And Lesinge, Cail Bruich that was the one that used to be a Greek restrant didn't it? Had some nice Mezes there once. As you know, we are saddos who never eat out any more. Surely you are not being shunned - isn't it a case of whatever works?

Oh Feck, as I write the Eddie Izzard programme is starting about his marathon thing and I was SUPPOSED TO BE GOING TO BED!! I feel I might have to watch having heard your ravings (saw him in 1995) Shall I stay up and watch? (Run out of wine emoticon) I shall blame you for eating cheese and crackers especially if I don't enjoy the programme wholeheartedly!

Who's doing the voiceover? Am annoyed already but shall put it aside.

LeSingeEstDansLarbre · 21/03/2010 22:43

generally david morissey, bernard hughes, john simm.

CheeeseOnToast · 21/03/2010 22:45

It's David Tennant I think, glasjam

LeSingeEstDansLarbre · 21/03/2010 22:49

oh yes it is, it definitely is.

glasjam · 21/03/2010 22:52

OK David Tennant, thanks CheeseonToast (what a name on a diet thread yum yum) - it's not too intrusive and a hell of a lot better than David Morrissey. Have been a bit of a DT basher but have warmed to him lately (probably because of DS's love of him in Dr Who)

This feels likes a hugely condensed programme - has there been a longer series of these on?

CheeeseOnToast · 22/03/2010 00:32

Yes glas I think it was originally shown over three hour-long episodes, have they squished it into an hour? Very inspiring. I do love Eddie Izzard, he's one of my fave comedians. I love the standup he does about the cat purring behind the sofa, or so you think: the cat is really drilling a hole! Or something like that. Clearly a) you had to be there and b) it needs to be told by someone funny!

Yes maybe I should namechange to something a bit more 'thinspirational', maybe lowfatcottagecheeseonrye?

Can't sleep, agh, shouldn't have had that three hour snooze earlier!

largeginandtonic · 22/03/2010 07:04

A 3 hour snooze! That is a night's sleep in tis house

I have been going to bed earlier but reading till too late. Books more addictive than TV.

The children are always up at 5. I can hold the smallest one off with a bottle for a while but only till the 2 year old is up then that is it. Night over!

I do feel better though. More alert in the day time. Not so grumpy. I think my grumpiness fading is also due to Crazette leaving my system. That was making me very grumpy.

Weigh in again for me this morning. Right after the school run. I have been very good. I hope it pays off.

High 5's mamag

My muffin tops are diminishing. I am soo pleased. I can't believe I'm really doing it

Come on people, GROUP HUG!

cyb · 22/03/2010 08:03

And if no one notices today I'm going to NUT them

isthatporridgeinyourhair · 22/03/2010 08:09

Well done Mama G.

Have tried new Jillian Willams DVD today - got a bit fed up with Davina. JW is a sadist - keeps saying things like "you gotta fight for it" and looking severe. Reminiscent of Su. But my bum aches now which I think is a good sign.

Yog, sprinkling of granola/ fruit for brekkie. Smoked salmon for lunch, grilled tuna (eating more fish so that can be complimented by random fishmongers).

Wide legged trousers - love them but look shit on me - is it becasue I'm too short at 5ft 5?

isthatporridgeinyourhair · 22/03/2010 08:11

Go Cyb go!

bobbiewickham · 22/03/2010 08:19

Morning all!

Am going to be super good today.

Have had porridge and am just about to go out for a run
