Happy new year everyone.

It is of course the time of year again when we all start to question things, and make those dreaded 'Resolutions.'

Have you got any resolutions this year? Do you think you will keep them?

My resolutions:

1. Get fit for 2007

Well.. thats about it. Cool

I think I will make myself go to the gym more often. There's a fit gym instructor there who can definately make me sweat a bit Smile Maybe I'll bypass the gym and just pounce on him in the carpark.

Happy New Year everyone.

I've made three New Year's Resoloutions.

1. To give up sugar in my Tea ... I'm happy to report this one is going well so far. Tea without sugar is so uncilvilised!

2. To give up posting about Alex Lester.... That's gonna be tough: you know he's doing the KB show this week. Smile

3. To get back under 10 stone ......... not a tall order, just 7 pounds of Christmas Chocolate, to shift.

I have a feeling though :- come next December, I'll be saying, two out of three ain't bad...... Wink

I made one last year - to stop making New Year's Resolutions.... Smile

So far, it's worked. However, given Belinda's line above, I am sorely tempted to resolve to switch career to that of a gym instructor, although Natasha's odd foot fetish is also swaying me to resolve to take up podiatry.... Decisions, decisions.... Laughing Laughing Laughing

That's odd, there's a woman does that in our local Morrisons in a skirt with inappropriate underwear.. stops traffic that woman. The annoying part is knowing when she's going to be doing her shopping though... I'll get me coat. Shocked

I failed today. I gave in to an overpowering urge to nibble my bunions in the cheap electricals section - I was roughly manhandled by a security guard called, Walter. We intend to marry in the Spring Very Happy

I'm so sorry to tell you that I've not actually made it to the gym yet, and I'm in the process of selling my cross trainer on ebay. I'm not really bothered about the extra few pounds, they always seem to land on my bust, which isn't entirely a bad thing. Smile

Maybe Nat needs to get some foot scrub or something for all that dry skin, I'm sure she doesn't want cheesy-feet breath.

Ah, but you don't need a gym to keep fit, just plenty of willpower and a little spare time each day to do some exercise at home.... it seems to work for me and I think of all the money I've saved in gym memberships! Smile

Mind you, I'm not surprised you've made your trainer cross if you decided to join a gym but haven't done anything about it yet! Laughing

As for where the extra pounds end up, well, going by your photos so far, well, you look fit enough to me! Embarassed Embarassed Embarassed Very Happy

Santa, Can I suggest the following.

1 Stop watching old James Bond Films
2. Get out more
3. Start (or stop) thaking the tablets. I have it on good authority that dried frog pills might do the trick.

I don't think she'll mind, she died a couple of weeks ago, have to agree though she did look rather grumpy, several people did comment on it when they saw her. Laughing

Oh I'm sorry to hear that, I have a cat too, looks exactly like Felix on the cat food products! I took her in after being born wild along with some others on our Hotel car park.
Found them all homes but decided to keep this one. She must be at least 15 now.
I also have two enormous Newfoundland dogs so the cat has to tread very carefully around the house!! particularly at teatime.
I've vowed that these will be the last pets I have for the next few years at least to enable us to travel when we want.

I would agree about the old Bond films but I thought Casino Royale was very good indeed.
