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

Actually, the goat can look after the little horse

I will stand no nonsense, start talking of passions and I will have to give you a good dose of bottle number 23, that will keep you out of trouble and in the shitter no doubt

Bbbee · 10/07/2008 22:22

oh es - i am drunk and on valium.

but you all like me deep down because i saved you all once and you know i am good deep down.

you do not have hayfever. it is because of a european gentleman and a rose bush and twlight.

Bbbee · 10/07/2008 22:23

yes - you see i think i am the tough one but it is really carrot.

Boco · 10/07/2008 22:23

Didn't you save everyone once when we were all prostitutes and the brothel burnt down?

ahundredtimes · 10/07/2008 22:24

Excellent. I think so too. Sometimes your worsted shirt reminds me of his moustache, and then I weep.

We are very high maintenance aren't we? That's good I think.

I have just scanned Active Convos. There are some very odd things on MN sometimes aren't there?

Boco · 10/07/2008 22:24

I don't make eyecontact with any of you, you're all deranged - apart from 100, but she's so distant and I only really talk to the animals. Apart from that fucking goat.

Bbbee · 10/07/2008 22:24

oh yes i did. I am a bit full of myself aren't I. I like that one - you rode a bicycle and laughed with tears rolling down your cheeks.

come on boco - give this one a backbone we are all on different hymn sheets

Guadalupe · 10/07/2008 22:25

I am going to bed, but I will keep one eye open and the key in a pocket on my heaving bosom where you will not dare tread.

No Talking.

ahundredtimes · 10/07/2008 22:25

I liked it when we were in the brothel, and I REALLY liked it when we were in West Side Story that time.

Bbbee · 10/07/2008 22:26

i don;t think a birthing woman stands much of a chance actually.

we need a toot to come and be all efficient and quietly organise us.

Bbbee · 10/07/2008 22:27

I wasn;t in the west side story one - did it lack deranged perversion?

Boco · 10/07/2008 22:28

I wasn't either - did it lack bicycle riding farming stock?

Guadalupe · 10/07/2008 22:28

oh yes west side story, we did a highly stylised dance didn't we? That was fun.

Boco · 10/07/2008 22:28

I liked it when you called me a stupid pervert once Bee, that makes me smile sometimes.

Bbbee · 10/07/2008 22:28

can we have someone called sasha who delivers supplies on a motorbike and is in love with boco and we all giggle when he comes?

Bbbee · 10/07/2008 22:29

(do you know that carrot once killed a man - she thinks we don;t know but we do.)

Guadalupe · 10/07/2008 22:29

ha at stupid pervert

Guadalupe · 10/07/2008 22:30

actually I have emerged from the sleeping bosom of the matron and I am nice now. Or maybe I am just a hallucination as she is on valiun.

Guadalupe · 10/07/2008 22:31

ahundredtimes · 10/07/2008 22:31

Yes, we can have him. And she take his parcels and answer his stammering questions about sheep. She has no idea.

There was a milk bar in the West Side story one, or a soda bar or something. And pop socks and quiffs. And Guad made me laugh a lot.

Happy sigh.

Now what happens? There's no baby coming right now is there? What will we do when it is on it's way. We'll have to do a tone poem or something.

Guadalupe · 10/07/2008 22:31

or double vision

Boco · 10/07/2008 22:32

Oh everyone knows about Carrot killing that man - it was her cousin and he was blind drunk and he took advantage of her own grandmother on the steps of the local pub. She broke his back. Her granny still mourns his passing.

Bbbee · 10/07/2008 22:33

have to go and put dd to bed again.

do something about radishes, deep pits and hankerchiefs.

Bbbee · 10/07/2008 22:33
