Shiney shiney, shiney boots of leather- crack the whip with the healthy eating thread...

[BiteOfFun]

...Come and be a Venus In Fake Furs (with a nod to any vegetarians, who may enjoy the odd Quorn fillet...)on our healthy eating thread, and watch yourself vanish before your very eyes, if that is your aim!

We are supporting each other to lose weight, or just eat well and get fit- but we do like a bit of a laugh along the way, so if you are interested in joining Shiney and the other regulars here and be in the gang, just drop in and post as much as you can- the thread moves fast!

All welcome- the only quiches round here are the contraband in my fridge

Do you think they'd shame you in front of your followers?

tis done, and thanks Shiney

Mini's session at nursery went really well I was really nervous about whether i would manage to walk into a room full of people, but it wasnt too busy, and i managed to stay for the entire hour and a half

They love her there, she is so confident and chatty - willing to please lol! At tidy up time, she was shouting, "can i tidy up please, can i , can i" and when they said yes, she shouted as loud as she could, "ooh, thank you. I love my big school"

I imagine AnneMumsnet to be a lot more stern than JustineMumsnet No idea why really

My connection is playing up, so excuse me if this double posts...hang on, I'll just test this first...

really - am I allowed? I think I better wait till a few more of the originals have emailed. I'll be patient and if we don't get up to 10 I'll email in

Shiney - has the money got to you yet? If not I think I'll ring my bank because I'm sure we are at 5 working days. It's left my account for sure so they've no excuse.

Jet - how lovely - you must have been all warm and proud!

I have just put sausage rolls in the oven for dinner but they were sort of home made (organic skinned sausages into puff pastry and sprinkled with sesame seeds) but I know it's naughty and I will be good t/m. Last night I did risotto which I think is quite well behaved.

blardy fireworks (I'm such a victor meldrew) are keeping DD awake (I can hear her 'chatting' away! It's going to be a long night...

If there are any left, I'd love to email.

Can never find the big tubs of 0% at my tescos

Right- have just puked copiously in bathroom sink (trauma number one, but I have been snotty all day so it is probably that), and trauma number two was that it was right after getting of the phone to DP and him telling me what was wrong with the car....

He picked me up from the station after picking the car up from its MOT (failed), and repairs which were lights, wipers and brake pads. But there was a horrible clunking noise- it sounded like a car the Clampetts would drive. We drove the mile or so home, and I was saying I wasn't keen on him taking dd2 and ds to his mum's for bonfire night in the daethtrap car. He said he'd get my brother to help him have a look at it before they set off....

Good bloody job they did! The front wheel had NO BOLTS screwed in, and it was effectively haging on by the tiny screw which holds the hubcap on!

I dread to think what might have happened to him and the kids if the wheel had come off at speed in traffic...I am still a bit freaked out tbh. All fixed now, but blimey, the Guardian Angel came to the rescue, I reckon. Either that or fate was just foiled today

A shameful thought, but it occurred to me that I really didn't want to be left on my own with dd2 Not that I mean, oh, you know what I mean....

Sorry, he was taking dd1, not 2. 2 is tucked up in bed while they've gone to the fireworks.

Thanks shiney - email sent. Very exciting. We should all come up with Yoghurt receipe ideas so we can really make the most of it!

BOF it does sound like someone is watching over your brood.

And why is that a shameful thought? Please don't feel that.

Oh it is quite shameful really - I just couldn't look after her on my own. Anyway, I'm being melodramatic now, but thankfully all's well that ends well.

Right-oh Shiney, have done.

BOF goodness, close shave there.
And don't feel bad about thinking that, when DH took up rock climbing, I told him he was selfish as I wouldn't be able to look after the bys by myself if he plunged to his death!
Not, I don't you to hurt yourself/kill yourself. I think he understood though, because he'd feel the same way!

OOh, Julie emailed me back for my address and delivery details!
How very exciting

hope you ok now BoF, sounds like a nightmare!!

had email back from julie, asking for best time slot for supermarket delivery Without sounding really greedy here, just how much youghurt are we talking about?[grin

I have had an e-mail too

BofF - blimey, there was a guardian angel looking over you....

Perhaps we are going to get flowers, champagne and chocs too >

I am going to roffle when a lorry arrives in my tiny street of terraced houses to deliver me a pot of yoghurt
