Lyra, Berrie, Zeb, Binkle and Oggsfrog - new chat thread here.

[LyraSilvertongue]

Hope you all find me.

Oh dear...sorry about that. Guess dh working away has advantages sometimes!

Yes. Thank God.

Poor Zeb. Will you eat it yourselves?

I've just been food shopping and spent too much . They were doing 3 bottles of one of dh's fav wines for £10 so I bought six. I'll have to get him to hide the bloody things .

I always spend too much food shopping. Once I get into a cheese shop that's it.

And as for the calf, unfortunately it's a case of getting the hunt in. But DH is now trying to appeal, so we'll see.

If it's not passported can't you just pretend it doesn't exist and eat it yourself. T'would be a waste if the hunt got to have it.

The cow we had was one that had been wild on the hill and had never been passported. Just got somebody with a humane killer to come and we strung it up in the trees.

You're right, but I'm not sure. I'm not really going to be discussing it with DH for now - it doesn't help that it was one of the best heiffer calves we had this year.

Aw. Sorry for going on about it Seen any good Hugh films recently?

That's more like it. Friday night I am dreading.

Nope, no recent Hugh-movies, but I guess I could re-watch one of them tonight with a bottle of something white and cold to cheer me up now I have a nice collection. Which do you suggest? And did you EVER a) watch Animal Attraction or b)receive Paperback Hero?

Done the pictures at last. They're on my profile.
Now I just have to save them all to a CD and take them into town to be printed out.

Oggs, are you DeniseVanMead?

Moi?

I knew it!

Oh it looks fab Lyra, dc look like they are having loads of fun!

Coo

So where do you appear as DeniseVanMead Oggs?

My sickness is long gone Oggs, shame about the rotton hangover this morning though!

You too eh Berrie?
Zeb toddles off to make Team Coffee.

Hangovers on a Thursday morning?
What happened to mid-week abstention? Are oggs and I on our own?

On the subject of diets, if you guys are after a quick fix, have you considered Lighter Life? Some of the mums at school have done it and they've lost huge amounts of weight. One has lost (I think) 8 stone. Another, who I was speaking to at the weekend, has lost 3 stone in 3 months. Just something to consider...

I fell off the wagon Lyra. I am deeply ashamed.
I've heard good things about lighter life too. I understood it was expensive though.

Sorry I've not been about much, I've been trying to get organised for the salon, went to Spain at the weekend to visit a friend who moved out there last year and I thought if I dont go now I wont get to go for ages with the business.

My friends mum did Lighter Life and dropped loads of weight and my SIL is on Cambridge Diet at the mo which is all liquid too I think - I'm considering it but just dont know if I have the willpower although hopefully when I am on my feet all day soon I will a/ be too busy to slob around drinking tea and scoffing biscuits b/ the weight will drop off naturally

Sorry Lyra, that's a well-deserved telling off. But yesterday was a v crap day - DH still hasn't spoken to me. Not even texted.

Hey Binkle - how's the massage parlour business going?

It is but the results seem to be worth it. I'd do it if I had a little more to lose. I think the minimum's 3 stone or something.

Zeb, you are forgiven under the circumstances
I did have a teensy weensy glass myself after the planning application news on Monday.
Hope things are ok with DH when he comes home.

How much is it Lyra? The website doesn't say.

Hey Binkle!
