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

Hello Boco...have been thinking about you!

TooTicky · 20/05/2009 13:27

Hello Boco and Mits

Was just thinking it was a bit quiet in here.

TooTicky · 20/05/2009 13:41

If I was doing the washing up or picking up bits of hay from the carpet or braving scary child bedrooms there would be lots of you here chatting. Bloody typical.

TheMitsubishiWarrioress · 20/05/2009 13:50

Come and whisk me away and feed me cake and lattes, you lady of leisure you....

TheMitsubishiWarrioress · 20/05/2009 15:37

Lol at 100.....as close as possible to where a mummy thrush was squawking her feathers off...

100, did you feel strangely proud when you had your book published.I have my pictures and I could sort of cry in an oiddly proud sort of way....

SB - not Beamish - though we adore beamish.
No this was the Hancock musuem - a proper Natural History Museum with rooms of stuffed animals (including a real Dead, dodo!) - which we spent half our childhoods in.
It has been revamped and refurbed and my brother was desperate to visit so is borrowing my boys.
Is it very sad of me to wish I could go too?

lemur well i didn't expect page 103
or was it 203
i have forgotten it all
i will have to read it again

my favourite is laura because her voice was so 100-esque
i am not saying you are like laura 100! but the things she said and did were recounted in a very you-ish way

my favourite moment - hmmm
i really will have to reread
i love it when they tell the philandering FIL to piss off
