Very quiet on here tonight.

Heidi back to full fitness,had a full tin of tuna plus she chased a cat😀.She also scratched the door I had painted yesterday, when she want to go out she dives at the door with her paws.My last dog could open the same door even when it was locked.

I had an early night last night just before midnight when I got in bed.Heidi has tuna two or three times a week mixed with iams adult dry food.

Good afternoon, Denise is watching United on the telly so think it’s time to take Heidi out.Just had a peppered beef toasties so full at the moment.Living room finished just need new carpet and sofa’s.Denise us giving me a rest not starting the stairs yet until she decides what colour carpet we are getting.

Hockey tonight and tomorrow so two late nights 🤪🤪🤪

Tell Steve happy birthday, lovely sunny day here,I have received a letter from the pension office saying I will get £142 per week,the new pension is £160 odd pounds per week,I thought I should have qualified for that so will have to wait and see.If the worst comes to the worst I will still be £570 per month better off.Went to bed at 3am this morning,it was worth staying up great game.Will be the same again tonight.

Jean- Happy birthday to Steve! 🎂🍷Nice to have birthday money to spend on his bike! 5 not 7 would make a big difference with the dog…enjoy the rest of your time away!
Dave- naughty Heidi! Xena scatches at doors, she can open them sometimes, not marked any yet thankfully! Hope you have a decent break from the decorating, remind Denise you’re not as fit as you used to be!!
Kay- hope the weather improves & you can get out. Keep strong with the 800 cals next week!
Minols- hope you get your cleaning done!
Something has spilt in the bottom of my oven already 😢
Lazy afternoon, Xena has been tired as she had a long walk & play with some dogs in the park this morning…she’s now getting restless so time to keep her out of mischief!!

Morning all!
Dave- Think I ate too much yesterday as well, stuck to keto though…I’d find fasting until late at night really tough, I don’t know how you do it!
Fasting today, hungry already grr 😡 Taking mum to the solicitors to sign POA forms, hopefully the last time!
Hope all the fasters have a good day!

Afternoon All..
We are having a good time.. meal last night was so disappointing and with a flat atmosphere, we left, everywhere was dead in the town, then we found a full pub, people eating, candles on table and low 60s music it saved the night..a lovely market in Bakewell this morning better than the tit tat you normally find. You will be impressed we walked past the chocolate rejects stall and cake stalls.. we never brought any chocolate with us we forgot.

Found 6 lovely glasses in a charity shop for serving desserts in.. a nice V shape on a stem £1.50.. bought a brown leather belt made locally on the market..

Sat having a drink and reading resting our legs now 😂

Hedgehog..
Decided against the dog.. we really had a good discussion Steve said we could go and look and have him if he was right..but I had decided against it..if he had had a bad home then something happened to us it wouldn’t be fair to him.. Steve and hospital appointments we are not tip top.. dalmations need to burn off energy… shame really but the right decision, maybe a smaller dog if we wasn’t going away so much.

Hope you sorted Mum out and you are keeping Zena busy..

Dave..
We have eaten too much will be glad to get back to normal again…fasting Wednesday and Thursday..

Home tomorrow

Have a good fast day ..

Jean x

Quiet today!
Dave- keep strong later then. If you can do it 3 days should help, but you’ve done that before haven’t you?
Jean- being very well behaved at the market! Probably a wise decision on the dog as he’s younger tgan you thought. There’s a dog rescue site called golden oldies which rehomes dogs 7 yrs+ if you wanted to look.
Mum sorted at the solicitors, we spent ages in Tesco with her wandering about, stuff on her list she couldn’t remember what she wanted it for, would’ve tested hubby’s patience, but I try to see the funny side! Sadly she gets upset easily, you never quite know what’ll set her off in tears, random stuff, so stayed for a while when we got back. Some cleaning done this afternoon, the day seems to be going quick enough, feel quite strong this afternoon!

Didnt get out for our meal yesterday as had a rough weekend emotionally and couldnt face people.

Today the sun has been out and that has really helped. I had an interview at a local holiday park working on reception but I didnt get a warm feeling about it, so we will see.
I also went to see a lady in the village about looking after her 2 cockapoos on Thursday whilst she has a hospital appointment. Crikey they are quite boisterous and it will be a fun afternoon!!

I worked on Saturday doing some self employed cleaning. It was hard graft for 3 of us but I earned myself £79.

HH, another thing sorted for your mum.
Jean, hope you are having a lovely break. Happy Birthday Steve.
Dave, how was the stirfry? Hockey tonight?

Kx

HH not seen it,I go shopping tomorrow so will keep my eyes peeled,I try to avoid the chocolate isle if I can but resistance is futile sometimes🍫,no hockey tonight, will watch a film on Netflix, maybe.

