Fruity is in the pie of the beholder - 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

can we do a Sunday again? I know it made trains hard for some people, but the difference in hotel room prices is huge
we probably can't afford in Oct otherwise
Sun 26th Oct looking good?

(impatient now you have mentioned it Avi!)

I can't do beginning of Nov (or middle)
I can't do a Saturday and stay over - hotels 3 times as expensive
but if you are all meeting on the Sat I could just come on the Sun, I suppose? [mournful]

sorry for overload avi
hope it is nice things or some nice things anyway

Quiet on here tonight.

That's all I have.

Uh.

Do you take DP's AND kinder folken to meets? (pigeon german for Bero )

Thanks for laughing at the sausage image. DH and Mum did too. Sigh.

Most of us brought DPs and LOs last time (mostly cause we were nervous )

Hope the diet before Sat is successful. Haven't you got anything else to wear. Lots of our furniture is from Ikea. Is that bad?

Wwwwhooo, I found you!!!!!!

Ooh, you are planning things

Oh I see, I come back and you all scarper

[forlorn]

TooT!!!!!!! hello

'Fraid not avi, flights booked

LOL at kinder folken. I would, if I managed it, have my kinder folken with me but no dh.

I have been drinking rosé and talking for the last 2 hours with SIL's wonderful mother.

Bero!!!!!!

How was it? Did you have a nice and non-exasperating time?
I am going to tipsily email you now.

Oh, it was good, very good. Lots of sea and sand and things and not too much rain.
Tipsily is an odd word. I had to read it three times before I realised what it was.
And I am not tipsy, despite having had a small portion of lemon and pear cider.

Hello TooT
Glad you had a good time

Oh I'm glad it was good. Sea and sand are lovely things.

I have had 3 tiny glasses of nice wine. It is so nice to sit and chat into the night - though it is never actually 'chat' with SIL's mother (i.e. BIL's MIL - I don't know whether BIL's wife is technically SIL but it's what I refer to her as) - we always end up talking about Very Profound and Personal Subjects. She is the most amazing woman - sort of an adopted aunt really.

Ooh hello Idris
How is the dragon family?
