I walk to and from work too. Much cheaper than the bus and quicker - takes me 30 mins for the 2.2 mile walk OR an hour and 15 waiting for the bus and the journey. I'll take the walk any day!
Well done and hope the weather stays clear for you! X

Yay! You had a toastie!! How was it? And ignore the scales... If you cant handle the fluctuating weights hop off :) I am a continual weigher but I don't let it gauge how I feel, the only weigh that matters is my Saturday morning one.
Carbonara again I see, send me some please!! Xx
