Missing meals won't help Brian,your body will store fat if it believes its being starved best way is to eat as often but smaller less calorific meals.(if only I could follow my own advice I,d be a size 10 again
)
Julie you will find you get better at Diy stuff with practice.I was very pleased with myself last winter when I dismantled and inblocked the kitchen sink.
The only things I wont attempt to touch now is gas and electric or cleaning gutters,I don't do heights,my next house might have to be a bungalow.
Sometimes I can just imagine Keith putting his hands over his eyes in despair though as I have made a few mistakes.Standing on the back of a setee to put a curtain rail up wasn't the best plan :whistle. .
The worst disaster was felling a large branch from a tree.I googled it,found a helpful video and sawed it all the right way but I didn't consider the balance,and the top end was too heavy it fell the right way,away from me as planned but the bottom flipped up and took two teeth out for me.Not my most intelligent move,and not what happened on utube. :rofl:last night I picked all the plums there wer hundreds of them bottled two huge jars before work,and tonight .Gave four bags away,and destoned and froze another 8 bags.I might defrost some and make chutney,Can't abide it myself but there's only so many crumbles a girl can eat,and there's rhubarb to get through as well.Chutney can be given away.
Also bought some swimming leggings for kayaking next week,although the weather forecast suggests it might not have been necessary,and a cheap waterproof camera,which the forecast suggests might be useful without necessarily going on the water.
