WEIGHT WATCHERS WEEK 8

Minus 500g I'm feeling really discouraged right now, only one kilo in two weeks, these results seem out of all proportion to the efforts I'm making. It's so very hard to be self sustaining when the results are so laborious, I almost gave in tonight, I...

THERE'S NO PLEASING SOME PEOPLE!

Sometimes it doesn't pay to be uncomplaining! For at least two years now I haven't been able to receive ITV1 on my old television inherited from Mum five years ago (she had it for at least 10 before that!) But last week I also lost BBC2, leaving me with...

THE PERFECT MAN

Someone just told me his Nintendo brain trainer was telling him he is 25 years younger than he is and he is considering plastic surgery to get a body that corresponds to his new age. He asked me who I fancied the most and I had to think hard...here's...

THE WHEELS ON THE BUS GO ROUND AND ROUND

I wrote on Sunday about females in the eighteenth century resorting to any means at their disposition to alleviate the harshness of their existance...you know what? nothing has changed. Today, as then, it seems that women cannot afford integrity if they...

HURRAH

I've just had a text from baby sis telling me she got a first for her presentation on Surgical Instruments in Ancient Greece and Rome (and their modern day equivalents)...hang on a minute, you mean the one I did all the research for? Yay, well done baby...

ANOTHER ONE BITES THE DUST

Until now, I was too discouraged to write about my latest experience with male inconsistancy, but now time has mellowed my rage to resignation towards what I probably should have recognised as the inevitable outcome of getting involved with a man who...

DISORDERLY GIRLS

DISORDERLY GIRLS
At the moment I'm reading the true story of the Lady Julian, a ship commissioned to transport female convicts to Botany Bay from eighteenth century Britain. The Floating Brothel by Sian Rees tells of the rough justice meted out to women when one hundred...

WEIGHT WATCHERS WEEK 7

Minus 500g ...which is just about a miracle when you consider that I went away for the weekend AND ate out at a restaurant last night AND had an ice cream tub at the theatre. I was sure I'd put something on so I'm quite pleased. Total loss 8kg 750g Aim...

THEATRE ROYAL

I was taken out to the theatre tonight. The golfer and I went to see a comedy at the Theatre Royal, Margate. I remember when I used to live in France, Mum and I always used to have an evening out at the theatre whenever I came on holiday. It seems a long...

UNBELIEVABLE!

I recently told you the story of sailor boy, but I didn't tell you what my reaction was...I actually just ignored him and deleted his address from my contacts. Well, today I got another email from him: "I'm coming home on Saturday, I suppose a date is...

GREEN TEA

I've been reliably informed that green tea helps with weight loss. Apparently, studies in the United States have revealed that the equivalent of 3 cups of green tea a day had the effect of inhibiting weight gain in rats that had been fed a high calorie...

WELCOME TO CHERBOURG

Good news! The L.family is moving to Cherbourg so we may well be seeing much more of them. Two hours 45 to Portsmouth, then three hours on the car ferry, it's a long way, but very doable. I'm really looking forward to long weekends away and sampling the...

HOW MUCH!

Last week a bright little light started winking at me from my dashboard, it was red and twinkly and accompanied by a discreet, almost timid little beep beep beep and a tentative "Air bag" message where the CD display telling me just which Mamma Mia song...

THE AUTUMN LEAVES

Even though the colour of the trees is beautiful at this time of year and there's a certain wild lovliness in the windswept countryside, I don't like the Autumn with its taste of a long, cold Winter to come. Rain, wind, huge amounts of energy expended...

QUANTUM OF SOLACE

Wowee Mister Bond, what a roller coaster ride! Exciting, scary, very pleasing on the eye - thanks to Daniel Craig. An all action movie and the first Bond film I've actually liked, well worth going to see.

ANY THOUGHTS ON CHRISTMAS?

Do any of you know what you're doing at Christmas yet? Baby sis and I are planning a themed Caribbean Christmas with Pina Coladas, rum punch, sarongs, sunglasses, Reggae music and typical Jamaican food...will any of you be able to join us? Do you have...