Afternoon All..
Home now unpacked and washing on…bought two gilets from a charity shop, one each really nice..in the washer..

We have had a good two days lots of visiting and walking….bought lots of bits and pieces..

The food at the hotel/pub was very disappointing..we had a good breakfast this morning, just happened to say to the girl, ‘is there a different chef on’ we were just saying what had happened the day before, when she brought him through , he was the manager and his wife (serving)..they were just back off holiday…we just told them what happened over the two days..the very bad meal our first night, our first breakfast, then last night..we walked in with another couple, at 7pm, they ordered first..he fell with his drinks the staff helped him ..when coming back to the bar 4 mins later, they said kitchen was closed…everywhere last night in the town all food was finished…we had a boxed sandwich and a packet of biscuits from a Spar and had our picnic watching TV!..the kitchen should of been open till 8pm…they have offered us a free stay, I don’t know whether we will accept it, the birthday treat has been spoilt…that’s life!…thank goodness for our caravan, the food is always good 😂

Kay..
Sorry you are feeling low..things hit you when you least expect them..hope you are feeling better today…good luck on the job front…better weather is on it’s way..camping too…

Hedgehog..
Choccy sounds lovely…too much here are the moment…have a good day with the boys..

Dave..
Good luck on your three FDs..we are doing that for the month…

All very quiet on here at the moment…is there anyone out there who wants to join us?

Jean x

Weather mixed here too, now very grey.

Just broken my fast of 16.5 hours with porridge. Now need to plan tea using up the veg in the fridge.

Jean, how disappointing about the food whilst you were away. At least you had a lovely time mooching around.

Dave, I dont go anywhere near the chocolate aisle!

Hi all.

On the road yesterday so didn’t get a chance to drop by.

Sorry your break was so disappointing, Jean.

I’m sticking with the TRE until Friday if I can cos we’re away for a long weekend up north and in the past the food Di not disappoint! I’m expecting great things…

We’ll done on your long day without food, Kay. I generally make it to about 3 as well…mus remember the porridge option.

The boy is now off for half term so i’m trying to wind down this week with him too…but entertaining him and 2 neighbourhood kids is going to be interesting for the next 2 days!

Where do you live Kay it’s dark here in darkest Manchester 😎

We were talking Denise and I about Brexit and maybe going on holiday at home in Cornwall or Devon.Have a nice cream tea🤤🤤🤤. Denise was born in Devon (Plymouth).

Jam, clotted cream, scones🍰

Morning All..
Weather seems to be improving maybe get the grass cut over the next couple of days…shh Steve doesn’t know this yet..😂

We are fasting today and tomorrow…too much food was eaten!

Steve is having a garage day…..a charity bag has arrived…I have some things I am not parting with, maybe today is the day…I thought I would go through some clothes which are in boxes, tidy as I go, and in the bag they go 😬…Steve can’t understand why I keep them they are far too big anyway…umm

Windows need washing too…uummm ..I don’t like washing windows…not today.

Kay..
Lovely to have later nights…I think we are still darker than you..I will check and watch tonight…

Dave..
We have booked Devon and Cornwall twice now and had to cancel…it seems as if we are jinx…been through it a lot on the bike but not stopped to see much…best cream tea we had was in the Isle of Wight, each portion was two huge scones with the jam and cream..it was like eating a dinner!…don’t forget the butter!

Minols..
Hope you managed the play date..they can get noisy….enjoy your trip up North..

Hedgehog..
The night on the beach sounds lovely hot tub too…how can you have a hot tub but no electricity in the cabin?..are your taking your guard dog 😂..must take a throw away bbq, if allowed.

We did it in Goa, in a rush hut..just loved the sound of the breaking of the waves…we did have one light and mosquito net over the bed 😀 and cold water shower 😲and loo…very basic..such fun, we dressed as hippies, had a drink at the beach bar…. the next day I had red paint all over my neck looked like my throat had been cut..just the paint off the cheap beads!!…we was about 55..aging hippies..

Zena is an early girl..is it the lighter mornings…Symba was a tinker at the 4am start in the summer…slept better winter colder days.

Must move and see what I am going to do….

Fasting with you hedgehog…2 lamb chops and salad for tonight…just looked at them if I keep my glasses on they will look bigger 😂

Jean x

All this talk about cream teas and Devon and Cornwall….its all about getting the jam and clotted cream in the right order!!

Cornwall is the right way 😂🤣
Jam first…..but enough of cream tea talk. None allowed today!!

Just had a spot of cream in my coffee to keep me going til my first meal later. Only 22 cals so not really classed as breaking fast if its under 50 cals. But its filling!

Smother in lurpak then jam then creme😋😋😋

Is it available in Manchester?

Will look for a local one not sure Sainsbury’s sell them though.
