Oooh Kyk a concert, even if it is G4.... I wanted to go see Eddie Izzard but the ticket line was engaged all morning and I got fed up after dialling for an hour!

Glad your cast's off Cat! Just think about all the turkish delight you'll be able to stock up on! No, WAIT, forget I said that! GO MENTAL in Primark instead!

Too Late Frus Turkish Delight is the first thing I thought of I wanted to go and see Def Leppard when they get here in August and they were sold out immediately too

Oh Turkish Delight yum yum!!!! Concert tickets are a pain, even G4 was almost a sell out!!! Poor dh did NOT want to go, and he ended up loving them, so there!!! Not my usual cup of tea, I must say......... I prefer my music a bit more edgy and independent, but sometimes a bit of commercial trash is nice. They have cancelled Manchester's Move festival, that was the highlight of my year last year. Pixies, Stereophonics, Keane, Goldfrapp, The Cure, very good it was too. And I got Nick Cave's Abbatoir Blues/Lyre of Orpheus for my birthday - so I am not a musical dead loss, I promise!!

The pixies were ever so fabulous live - I find they don't quite make sense on cd - I love their videos too. It was such a good festival, one of the few inner city ones where you didn't have to rough it. I am so disappointed that virgin aren't supporting it this year - sigh.

My hip is sore have walked in agony last two days. I feel like I'm 90. It has given me a diet kick though as I know it's because I'm back up to nearly my heaviest.

So sorry to hear about your hip. Hope it gets better soon
(I've been busy sulking all weekend because of my 1.5 gain).

All the diets mags say you should lose weight for yourself, I don,t think everybody works like that, when reading your posts if you sound down, I feel like saying ,"I'll come round there and not eat for you for a week if you like". I really think I would do it as well. It's just not eating for myself I have a problem with.
I think I might start thinking I'll not eat for so and so this week (change the person every week). Hope this makes sense as it is 4.30 and I should be asleep.

Carole

Hey Carole, you're not a million miles away from me, so if you want to come around and not eat for me, you're welcome anytime! Does that mean I get to eat what I want and lose the weight through you not eating? Sounds like a great idea to me (you know, you could be on to a money maker here - I'll be your agent - this time next year, we'll be millionaires)

I've been so strong today. I ignored bacon and sausage sandwiches at my breakfast meeting. Partly because I'd already put my cereal in my bag when I left for work because I'd forgotten about the meeting, but in earlier days I might have eaten both.

Then I got home and my sister was cooking sausages. I resisted them and ate stuffed peppers.

I'm feeling virtuous today!
