The front!

Ah that explains it! And why my back garden is always so far behind it sometimes never catches up

Lovely to see you back on here Tet!

Thanks Sticki..but you arent allowed to show me any of your lovely cakes..on a very strict diet (sheesh cant have ANY fun!!). Lost a stone, but a long way to go..should be 4st by Christmas (Ha!)

Wow a stone is brilliant. Don't worry trying not to eat any cake myself!

29 Jun, 2012

 

WHAT 4 stone?

Oh dear the diet thing is it......good luck Tet, I am just a pill popper now lol

Doc's orders DD! You are very sweet Sticki but that's just the tip of the iceberg..year two will finish me off if the weight doesnt lol!!!

You should put some recipes on Sticki, most on here are certainly not slimming aids lol, especially malteaser cake! Tet, that's a lot to have lost already, do you feel any benefit? Is OH helping you? It would be easier if you could get gardening wouldn't it? I have heard we're having summer in September. Just thought...you'll have to buy new clothes or are you any good at altering?:-)

tet is very good BA ~ at everything or were you offering the services of BA fashions?

my local GC has a sign up 'Summer is the new Spring'
~ is that the right way round? maybe it says 'Spring is the new Summer'??

recipes? what sort would you like BA?

2 Jul, 2012

 

Very helpful BA, especially the mention of the Malteser Cake..not! LOL!
I have a wardrobe full of differing sizes. Wont buy anything new til I reach my target weight of 4 st loss. Oh must remember to have a sign done to stick around my neck - just in case you dont recognise me!!

Sticki, nice tasty low sat fat recipes... you know the ones, that taste as good as as they do you:-)

3 Jul, 2012

 

Yes B.A.Fashions has a half price sale on at the moment, but Sticki...as if I was touting for business!
Tet, at the very least I shall expect before and after pics. Better still pics showing different stages of your makeover until perfection is reached...like I did with my garden. I've just had a stroke of genius...have you seen that new Love Your Garden prog? (Groundforce with knobs on) well we could get Alan around to do it in double quick time...maybe a little topiary?:-)

Got a great new recipe book for just that type of thing BA, will look to see the best one.

3 Jul, 2012

 

Goodo:-)
