Yay, where is Pat when you need him.

So it's for you, well next thing you know you'll be on a cycle and heading for the hills!

100 amazing that's some peace of determination and will power.

I trust that's low calorie - oh what the heck - I can save it for the weekend and have it as a treat, can't I?

I think my machine is behaving itself at last (touch wood), so I'm posting whilst lunching.

Only 24 pounds to go now - and I can shop, shop, shop!

So have seen anything you really like as yet?

Not much - but I haven't been looking at the moment. Mind you, there are some very nice fitted blouses with three quarter length sleeves in BHS which I've been coveting for a very long time. I got a couple to 'shrink into'(though one of them more or less fits now - and I wore it at a 'Kiddie concert' we did at the end of last month).

I'm looking forward to finding out what's 'in' when I'm at target and looking trendy for the first time ever...

BHS has some nice stuff in at the moment, you've got to make the most of it when you get there, it's going to be tough sticking with it. Get some nice pics taken too

Have you got anymore concerts coming up in the near future?

Oh yes - I've had a piccy taken already by my Mum, who grabbed her camera when I came downstairs in my (hastily bought 'cos nothing else fitted me) concert gear just before I was going out to play in one! She really wants one of me in my *really* posh stuff, which was bought for a major concert in July - but I haven't got round to dressing up in it yet for her to do it.

Both orchestras are in their 'down' season at the moment. The first one is likely to be in October for me, as there's one in September, but I'll be missing most of the rehearsals as I'll be in Kent - so I'm planning to give that one a miss. As it's in Milford Haven, I've got a nasty feeling it'll be 'pops' stuff, so I won't be missing anything, though I might go to the first rehearsal and give it a go, just in case there's something worth playing.

You'll have to post the pic on MSN Groups so invited can have a look at how smart you'll look in your Posh frock (complete with Viola of course). Ignore that if you feel it's a bad idea, We'll be posting a wedding pic of us at the end of Sept. So a few we've got to know here can put faces to .

Wish I could - but I can't join groups. Our firewalls at w*rk won't let me. The e-mail address at home is too inconvenient to use (for a range of very odd, technical reasons) and there's no nearby internet café I can go to either.

Never mind. I'll know what I look like - though I will have to keep looking into a mirror to remind myself, I think. My mum says she still can't believe she's slim!

I'm looking forward to that.

Oh well, it was just a thought, well we think you'll look wonderfull.

We'll post the wedding pics anyway and they'll be there if the oportunity arises for you to get a look.

Hope I can!

Felicitous greetings from...Two southcoast lovers

Hi everyone, didn't get down to the coast, we had to pack for Greece. Some how we just can't bring ourselves to regret it that much, once we got to thinking about the traffic to the coast and back, the overcrowded south coast beech's, and the lack of unspoilt stretches of southern coastline. So it's two weeks in a manse in the Mani for us.

Hey , have you ventured down to Margam Sands this summer? Or how about Rossilli on the Gower? One of our favourite places, the Gower.

I haven't had the chance to get anywhere much out and about recently - except for a concert we did in Tenby. I got the chance to go for a wander after tea and it was lovely. The sun was shining, it was warm, and the whole of the South Beach just looked utterly gorgeous with the tide quietly coming in. There were a few people playing beach rounders, some others playing frisbee. Superb.

And then we had to sit in a hot hall and play. I'd rather have stayed on the beach!

I haven't been to the Gower for a very long time - I remember visiting Rhosili when I was younger, and Oxwich bay, but I'm not a beach person really.

The closest I've come to a beach (apart from Tenby) this year was a visit to Kenfig Pools Nature Reserve, which is down on the dunes just down the coast from Port Talbot Steelworks. We were lucky enough to see two buzzards courting - they hurtled towards each other, flipped over, linked talons and then corkscrewed down through the sky. It was magical.

We weren't so lucky with the Great Crested Grebes, though. They were asleep, mostly.

Two weeks to go and I'll be in Kent! Yay! Holidays!

Hi,,,,
I first drove a car on pendine sands,couldn't touch the peddles at the time, love the coastline, in fact love wales, we keep meaning to go back, sigh, funny we was watching a pair of buzzards dancing in the sky at the weekend! there seem to more than ever this year, also the amount of snakes and lizzards we've seen this year is more?
Kent half my family come from Kent, spent a lot of time down there in the past when the summers were always hot with not a drop of rain throughout the summer holidays(take my specks off)oh look they're reddish! have a great time, enjoy!!

Ooh I will.

Can't wait to go - the days are passing so slow

Hmmm... there's a song in there probably.

After I took the glasses off, remembered that we sat on the beach in almost all weathers, remember one day, a really dense sea fog came in could hardly see your hand in front of your face,,,spookie,

have your tried the new skin yet?

Briefly - but I'm not sure I like it. I may give it a go for a longer run and see how it goes - but the jury is definitely still out.

I have to admit that, although I like the way it's structured (with conversations/journal et al at the top rather than at the bottom), the colours are a bit too 'in your face' for my liking . I'm still a goo fan, I think!
