Let it SHIIIIIII-IIINE, Let it Shine....waltzing about in rude good health like we are all in an M&S ad

Welcome to the latest in our series of healthy eating threads (26 and counting)!

The emphasis is on health (which is sometimes rude when we get chatting frivolously, as is our tendency), and weight loss where desired. I obviously don't desire it enough, as I am the same weight as when I started, but some of our regulars are mere shadows of their former selves ...

Do come and sign in here if you are with us, or want to join in- all welcome.

We try a variety of approaches, and there is always a lot of support and quite a few laughs along the way. Shiney is the head honcho round these parts, and we do get to be regaled with her embarrassing stories before the rest of MN, so that's always a big draw

Join us if you will!

I had the laser thing too. But my eyes were 2.5 or something, so different kettle of cock to you Shiney. A scary laser lady shouted at me as I was starting to cry when she was about to burn my eyeballs

hellsbelles · 27/10/2009 21:33

shiney - x post. I did type out a long rant in reply but deleted it by mistake.

Anyway - just to put in my oar....it has been really good for me. I was -6 and -6.5 and it worked very well. No need for glasses at all.

The glasses in middle age thing is surely for long sight...which is completely different as you don't need glasses all the time with that - just reading and stuff.

Anway - I had to do it . After years of happy lens wearing - my eyes rebelled against contacts - I just couldn't wear them without getting all red eyed. And I got fed up with DH saying I looked like Olive from 'on the buses' with my horrible thick glasses.

BiteOfCock · 27/10/2009 21:34

Sounds hideous, frankly

Apparently you can smell your eyeballs burning...

Anyway, I need to watch Marley And Me now to recover from by fanjo-bashing day- so I will catch you later if anyone is still around

Cockavita · 27/10/2009 21:35

I loved On The Buses >

hellsbelles · 27/10/2009 21:36

umm. As one who has actually had the op i shall ignore all scare mongering from the likes of BOC!

Smell your eyeballs indeed

FlamingoCock · 27/10/2009 21:36

Hey! Tell me how to find out who my friend is on MN! She says she's posted a few times, but won't tell me who she is yet!

BiteOfCock · 27/10/2009 21:36

hellsbelles · 27/10/2009 21:37

I thought it was BIWI...

hellsbelles · 27/10/2009 21:41

I did look hideous BOF so no need to backpedal.

But surgery was so quick it really was over in the 'non blink' of an eye (though fear of sneezing had me practically paralysed)

ACockInHandIsWorth2InTheBush · 27/10/2009 21:42

at being a 'cock' of mystery....

SazZaVoom · 27/10/2009 21:43

Tis like a masked cock ball in here

Struth, that would be interesting

Shine - she's a RL friend - a very good one - who knows who I am on MN and lurks. She's too nervous to leap in and start posting properly so dips her toe in the water here and there. I'm getting too nosy intrigued to wait!

SazZaVoom · 27/10/2009 21:48

I am actually shuddering at the thought of wandering into a room and unveiling cocks

Does she read this thread Flamingo, can we all write messages to her? We need a nickname to address her by though as FB'sRLFriend doesn't really cut it

hellsbelles · 27/10/2009 21:49

I'll stop taking about eyeballs.

Feeling a tiny bit scared. DH is out for the evening - pubbing. So I took the opportunity to do a bit of Jolen (!) (creme bleach for 'upper lip'!)- no sooner was said Jolen on than there was a knock at the door. I shouted through the door that I was putting the baby to bed (as I wasn't expecting any visitors) but the chap declared himself as my neighbour - so I had to rush upstairs and wash off jolen.

Anyway - nice chap told me he'd spotted some dodgy types casing next door and possibly my house (v.unusual as this is a nice quiet street). And asked me to keep an ear out for next door (as they are away). Now I'm a bit wobbly. I can't double lock as DH has the key. Not sure whether I should set the downstairs alarm before going to bed - but as we don't normally I suspect a tipsy DH might not realise what is going on when he hears the bleeps and wouldn't turn it off - thus setting it off to wake up sleeping DC's. Decisions, decisions...what would you do?(DH isn't answering his mobile - as usual - so I can't warn him about the alarm).

To make matters worse - I just looked in the mirror to discover a bit of the white jolen stuff has lodged in my nose (in my rush to wash it off) so I suspect my lovely neighbour is now convinced I'm a coke addict.

SazZaVoom · 27/10/2009 21:54

Do you know which pub he is in Hells? Is it a local type one? If so i would ring him and ask the barman to get him to ring you and then ask him to come home or say you will set the alarm. Otherwise keep lights on, tv on and close all windows

I'm sure everything will be ok, but if you are still worried, call your local police number (not 999) and report what has happened and see if they can send a car to just drive round to scare anyone away from the area. Shiney will prob say this is bollox though

I have got free (inc p&p) to a good home a Gap Packamak. It folds up into it's pocket. Label says 9/10, but I think it is more like maybe 7/8yrs. Tis dark blue with red squiggles on. If any of you would like it, just say. Probably a larger younger child could wear it when we have snow and they play out - saves getting fleeces wet.

hellsbelles · 27/10/2009 21:58

thanks SazZa - I stupidly didn't ask him where. I'm doing the TV, lights on thing so I'm sure all will be fine. And I will keep trying on the phone.

And there is certainly no sign of them now...as I think aforementioned neighbour gave them a very scary 'paddington bear stare!'...so perhaps they have been scared off.
