Should old tom-ay-toes be forgot and lemon brought to rind - 10/10 thread

[TooTickyDoves]

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

Alot of the time shyness is actually really rude. It's an excuse I think.

Actually, I don't think that.

I am doing a thread. £5.00 to the person who accurately predicts how soon someone comes on and tells me off because being shy is no laughing matter.

some veggers need marriage advice
we are not saying who but loads of us keep name changing and it is getting a bit worrying / exhausting
could you please do general marriage guidance thread a la HTT book and sort everyone out
we can come to it anonymously and seek wisdom

i'll ask again another time shall i?

I went for a RUN and you have all been here chatting and I missed it

Guad, well done!

Bananitos, eh Franny. Your DS2 is a class above my DS who was weaned on lowly bananas.

I am shy/ rude.

You lot are a bad influence. I'm not even hungry but I made myself fajitas. Only cause I had avocado and sour cream in the house. Dammit I've just realised I could have dispensed with the effort and just dipped the avocado in the sour cream!

Hi 100x. Happy New Year

Guad that list is a few days worth, right?

bunny well done that vegger
plus it is no surprise you are shy but you are lovely and not rude
except about bananitos

Oh, you've gone.

Oh 100, you're still here

I have just had this fringe conversation with DD 4, this evening. She wants to get rid of hers, but not by growing it out, oh no, by cutting it off to about 1cm long.

She also asked me why I don't have one - I can't, not a good look with curly hair! Her's is so cute too, I am living vicariously through her hairstyle (saddo)

sorry all, post was interuppted by the phone, so things have moved on.

No Franny, I don't like the sound of Wombing, in fact, I think I need a new name, but I need some inspiration, where is FMV?

Franny, sorry! I saw red bananas in the store this week but just couldn't bring myself to eat red bananas. Has anyone tried one.

As a fellow curly haired one, Wombling, I'd be doing the same as you.

No, don't change, wombling. I like your name.

I might tackle my avocado now.

aww wombling is such cute name
it is not terribly 'you' though, you are nit at all womblesque

bunny i like being teased
red bananas sound odd though

oh lord although you are cute
help
i mean you are like groomed and glam not hairy or shuffly or

oh lord help me someone

Sorry Fra, I went off to be shy on the thread.

I'm not absolutely sure I'm the person for marriage advice, but I can try? I was going to email about this very issue re AP SIL actually, and problems arising therefrom. I feel like I need to speak in code, she might MN I think. [nervous]

Oh, so I am not cute huh Franny?

No, I agree, I don't think it 'suits' me.

ooh tell us in code 100

wombling well i think it makes you sound sort of scruffy and shambolically cute
but you are strong attractive woman kind of cute instead

No would be wrong, is all a bit raw and I'd be mortified.

oh dear sorry about it then

Oh the strong attractive (not) woman stuff is just a front for meet ups and suchlike, I am really very scruffy, and awfully shambolic, and carry around large bags full of rubbish, other people would throw away!

PMSL had better stick with your current name then
it's a very likeable name, anyway

Have you finished digging now Franny?

I missed what is going on with 100

I am too shy to tell you SB. Sorry.

This is my new emoticon

Blimey, I go to answer the phone and you all chat like mad!!!

Wonderful to see you Wombling

And 100x develops little faces

I should go and take the Christmas tree down. I told dd it might be gone when she wakes up. I am not enriching my life by hanging around here and facebook. Please tell me to go

I might find some crap to watch on tv while I pack my decs away.

I have booked my decorator to paper my dining room (10 months after child crayoned on wall!) and I can't wait. It's gettting me down now.

Right. I'm going to get the boxes down. I'll pop in later but shout at me if my house isn't de-Christmassed!

I don't need to know ahundred, I was just confused.
