Thanks Ruth

Well,pleased with the couple of pound gain, Chinese takeaway, ate my body weight in Barnicutts pasties, haddock and chips X 3, burger chips, Prezzo meal out no holds barred, lager pit, cider pit....yeah, I done good!

The wedding celebration was a wonderful occasion. A fantastic celebration. An emotional day. A mixed marriage with Breaking the glass, Mazel tov cor the grooms side, my sis in law circulating amongst the tables never seen her so happy. I gave a speech on behalf of the family to officially welcome the groom. My daughters read poems,flawlessly, so,proud of my girls. It was a fine day.

I too am not looking forward to going to work but hey ho ... Just read in the new edition of the slimming world magazine that they have bought out a chip shop curry sauce available from Iceland so that's my fake takeaway for Friday night sorted...just got to get this week out the way.

 

[Quins]

Hi Rara, Ooh that sounds nice, I'm still on a quest to find somewhere local that sells the mayflower curry sauce, I love it but can't find it anywhere nearby.

Do you have a B&M near by they sell it or I have seen it on Amazon.

 

[Quins]

No B&M, Farm Foods or a 3rd shop i can't remember the name of. I might ask one of the local farm shops if they can get it in. Or get onto Morrisons customer services to see if they can get it.

Jeez that max speed is very scary.

I think your syns have been 'good' syns healthy it's not as though you're binging on cake & biscuits!

 

[Quins]

Hi Michelle, I knew it was fast but didn't get a peak at the Garmin at the time. A nice down hill, wide , good view no obstructions so we pushed it a bit. I flew past a couple of others. I think you're right about the syns, but I do seem to have a very weak period , usually after dinner later in the evening when I get the raging munchies. I ate later tonight , had to poo pick a paddock before dinner so didn't eat till gone 8pm. Still had some nuts and a banana early on, but I wasn't craving anything later.

Thanks Ruth, I'm enjoying my food and cooking. I made a very nice Dahl over Sunday night into Monday in the slow cooker.
