Alternate Day Fasting - Before and After
I saved this, ahem, outfit just for these photos. Actually, the photo on the right is 'during' as I lost another 11lbs since then :)

About Me and Myself

My photo
Julie
I've reached the age now where I've got an opinion on just about everything and I don't mind sharing it. In fact everyone has the right to my opinion! I, ahem, look YEARS younger than my sister [I've just put this bit in for her benefit as she's bound to read it] who is 7 years younger than me - but I have been well preserved [alcohol] and I'm extremely idle. I've been known to make the odd card or two but recently got a tad bored with crafting. Considering how much this particular hobby has cost me so far I'd better get 'unbored' pretty damn quick! I have a penchant for using long words that just pop into my head, this is essential as I'm now losing small words at an exceedingly alarming rate ...

The Dummies Guide To Reading My Blog

I realise that most of my readers fall into two categories ... they're either technologically challenged or of a crumbly age ... or indeed both.

Therefore I decided to be kind - because I can be - and create a little guide, which I can add to if I think of anything new or if someone questions something.

I also realise that none of my crumblier readers venture anywhere near this informative side bit of the page, thus making this guide a complete waste of my time.
But I'm nothing if not dogged and I can always say ... 'well my Dummies Guide tells you how to do that!'

Hmm, maybe I should put it at the top instead of the side, we'll see.

1) If you see a photo you would like a closer view of then click on it, it will take you to another page with a bigger picture. If you click on the photo it will enlarge. I can remember one crumbly friend trying to squint at the 'Christmas Menu' because she didn't know this.

2) If you come across some different coloured - underlined - writing [usually a lurid green] and I'm referring to another bit of my blog, again click on the writing as it's a direct link to that post.

In fact, if your arrow turns into a hand, then it's a clickable link.

Here endeth the lesson.

The Easy Way To Lose Weight

Not to mention keeping the weight off ... If I can do it after being fat for 37 years, anyone can :)

Spelling

I despair of reading drivel on British forums, the 'text-speak' writing, and general lack of basic English is appalling. The most irritating I find is 'of' instead of 'have', it makes me shudder.

And for the half dozen or so of you searching for home bargins langly mill; buy a dictionary or install a spell checker to find out how to spell Langley and bargains!

UFO Sightings

If you see or take a photo of what you think is a UFO, then submit your sighting to http://www.uk-ufo.co.uk/

But you can check first at www.heavens-above.com for International Space Station, Iridium flares, radio satellites pass times (very, very busy up there) - On a clear night you should see something man made practically every hour. Using Stellarium you can find where the planets are (no or minimal twinkle) and stars, especially Sirius (twinkles all colours).
