I'm here blondes, not going anywhere, but I'm a disgrace on the diet front Blush

Hope your friend can move on, but it takes time.

Did my training for my census form collector job, we did role play etc, have lots of stuff to read up, should earn some money for summer.

I have another app form to fill in tomorrow for voluntary work at a local 6th form college, something else I want to try, working with young special needs 16 to 19.

Bebe I remember going through pt with ds, he did it in his pants, she will do it before pre-school I'm sure.

We are off to see yet another house this evening, this one is south facing garden but not as good a house as the other one!

I saw that supersize vs superskinny programme is on next week, I am going to watch BL USA tonight, or has it finished?

Blondeshavemorefun · 22/03/2011 18:37

watching tbl but sky+ supersize kids

Blondeshavemorefun · 22/03/2011 18:38

and why disgrace on diet?

yes she will move on again and find love but she feels she wasted the last 4years of her life with him on and off

RatherBeOnThePiste · 22/03/2011 19:08

Yes BL USA tonight.

I like that supersize prog but find that man doc a bit weird, ESP his hair which is like this Confused

RatherBeOnThePiste · 22/03/2011 19:28

Bebe - help!! This is so much your thing. DD has to enter a craft competition and the category that she is keen to do is 3 small decorated cakes ( fairy cake size ) the theme is the royal wedding. Any ideas?! Her talents do not lie in crafty things. We would probs use roll out White icing.

Blondeshavemorefun · 22/03/2011 20:07

Have said before over feeding your child is abuse

bebejones · 22/03/2011 20:12

Hmmmmm could you maybe make a crowns & hearts out of icing to decorate the top of the cakes? Or make wedding outfits on the cakes like this? These are also quite good here
Also I have seen it on big cakes, but you could do something like this if you could find a small enough doll to stick in it & just ice buttercream on like this to create a wedding dress?

With using fondant you can roll it out and cut it in a circle to fit ontop of the cake, stick with a little buttercream or glace icing to give a nice smooth base to work on.

Will let you know if I think of anything else! :)

'claps bebe'

smokinaces · 22/03/2011 21:36

Im here, but juggling a bit at the moment so although I am trying to eat well I'm not actively dieting if that makes sense?

got the consultant Thursday. and going through some shitty stuff at work. add to that the fact that I met a guy saturday who I really liked, that hasnt text me yet and I'm a bit Sad

but aiming to at least sts at 11st 6 this friday, or try and drop one. hopefully.

Blondeshavemorefun · 22/03/2011 21:43

'blondes ears prick up'

tell me us more about this man

smokinaces · 22/03/2011 21:53

He seemed really nice Blondes. wee bit older than me, friend of a friend, really sweet, intelligent, good looking etc. Ended up stranded 30 miles from home, so came back to mine - but I am a good girl, so just a wee bit of first base Grin He seemed really keen, kept talking about going out next week for dinner, and one night in the week. Said he would talk to me yesterday - but havent heard yet Sad

Havent done this for a long time - dont know whether to text him first, and if so when, or whether to just leave it?

Added each other on FB yesterday morning, but he's not been on it since (unlike me the FB junkie)

argh. Now I know why I was single for 2 years!!!

Blondeshavemorefun · 22/03/2011 22:04

'whispers' im also a fb junkie Blush

he sounds nice, dare i ask what 1st base is Grin

def send a text and say enjoyed the other evening, must do it again

smokinaces · 22/03/2011 22:06

1st base is basically what you would do as a 15 year old virgin and no more Wink no "sex" of any kind Wink

did the text thing with him sunday - he still seemed keen - and thats when he said we'd talk tomorrow (which would have been Monday)

little complicated as mutual friend involved, so worried now that he's been put off.

argh.

Blondeshavemorefun · 22/03/2011 22:08

but def fondling eh

well i fondled at 15 Wink

Blondeshavemorefun · 22/03/2011 22:09

maybe send one tomo afternoon and say something along the lines

gawd had a manic week, thanks god nearly the weekend- hoes things been with you?

smokinaces · 22/03/2011 22:14

Blondes I was a bit naughtier than that at 15, but wasnt going to tell him that!! Wink

think I will. I really would like to see him again.

Blondeshavemorefun · 22/03/2011 22:29

We would get on very well in rl Smokin Grin

I was a semi good girl at 15 Wink

Blondeshavemorefun · 23/03/2011 07:32

morning slinks

the sun is shinning :)

2 days to wi :(

RatherBeOnThePiste · 23/03/2011 08:12

The sun is shining and my lovely SIL and gorgeous pickle pants nephews are airborne away from radiated Tokyo! My bro isn't coming as they couldn't afford it - it's the most expensive route I swear but he needs to work. I'm not so worried about him, he will happily fend for himself. They are having to do an indirect and lengthy trip via Helsinki and won't actually srrive at heathrow until Late this evening. But they are en route!

Yes two days until weigh in bUt i had a sneaky peak and currently I
Am sts. At least it isn't a plus and the decline has stopped!

GettinTrimmer · 23/03/2011 08:13

Does anybody have a goal to aim for? Last year we had weddings, etc,

smokin agree with Blondes send a text. Hope it goes ok.

RatherBeOnThePiste · 23/03/2011 08:15

And the sun is shining and DD has an appointment to have her fixed brace removed this afternoon! Please all keep your fingers crossed it happens!

GettinTrimmer · 23/03/2011 08:16

Piste what a relief they are on their way, just watching on news earlier advising not to give babies tap water Sad Remind us how old nephews are.

Soup for lunch for me before I am at school for lunchtime, then yogurt and fruit when I get home.

RatherBeOnThePiste · 23/03/2011 08:16

I don't have a goal GT. I wish I did. We are going on holiday in August but that is just us. No weddings this year. I think everyone had done that!

bebejones · 23/03/2011 08:23

I have stuff to aim for. Friends hen do on the 16th April, and then wedding on the 18th June. I'd like to be 10st by the wedding in June. But won't achieve it if I keep being bad! Also have another wedding on 29th July, so would like to maintin the June weight or get to 10st by then if I don't make it by June IYSWIM?

Piste - glad your family are on their way :)
