That is stunning. No need for a TV or a book when you have that view.

So far so good T, thanks for thinking of us.

Lists, you gotta start doing lists man ?

They don't help, I had a list of everyone's birthdays on my kitchen wall so I would know as I've loads of nephews and nieces and I still forgot all the time. I blame being inactive off work , my brain is turning to pulp lol

@anjelikaferrett when we started to diet people said "ah it is only water you lose and you will put it straight back on " well the first part might be right as we are 80% water but the second is willpower .
We weigh ourselves every Thursday morning naked and then there is no hiding ,you do want to know how it is going .My tip is basically as said above don't deny yourself any meal but restrict it -if they are not so good -to one per week and we try to have just one meal per weekend with creams and cheeses .
On the weighing thing ,you will have good weeks and bad but the good ones spur you on and the bad encourage you to try a little harder .If you can support the blues through these times then you can do it .

There is logic there though as once most people take even a holiday off work they forget what day it is never mind more complex stuff.

Hoping to start this week. Trying to get as many loose ends as possible tied up lest I go down with Covid as well as the lad and have to stay in.

I can attest to that, days all roll into one, I never know the actual date we are on without purposely looking.

The flip side of that though (for me) is that when you have something coming up you really do look forward to it even more.

@jazzy So I’ve looked across the usual guitar specific resale sites (reverb.com and oh guitar) and there are a few for sale in the states and Europe
They appear to be going to about 130 usd and the same in euro so I would pitch it at about £120 if it’s in decent nick

That's brilliant , thanks mate.

Hey there are a few Mascoteers up early today so morning to everyone.

@fandjango thanks buddy for your assistance o guitar valuation , the animals will love you.

@Barnfred 55 sounds like you are doing well mate . Good stuff.

Another gorgeous day here. Cold of course but very dry. So off to stock up on supplies for mum and then believe it or not I'm going to cut the grass.

@Sassy Colombian hope you aren't snowed in and soon get good news about the job.

Have a lovely day everyone.

Good luck Anj, I've lost 6 stone, don't deny yourself foods you like for a diet, it's all about control. Still eat what you want but portion it down. If you start restricting yourself that's when you start feeling down and tempted.

We are all here for you for support.

So I bought a meatloaf, never had it before and I'm not sure it's what I thought it was, ended up freezing it lol anyone any tips.

Re meatloaf as a veggie I’m not the best person to advise but personally I’d do anything but I won’t do that.lol Hope your headache improves soon.

I’m constantly forgetting what day it is - that may have something to do with old age though!

 

[Terrarian]

I'm getting organised, small mercies lol Going to pick my parcel up shortly and then Drs, I will move forward today.

I went to Speke comp that was the proddy school, All Hallows’ was the catholic one, yes remember Barry very well, he use to drink in the Metal box social club

I think Barry’s brother passes away a few years ago

Yeah. My brother was on the same Metal Box snooker team with Barry and Ian Crockett and Denise Fisher that won the Garston League Cup back in the day. Funnily enough Dennis was showing photos of that night too on Saturday. Not sure if you knew Dennis. He has dementia sadly. I didn't realise.

I knew Freddys brother Ray quite well. He played footie for us for a shirt while. Saw him posting on the Speke Group you linked. Did you know Robbie Ireland. He'd be about your age.
