters. And being up there means you can inspect more closely and hope that the problem is easily (and inexpesnively) solved.

I like the auditor one but I wasn't entirely sure I got it [thick]

I didn't get it.

I don't think I know what an auditor is.

Does it refer to financial auditing?

DH is an auditor but not finanical. He audits farms.

I am hopeless at jokes. I file them in that part of my mind that has big holes like swiss cheese and when I go back to look for them, they are gone.

Sorry Boco

The chair sounds horrendous. My sister had a similar chair / no food experience in a Spanish hospital.

DS was introduced to Thomas by his cousin at a very early age and thus we have rather a lot of Thomas gear. Mostly wooden, and they do interchange with the Brio. I don;t mind the actual trains eitehr, but we do have books and I hate them. Luckily lately I am allowed to choose the bedtime story books so we haven;t had to read any for a while. And I am very adept at changing lots of the words and even skipping great chunks out as necessary.

Am hoping DS will have lost interest by the time he can actually read.

I was a financial auditor. The joke is slightly funny as there auditors often just do whatever was done in the audit the year before without thinking about whether it is the best approach to take.

I will tell my sister's first ever joke instead.

How did the lady get out of the well?

She had a ladder in her tights.

She told it when she was about 6

My favourite joke is

What did the 0 say to the 8?

Like your belt.

I love these jokes. I can never remember anything more intellectual

The Man tells me complicated ones that I can never remember.

oh, thank you, I didn't get the auditor one either

My favourite one as a child used to be,

where do you find a hedgehog with no legs

where you left it

Boom boom

so
we need to go up a ladder

oooOOOOooooooh

night all
night Boco

goodnight, Franny

I am going to bed too, I am bloody knackered, in fact I have walked miles pushing the pram today so thats probably why. It os four weeks tomorrow now. I reckon that's ok.

Night Franny (You must not go up a ladder, DP must)

Night MrsC (4 weeks seems like a long time)

Night Jimbob

What did the slug say to the snail?

Big Issue sir?

(From dp's repertoire as I have no memory for jokes)

lol Toot

UR your jokes are excellent
and winky wonky donkey
have waited until everyone has legged it to say two bananas
it's all going fruitastically wrong

Oh Stuffit, I'm still here. Don't think you're 'two bananas' has gone unnoticed.

I think we need a boot camp next week. My Dad will be here so I'll have to have real food in. That will be v good for my 10/10. In the meantime, it's going to be quite bad.

Night all < wave in the direction of Poland to Boco>

UR have emailed you.

Very much enjoying the slug/snail joke.

(cheeringly) stuffit, two bananas is (are?) better than no bananas

Stuffit, how are you? How was the trip?

Hello Bero!

Hummus, sundried tomatoes, raspberries, melon, aubergine, courgette, onion, red pepper, 2 strawberries, 6 grapes, 2 slices of apple.

Look at that, Toot swishing in with her impressive list

Night all

(will check mail, Bero)
