Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Why? It's cold people need calories in the cold.

I actually lost 3lbs between Dec 1st and now. I think it is because we didn't do anything Christmassy until the 24th and it all finished on the 26th, it meant I drank sod all alcohol except crimbo day.

I intend to catch up. OH has finally finisher her shifts up, 3 weekends in December, and been back in everyday since the 27th, and has a whole 5 days off, WOAH! That's 3 WOAHs today.

What a WOAH day!

I have put back on all the weight I lost through stress in the summer, which was weight I was glad to lose. Plus I really eat too much sweet stuff. Perhaps I won't give it up, just moderate it a bit :)

Moderation, seriously is the answer, I just checked my weight going back to day 1 fetch 2009, I was 74kg, I'm now 71, so really holding steady for 9 years. I have said in olther places about activity, personal responisbility a bit of knowledge about food, and cooking yourself rather than buying.

Still that's all for another blog that is going to be called:-

nihil sine labore

Get me.

Last one eaten, alas.

Though if by chance I see a pack while shopping at the weekend, I may restock. Especially if only 10p.

From an article about Christmas traditions: "mince pies were things of horror to all good Puritans, who looked upon them as papistical devices of the enemy of mankind" ... "we fancy it is to their energetic denunciations of it that the mince pie owed its reputation as the sovereign dainty of the great festival, for of course the more one party railed against it, the more the other delighted in enjoying it".

papistical devices, excellent, I thought of Blackadder's Parsnip.
