Ahhhh, sweet! My dd who is just 4 has a poster in her room with all the planets on, I got it from the local garden centre and it is brill, has a little fact box about each planet too, would that help? Or usbourne might do some chld friendly websites, will have a look!
human that sounds exciting, is he a kind of guru then?
I really don't mind about the mentioning the weight thing, I was sat up with my top hoiked up on a wheely chair thing, so not my most flattering position, but she is right and I am really not easily offended at all. She had been telling me about a 60 year man who had just been in for a blood test ( I had one first and she asked me if I was ok with it, and I said 'i have had two children crack on) and he had whimpered and flinched, I was laughing so much at that I think she thought we were mates!!!!! 
The book is good, very slimming worldy ie eat 7 portions of starch a day, 8 portions of veg or fruit, 3 of protein and only 100 calories from fat. So very sensible and actually much better than MFP which is quite limiting for pasta and rice etc. so I might use that instead.
Either way it is a good wake up call, and in fact a distinct reality unless I get my arse (literally) sorted out!
Haing said that, it is Friday and I have some wine with my name on a a thread full of drunk people to deal with!
