Hello Ladies! Back from the hols and one year older. Fantastic time but certainly no JUDDDing I have to admit. Far too much beer and good food on a daily basis - my friends have a pub in their house so I didn't stand a chance! Just as well the USA makes rubbish chocolate!
I found it rather a challenge to order a 'small' anything from coffee to pizza and when I tried to get just one pancake for brekky, instead of the normal three, it nearly caused a diplomatic incident! However, my insistence on the correct use of cutlery (or silverware as they like to call it) slowed me down somewhat. I was determined to teach my US friends how to use a knife but to no avail - it completely surpasses them. A fork is all you need in the land of the brave and the home of the free! So I am pleased to report I am back and though I gained one year in age I have
only gained two pounds after 7 days of throwing caution (and everything else) to the wind. Sorry it's a gain at all but, oh my dears, it could have been SOOOOO much worse!

So now to start JUDDDing in earnest with a Christmas goal in mind.
Also I met a very nice ex-pat English helicopter pilot who seemed to spend a large part of my birthday in close proximity to and admiring my ample bosom! :giggle: There's life in this old dog yet! He may take a trip over here in April so I have about five months to get thin and gorgeous whilst also trying to also preserve aforementioned bosom! :mermaid:
I look forward to catching up with your diaries and hope you're all doing well.
P.S. I can't get rid of the damn pumpkins nnow - have tried deleting, uploading new pic but won't work - sorry stuck with it!
