Thanks TC

bellavita · 11/05/2010 21:17

Am glad you like it Yank, I was dithering in the shop over which one to get.

TrillianAstra · 11/05/2010 21:17

Well done Yank - you should def set little goals and have a treat every time you hit a certain weight. I think Jet did that at the beginning, with things like 'nail varnish' for an intermediate goal and 'haircut' for a bigger goal.

MitsubishiWarrioress · 11/05/2010 21:18

Oh thank you Crispy . It is all exterior if I do.. if I listed the cock ups I have made in the last week I would come across like a bumbling, slightly startled moron. Everything from watching a helicopter and nearly walking in front of a (fortunately slow moving) car to paying my rent into my credit card account.

I'll try not to spoil the illusion though

Lizzylou · 11/05/2010 21:18

Right, off to watch Luther in HD, I am so to admit I can't really tell the difference to our old cheapo set.

Yank, so pleased all is sorted now with car (and new shoes!) and you sound far happier. How are DS's eyes?

Mitts, you are sounding perky

Hey Bella

Alicetheinvisible · 11/05/2010 21:19

Trills - DD has grown out of her lovely shoes

Lizzy - DH does that, drives me mad!

Yank - my feet WILL NOT swell ok? I thought they would be better being leather so could stretch a little if needed...
As long as i can still fit into my wellies all will be ok, although i am planning on getting some wellibobs

bellavita · 11/05/2010 21:27

What are wellibobs Alice?

MitsubishiWarrioress · 11/05/2010 21:29

I feel perky Lizzy.. it is nice, a bit of a bugger that being perky is usually accompanied by feeling horny fruity but it does mean I have energy and a smile

jetcat · 11/05/2010 21:29

yank - trills is right, i had little rewards if i did well at weigh in. Seems to have gone a bit awry lately though I will have to just plan a mega treat soon glad car is sorted

i have missed loads of chat today, so wont even pretent to admit that i have caught up, but i hope everyone is well

424 words down, so not too bad. Have managed to get mini looked after tomorrow, so i can get a full day in. I usually have to resort to putting her into nursery on these occastions, but family friend (those who put the shelves up) offered. I will have to get up early though to take her through on the train (15 min ride) and am a bit nervous, more about coming back on my own than going with her, as she just entertains everybody buy singing really loudly and insisting she clips the tickets

Alicetheinvisible · 11/05/2010 21:29

Since you ask Bella these now bear in mind they are not a fashion statement, more that they are useful for doing horses when not muddy

YanknCock · 11/05/2010 21:32

Lizzy, DS's eyes seem better today, I think the ointment is double the strength of the drops and it does stick in the eye so is finally doing something! If he wakes up tomorrow without gunge he will go to nursery and I can go to work.

DH has to leave early in the morning for a meeting in coventry and won't be back till Thursday night.

bella, you made an excellent choice, it is gorgeous. MrCock also approves and thanks you for the chocolate (it would have been rude not to share).

Trills, I think you are right. My next goal is 16st 4 (which will be another 1/2 stone off). Will have to think of a suitable non-food reward.

bellavita · 11/05/2010 21:35

Alice, those are fab!! I could do with a pair for going into the garden in when the grass is wet and I need to hang the washing out or when I attempt to do some gardening.

Fruity eh Mitts - g'night x

Well, seen as MrCock has been stressed too, I don't mind him having a choc!!

YanknCock · 11/05/2010 21:36

Alice, I am snurking at that site.....'Request a catazine'. A catazine!? I assume thats catalog + magazine?

Alicetheinvisible · 11/05/2010 21:40

Yank - don't you laugh at the catazine! I get sent one every month to fawn over

Bella - they have the added benefit of being comfy to ride in too.

I am umming and aahing about going to bed. Had about 4hrs last night, but feel that i would rather go to bed when i feel i can no longer stay awake instead of taking ages getting comfortable.

Soak in the bath perhaps....

TrillianAstra · 11/05/2010 21:40

Where are bloody Waitrose? I know the slot is 8-10 but I am tired and want them here and gone.

bellavita · 11/05/2010 21:47

Nope, sorry, don't know Trills! Always the way though when you want them to arrive earlier.

bellavita · 11/05/2010 21:50

Jet, if you can meet someone that is loitering outside a shop on a Sunday lunchtime, then you will be absolutely fine on that train Have you got a magazine to put in your bag to read on the way back?

YanknCock · 11/05/2010 21:55

Alice, it will be me blushing now, I googled 'catazine' and apparently it is a well known term and I am totally behind the times in the world of mail order shopping

TotalChaos · 11/05/2010 21:56

Mitts - glad you are feeling perkier

jet - agree with bella - get some "props" to calm you down for journey back - mag/drink/book

alice - sweet dreams

TrillianAstra · 11/05/2010 21:57

It is a funny word. Definitely. I try my hardest to get companies to not post me that stuff, I like to do my browsing in a paper-free way

TotalChaos · 11/05/2010 21:57

so is a catazine just a cross between a catalogue and magazine??? i just assumed it was a cute word for a catalogue full of cat merchandise?

jetcat · 11/05/2010 21:59

i will take my little mp3 i think, it shouldnt be too busy so i should be ok

Bella - your DH jam is delicious

jetcat · 11/05/2010 22:01
bellavita · 11/05/2010 22:01

Am glad you like it jet

YanknCock · 11/05/2010 22:09

Why didn't they go with 'magalogue' so as to avoid confusion with cat-themed magazines?
