Morning All

Guess what? It's Sunny again.

Clearly we are being compensated for the rigours of lock-down.
I received one of those BT SMS to speech calls just now. The new parts for the other broken trike will be here today.

No paper for her because she is going to the butchers anyway and will get it herself.
Coffee is made and the day has begun. Have a good one, everybody.

I hope there is no bad news wrapped up in the lack of the weekly weight loss reports.

I made the doors 16 years ago out of scaffold planks and floor boards. I am doing that again as 16 years is plenty lol

I would just like to say, this appeals. Not sure I'd ever be able to fully relax on the chesterfield though.

You must have missed one.

The weight has been yo-yo-ing up and down just under the 13St mark.
But this Thursday was 12-8-6.
This morning was 12-9-2 (that's 12 ounces!!!! go figure, wifey says its just fluctuations in hydration).
Rate of loss has fallen dramatically but I am still losing a little each week.

Well done! I must have missed out on the latest updates and began to wonder why they weren't there.
