Technically he is my great uncle, but he's just uncle pat, I have seen him only a few times, which is more often than my proper uncles. To be honest I think he's glad it is over. He had a pretty horrid illness and he wanted to kill himself before it got bad but he couldn't (catholic mortal sin and all that). They asked for his brain so hopefully he can go towards helping find a treatment for others with it. My Grandad was glad he was there for the end but it was hard, it reminded him of when he found tommy (his best friend hanged himself) earlier this year. He said they had a big party for him after the funeral and the sneyds outsung the other side of the family, so despite everything it is a bit of a relief, he has been close to the end for a while. He still won't come down for Xmas though. I reminded him that he is always welcome and dad would pick him up and he would have his own space in the annex, but he won't come. Mum is back tomorrow afternoon though.
Jenna you'd have to gain A LOT to get a fat arse! So shush else I will settle my mighty arse on you
Sammy, hopefully you won't need to take jack to the drs, they have infant cough mix in boots, and calpol. Nate is still his cheeky self don't worry! His favourite thing is an old beer crate because he can climb on it and reach even more stuff! He is a monster for stealing fruit, I wouldn't mind if he wasn't turning his nose up at his meals. Little horror. It must just be easier on his tummy. It does sound like a horrid cough, like he is choking, so it sounds worrying but then he is fine again. There's a lot of it about. It won't stop him on Christmas though, scrambled egg, roast dinner, chocolate, he'll be loving it!
That's great about your double windfall scarlet. I couldn't imagine a family wanting the nanny there on Christmas day too, however lovely she is! It sounds like you are doing a good job with those boys too. A bit of soppiness is called for sometimes
Re Christmas, ive been ok so far (despite rubbish weightloss!) I have a feeling I will eat for Britain for those few days. Got a few ideas of what I will be having for synfulnesses but I'm going to have what I want when i want on the 25th until the end of the 28th (birthday), then back to basics after that. I don't really drink so new years is no issue, I lost weight over Easter, I don't go on holidays and usually have jacket potato when I'm out so it's not a regular thing. It is just holding off before then! Haha.
Ff is fast forward, a kind of block buster when your weightloss is going crap. It is super strict. No free foods, no healthy extras or syns. It was the mental block of not being able to go have a piece of fruit that broke me. I don't do being hungry. Mum and I have a similar bmi but the consultant didn't calculate the number of units based on mum's bmi but on her own (who is a healthy weight) so it wasn't very helpful Haha, other than to remind me to stop picking!
