Flora's Philosophy

Flora's spread is a useful tool for my ongoing memory loss! I thought if I can jot down my random ramblings, I can finally unravel the mystery goings on inside my head!! Plus if I can download those little thoughts that crop up now and again that are instantly forgotten the next day, then maybe I will stop cursing when I can't remember anything! Now what was my password again?? ...Bugger!!

Week 7 @ Fat Fighters

Week 7 of Fat Club:
  • 4 lbs loss
    (*Slimmer of the week certificate)
Total weight loss: 1st, 6lbs

Not bad after a particularly lazy weekend of being a couch potato (it was cold and rainy and I was engrossed in my box sets iof ER! Season 8 is just soooo good).

It was a nice surprise after a long day at an out of office client meeting, which then took me 3 hours to get home from. The M25 and M4 were horrendously bad thanks to tube strikes and England playing footie at Wembley (and the odd accident and stupid drivers).

One other thing that made me smile today (and feel a little bit old) is that my client meeting was at a military base down in Hampshire. One of the rules there is civilians get escorted to their destination on site by a young soldier on guard duty. The nice young chappy (who was from Bournemouth and is soon getting posted to Catterick) took me to where I wanted to go and then said "have a nice day marm". I've never been called "marm" in my life! I felt like the Queen! Though apparently if you address the Queen you say "ma'am" as in "jam" not "marm". Bit of useless trivia there.
