Snacks: I was rather naughty as was VERY hungry by the time I got home from the cinema, so I munched down a bag of peanuts and raisons from tesco I think it was this one :http://www.tesco.com/groceries/product/details/?id=276377586 ..... No idea on syn value!!!

Supper: Is going to be 100g fat free fromage frais with 1 tsp sweetener topped with chopped Banana.
