    Any ideas? Holiday on south coast.

    We are going to Eastbourne for a week in a few days. I don't want to completely let go while I'm there, but I am on holiday. Any good places to eat that have a veggie menu (green days obviously) that won't lead me astray too much? I know it's a long shot but I am determined to keep any gain as...

    Tarrah a bit, bab and other local sayings

    Oh and the geordie accent is my favourite. A friend is a Newcastle lad but such a disappointment as he's a posh geordie. Too well spoken. His accent does nothing for me. What's the point of having a male friend who you can't lust over?! Sent from my Desire HD using MiniMins

    Tattoos - yes or no?

    A maybe from me. I have 2 small ones at the top of my arms and a bigger one going from shoulder to elbow on right upper arm. I haven't said no to getting more but I haven't had a tattoo in last 13 years so probably wont. Thing is, I've gone from pierced tattooed punk/rock chick to 1950s style...

    Slimming World is SO much better

    Oh definitely. You have to want to lose weight to actually succeed. If someone gets through the door because of a referral its entirely possible that they find some motivation to then do something about it. How many of us decided we had a weight problem and immediately, that day joined up? I...

    Slimming World is SO much better

    But that's just it, people often don't do it. If it encourages them to, it must be an improvement. Sent from my Desire HD using MiniMins

    Slimming World is SO much better

    I did ww for a few weeks and was starving! Maybe I was new and hadn't learnt the low point filling foods, but it was clear quite soon that it wasn't going to work for me. It's a shame because in some ways it fitted with my lifestyle better. For example I love pizza. Not smash pizza or wrap...
