My Bloody Clementine - 10 / 10 thread

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

everyone, feeling decidedly delicate this morning.

How are you TooT?

ILikeToMoveItMoveIt · 14/02/2009 07:37

Blimey, a night of pished veggers

Can't think of anything around the park tbh. There is a pub called the Cricketers next to Crown Pools, but the food is only just passable, I don't know if it's child friendly and I doubt they do many vegger dishes.

Pizza Express is about 5 minutes walk from the edge of the park. If you leave the park and walk down the front steps of Crown Pools you will see the bus station in front of you. Cross the road at the lights opp The Futon Shop and the top of Lloyds Av is in front of you (a bingo place is on the top corner of Lloyds Av)

I'm sending you an email which has a voucher attached for Pizza Express. I recvd it on the 04 Feb and it says it is valid for the next 10 days so it should be valid, but as it's Valentines Day today they might not accept it.

Enjoy Christchurch Park, the playground is fab there. Wrap up warm, it's on the brow of a hill and gets chilly up there.

thanks so much lemur
i should have said before but we are meeting friends at pizza express tomorrow i don't know why but i felt embarrassed saying it
(because it sounds like we are right ponces eating out all the time i suppose)
it looks like we may be going two days running though! bit of a shame as i think there is only one thing on the menu i can currently eat

sorry my jealousy affected my typing adversely there

molly do you want to borrow my measuring cups?

OP posts:
mollyroger · 14/02/2009 09:33

yes! I'd have been thrilled with those.[saddo]
DH bought me a tiny box of chocolates which he and the boy have now eaten. A bunch of daffs would have been acceptable. I don't actually like chocolates that much.
This always happens.....

they are cute
i am mostly pretending for comedy purposes -we said we were only doing token presents
i have bought him something vaguely suggestive which i realised afterwards is completely pointless we are never further than 6 inches away from a child, atm

however
dp has been rather nice and funny this week
i asked him to please make my lunch a bit more interesting (as i was getting fed up of no blinking cheese etc)
he made toast and pate and wrote "help" and "boo!" on the pate
I LOLed
