I wonder if Kristl will bring some of those "Gone to Seed" T-shirts. I bought one. 8)

 Lucky you..... wish I could be there. There cannot be many people with more 'seedy' experience than Kristl. 8)

I'd love to be there too.  Wonder if we can persuade her to come to a Discussion Weekend sometime?

That would be great..... and I think/hope Kristl would be open to such a suggestion.

That will be very hard to resist Maggi. By the way, following a "Sugar is Poison" programme on TV on Sunday (not called that, but that was the general message), I've decided to omit it from my diet so far as possible for a few weeks and see what happens. Lost 1 kg in less that 48 hrs! Yet I eat very little sugar as such, None on cereal, tea, coffee so no biscuits, cake, choc, deseeerts but it's impossible to avoid it in things like bread and most cereals to some extent. It's there in the fine print. I'm really hot on apples though at the moment.

Kristl has indicated she would indeed consider such an invitation...... Christine and I will be campaigning!

 Sounds terribly sensible , Lesley... but this concerns a four letter word that I vow never to use  :-X

Well I'm not using the word either Maggi, because if I don't get past day 2 or 3, Roger need never know about it. If I do, he won't notice anyway.

 Two more four letter words... good luck!  :-* :-*

Thanks Maggi. I'm not being too serious about it in case it all turns to custard - another word I shouldn't use, but any kilo gone is a good kilo, if you see what I mean. ::)
