[albaqwerty]

Morning Sagz x

Am good thank you, it's tiddling outside and it can stay there :-D

[WELSHYORKIE]

Morning Sagz, morning sweetpea. Looking very grey and dull outside but, thankfully, not raining yet. Howling galesand plenty of rain expected later on. Still coughing and spluttering - 3 bloody weeks i've had this darned cold now!!

Morning sweetcheeks. xx

The weather forecast for your part of the world (and Boaty's, Lady J, Ratter and DT and, well you get the drift !) is pretty horrific.

Have you an appointment to see the Doc?

[WELSHYORKIE]

Been to the doc on Wednesday and got penicillin vk - 1, 4 times a day to be taken an hour before food so at the moment i'm starving as well!!! The coughing is really p!ssing me off now and the nose blowing - I look like bloody Rudolph lol.

Morning all - a good day for not getting up

[waterboatman]

Morning albs. xxx Welshie and everyone else! Not yet albs. I've had to make a change of plan. My slipway track was due to be removed yesterday, I got a phone call late on in the day to say they couldn't do it until this morning. So it's another early start for yours truly this morning. Just for fun it's wet 'n windy too!

[waterboatman]

Welshie I reckon that cold needs a closer look.

[albaqwerty]

Morning Ven, x Throw a banana to Welshy, poor love is peckish.

Sweetcheeks, your tummy doesn't have a clock, grab some brekkie xx

[albaqwerty]

Morning Boaty xxxxxx Is it safe enough to do that in windy conditions?
It's forecast for 60-70mph, nasty.

[venator]

Here Welshie, have a banana... It won't cure anything, but wash it down with something warm. look after yourself.

[waterboatman]

I hope so labs. I'll make that decision when I get to the slipway at 8.30. It will be possible if it gets no worse for a while. It may have to wait until next week.

[WELSHYORKIE]

Funny you should mention bananas, sweetpea, i've just had one!!! Boaty, had a thorough check up at the docs on Wednesday - even to the point where he told me I had a heart with a good BP, an excellent 'at rest' pulse - live for many years to come (just the rest of me that's falling apart then, I said), but I need to lose some weight (about 50 lbs!!!). Nurse - pass me the salad bowl please!!

[emmie]

morning, grey and raining here, ugh.

[waterboatman]

Glad to hear that Welshie. You can make healthy eating enjoyable! :o}

Morning em. xxx

[waterboatman]

Welshie; Loving Memory is in the shed, out of harms way.

[albaqwerty]

Boaty will give you good ideas for salads, he's a dab hand. Whatever you do, do not take up jogging. That's just so wrong in so many ways. (imo) The onwards and downwards thread is inspiring and supportive.


Morning Em xx

[waterboatman]

You're right about the jogging albs. It does not help a lot, it can do more harm than good if you are not used to it. Healthy eating is not just salads, although I do enjoy them, pasta with 'Seeds of Change' Mediterranean vegetables is very tasty, easy to prepare and healthy! Another of my favourites.

[albaqwerty]

'Seeds of Change' sounds very nice. It's not just nuts though is it?
It also sounds summery but this weather is not conducive.....

Sweetcheeks, get your cheffy son on the case !! :-D

[waterboatman]

No albs. It's a trade name. Look on the pasta sauces shelf in the supermarkets. I use them a lot. All organic and no additives. Full of flavour. Don't use any salt when you cook the pasta. Fresh ground black pepper when it's drained. Wonderful!
