Good Morning Everyone,

another Thursday upon us already which means we have a weekend fast approaching :-)

I'm now sat back at my desk and playing (proper) catch up on here - it's much easier at a computer than on my phone so please accept my apologies if I've missed anyone's posts over the past couple of days.

JillyGirl, I hope your move goes smoothly today and that you don't have any hiccups at all :-)

kizwiz, keep marching on ahead and you'll be fine :-)

Eithne, carry on getting excited towards reaching your quit date. Remember that planning is one of the keys to success :-)

Friezfriend, big positive hugs being sent your ways. I hope you are feeling much better today :-)

Lisa79, I hope all is going well for you today. You know where we are if you need us :-)

Pete, I'll catch you tonight probably - Unless you run too fast ha ha ;-)

Sin, I can't remember what you are up to today but I remember that you are busy :-)

mrssunnyside, Bore da! :D :D

Andi and Sue - big waves to you :-)

Everyone else, stay positive and you know where we are if you need us :-)

Hey Teddy08, lovely to have you join us. There are a few cat lovers on here so don't be shy in sharing a photo of Teddy if you like, or maybe have him as your avatar :D

10 weeks is brilliant, you've done ever so well :-) Let me know your exact quit date and I'll see that you are added to our Wall of Winners - the place where every quitter is a winner :D

I think it must be my turn to put the kettle on, any one for a brew? :-)

Hi Emjay and teddy, I was working today. Izzy bizzy. Passed quick tho. The quitters at work are still quitting. How's your cold is it better today Emjay?

Hi Emjay, sin and welcome to teddy (and everyone else).

Hope you're all coping well today - one day left this week then it's the weekend. :) Leave some of those stresses at work and get out to enjoy the fresh air helping clear those poor lungs of all the nasties that have been pumped into them for so long. :)

Yeah, I thought that was really funny and was thinking we could make up a group of us middle-aged people and call ourselves The Jogettes. :)

in reply to andi22

Yeah what are those things called, where you cycle, run and swim. Mind you I'm pretty rubbish at swimming. jog, pedal and paddle haha.

Yeah, she cooked a yummy dinner tonight - some pork steaks with an orange and onion sauce, sliced jacket potatoes and brussels sprouts. Hubby came home this evening - he works in London Mon to Thurs. They haven't exchanged on their hopeful new place yet and have gone out to the pub somewhere now. :)

He comes from there so just kept his clients and contacts, as well as his family.

in reply to andi22

I had pork steak tonight too cooked in herbs with steamed potatoes in their skins, cauliflower, carrots, a few spiced wedges and peas. Was like a flipping Christmas dinner, he does look after me my hubby.

Evening All :-)

I'm chillaxing tonight with my PJ's and comfort blanket on the couch :-)

Sin, I still have a stinking rotten head cold. I've been clock watching all day so that I can have my next round of paracetamol :-/

Pete, how the hell are you doing? It's been forever since we were online at the same time :D

Andi, you still aiming for your next PB? Are yo still doing anything with the C25K? :-)

andi22 in reply to EmJay

I hope you haven't got one of those dreadful baby-grow things that they're selling in the shops at the moment. :P I'm planning another Parkrun on Saturday but not planning on PBing again. I did want to run 4 miles before I went away but not sure I'm going to manage it now unless I do it on Monday. :)

What dreadfull baby-grow things :o

in reply to EmJay

Aww, they're not nice colds, especially when you're at work. Hope it soon goes.

Well Pete, you know you only have to 'holler if you need us. You've become your own best expert now and know what to do, but as I've already said - Give us a shout if you feel a struggle eh? We believe you can do this :-)

Andi, I wouldn't be a proper scouser without a onesie ha ha but I have to say that I'm not into the animal print :-/ You are so focussed with your exercise regime, I really do marvel at you. Do I remember rightly that you didn't used to do much exercise before stopping smoking?

monkyAdministrator34 Months Winner in reply to EmJay

I bet she didnt do none :P :D :D not even gardening :o

Emjay, I will definitely give you and the others a SHOUT, if I need it gal :) thank you for being there if I need you :) :)

Hey Emjay, am so sorry to hear you've got erm, man flu :o :D :D but I had a touch of flu a couple of Years ago, and found this stuff called '' Night Nurse '' I tell you it was great, cos I used to take it just before I went to bed, it used to knock me out :o :)

When you have a cold and you cant sleep at night, it makes you worse :( well, thats my thinking :o :|

I did almost as much exercise before I quit, just not running or yoga. AND I did gardening - that was in my previous garden which was lovely. This garden is a blank canvas but I just haven't got round to it yet. (Just think weather and holidays in the last 18 months! :o ) :D :D
