well i'm back and didn't want to come home!
I have just spent the last week on a coach tour of southern Ireland. The weather was fine but overcast most of the time.
The highlight for me was a trip to Blarney Castle. No I didn't kiss the stone, there were too many americans queing for that privilage, and anyway I can already talk the hind legs off a donkey lol.
We have been all over Cork.Cobh. Kinsale, Cashel and a few others as well. The only disapointment is that Ireland has lost a lot of its charm,due to all the building work going on, there must be thousands of miles of new roads, shops, and hotels.
please have a look at the photos, the wishing steps are supposed to grant wishes to those who go up and down backwards with their eyes shut!. I will let you know if my wish comes true,as I did it.
I am rather pleased with myself in way as I have only put on 4lbs in weight , I thought it would be more as we've seem to have done nothing but eat and more so drink!!!

I have joined the lose 1lb a week to christmas challenge over on the diet and fitness boards and am looking forward to it. My whole sense of well being and trying to do the best for `me` that left me over the summer has returned.
I am now looking towards a fitter healthier happier me.
to this end i have promise myself a massage when i have lost half a stone, so i had better get off my butt and do some exercise - walking the dogs today gym tomorrow.
next week will be a problem though as i am on a coach trip to Ireland, where the `food`comes in a glass! oh well will just have to walk everywhere.

after a busy week, with not much exercise i decided to go to the gym this morning and boy do i feel better for it. do you ever get that feeling if you dont move you will burst with all the extra energy floating around your body?That was just how i have felt for the last couple of days.
Dont know if i have lost weight or inches as i havn`t been on the scales.I have read that people who lose weight say thay have much more energy well I didnt belive them up till now!
sunday lunch becons.

another week has gone by and have i lost any weight? no but i havnt put on any either horay.
I have had a horrible week , have been fed up and miserable with myself.pmt has a lot to answer for! as i told a friend yesterday i am going back to basics with what i eat. we have an allotment full of good wholesome food and do you know what i`v been doing putting it in a cupboard and saveing it for later! when later arrives its all gone rotton the cupboard smells and i feel like i`v wasted my time growing the stuff in the first place - so much for saving it for a rainy day.
guess what it is raining so this afternoon i am going to curl up with my knitting and watch a rom com.
next week will be an extra busy one for me so next weekend all i will want to do is sleep, thats a thought an afternoon nap. its either that or half an hours yoga to wake me up. will let you know which on won.lol.

just a quick update
I have had another busy weekend.I finished work at 2pm on saturday and went straight to the showfield, my mum and sister had a stall for the weekend. We were selling homemade cakes and preserves. Apart from 5 baby size jars we sold 150 jars of assorted jams and chutneys,the cakes had mostly gone by the time I arrived on Saturday afternoon.
The grand total was £463. Frances is now well over halfway to her target for her charity walk on the great wall of china.
got to go a training sesson awaits (walking the dogs as they didnt get a long one yesterday)
