A small positive

I am managing to drink 2 pints of water at least every day plus two cups of tea.

I started a baby cardie for a friend who's just had a little girl.

Thanks Rambler, hubby can get home on his own but it's a half an hour walk or half hour wait for the bus when he's already been on his feet all day.

It will keep me going till lunchtime - that's about 6hrs for me. It's never affected my weight loss,

Road salt.

Earlier this week the gardening company arrived at 7:30 a.m. They proceeded to sprinkle road salt on all our paths, this is a great idea as ...
