Quick ‘hello’. Welcome back Kazz.

Just three more sleeps before I’m back in my own bed, own home, own kitchen and able to eat my ‘own’ food again. It’s been wonderful to have such an extended holiday but food wise it’s been a disaster. In saying that I’m so looking forward to getting back into my healthy eating routine again. I just hate eating carbs!

Hope everyone is doing well. November is almost over so maybe soon time to start thinking about December???

Can’t believe this year is almost over. I’m not going to look back to January rather I’m going to focus on looking/moving forward from December onwards…. one day at a time!

Hi everyone,
Cathy it’s good to hear that your gum is healing and you are feeling a little better. Sorry to hear the consultant was so horrible though! You are right that a lot of us haven’t had the year we had hoped for and it’s definitely completely knocked me off track for the last 4 or 5 months so I very much doubt I will be at goal by the end of this year (yet again). I’m away this coming weekend at the Burghley Christmas fair and know I won’t be sticking to healthy eating whilst I am there, maybe once I’m back I will have a couple of healthier weeks but I’m not going to worry at the minute, I’m definitely lighter than I was at the start of the year so I guess that’s something. I hope everyone else is ok, as you say Cathy, it would be nice to hear from everyone before the end of the year.

Apologies for a lengthy absence from this thread … a little over two weeks of sun, relaxation and a bit of a tech detox in Tunisia to recharge the batteries after a difficult summer. Back now and looking at positives to report….
🌻🌻 being able to escape for a little winter sun before the festive season
🌻🌻 four rose bushes I ordered a couple of months ago, arrived the day before we got home, just need to get them planted up now
🌻🌻 only been home four days and already ticking things off the Christmas gift list

Hope you are able to find positives in your day … let us know about one or two of them please.

Hello everyone
I am feeling a bit better, my gum is healing and I’ve got an appt to discuss my treatment and to plan how am going to manage the gum going forward. The consultant at the Max Fax Unit was rude and very disparaging about my dentist last week when I attended for follow up. He said I should not have been referred to his service as he is a cancer specialist and I told him my dentist thought it was cancer. He told me that my dentist should have attended his lectures and then he would have known I had a periodontal abscess. As I left I said “I’m sorry for wasting your time”. He was so rude! I’ve been having problems since July with this gum! I’ve been in the most severe pain but things seem to be settling at last.
I’ve got some invigilating shifts in December and next week I am singing Monday and Tuesday in the Bridgewater Hall with my choir. As for losing weight- it’s not happening! I’m not even trying! Clothes are tight! I’ve bought bigger sizes! When I attended my MRI scan on Saturday I had to let them know my weight and I didn’t know because I’ve not weighed for months! I just guessed! I have enjoyed eating without feeling any guilt which has been a revelation. Ive enjoyed saying yes to things and not feeling bad about food. My years of dieting always steers me towards healthy options but being more flexible feels so liberating. The stress of trying to be slim has overwhelmed me this year and I’ve accepted myself more in the last three months. I am disappointed that I’ve not achieved anything weight wise this year- I tried and tried and failed and failed. I’ve had lots of ups and many downs but I’m doing ok. This year just wasn’t my year. Many of us haven’t had the year we hoped for but that’s life. I was convinced I would get to goal weight this year but hey ho! Well done to everyone who has lost weight, it’s hard to keep chipping away but when it begins to fall off it’s so exciting to see the new you emerging. There have been some big weight losses too! Well done.
I hope before we come to the end of the cruise we can all get together, if we have lost or gained we have sailed together for a whole year and it would be lovely to catch up before we disembark. 🚢 🌊

Decided to make a comment to bring this thread up over all the scammers who are posting. Admin, please do something about them.

My positives are:

started to lose weight again and definitely under the 74kg bete noir.
thrown out the DVD player but managed to find my favourite exercise on Ytube, Shaun T. Glad I can still keep up with him even with the asthma.
120 days to our next cruise, got to get Christmas over first with hopefully little or no damage to my weight. Not much chance of that.

Hi everyone, Kazz nice to see you back – tip of the week, share the cake or only take one really mindful bite of yours just to get the taste pleasure. We are dragging out our breadmaker this week to try it out before we put it up for sale, that means having lovely crusty bread in the house. Will hopefully get hubby to freeze half.

Hi Tulip1, it is not easy to get motivated to exercise when it is cold and miserable (yes, even here in France). I managed 2 sessions this week.

Lost another smidge and down to 73.5kgs. Will try not to be tempted by the bread.

Enjoy the rest of the weekend.

Hi all, I’m not feeling very chatty, but determined to carry on my weekly check-in! Thank you for all your good wishes.

Congrats SueBlue on the reboot. Your food diary looks delicious, and I am sure it helps to be less calorie focused and more quality focused.
Dawn I hope you have recovered from the stomach bug and can press on with op recovery!
DCT thanks for the good wishes. I am in Europe so two countries rather than continents to negotiate in all this sadness. That makes it a bit easier!

It is nearly six months now since my 25 May reboot, though the last month has been a bit patchy in terms of carbs. I am getting back on track. I see from my last post that I must be down 0.7 kg this week, since I have now lost a total of 16 kilos – though some of that has been on and off a few times! Keeping on keeping on. Good luck to everyone this week.

Welcome back Kazz 🙂

I’ve been not terrible (re healthy eating), but not perfect either……although I have lost a few pounds so the overall trend is going down a tiny bit….really, not enough consistency as yet tho!

Exercise-wise, I have been regularly putting in what is needed to increase fitness, so that is one positive.

Love to all xx

Hello, returning “oldie” here! Lovely to see a few names that I recognise, such as Sunshine-girl, Verano, Wendy1947 and Tulip1 to name a few. “Waves”. I think it must be about 5 years since I was last here. What a lot has happened since then…. I’m newly retired (5 months) and still battling on with my Achilles heal – white crusty bread! I am hoping by re-joining I can give myself the incentive I need to get back in control. Since retiring, I’ve got into a rather naughty but nice habit of taking mum and I out / shopping twice a week and we then have a nice coffee and cake or share a fish and cone of chips each week for lunch – I need to reign it in and become accountable again! It is good to be back and nice to see a few familiar faces! 🙂 I hope everyone is well?

Thank you for this thread and being able to post a tribute. I’ve not posted for a few years, but I wanted to say how grateful I am to have stumbled across Dr Michael’s BSD website back in 2017 when I was very low and quite desperate – searching for answers to my digestive issues…. he taught me so much and since then I have been on a marvellous journey, learning and educating myself.
However, utter disbelief and immense sadness when I first heard the news of his passing. He wasn’t afraid to try things out for himself – such as the tape worm! I’ll never forget that experiment! My thoughts are with his wife Claire and family who are carrying on with his legacy and that is just amazing! What an awesome man and family. Thank you, Michael and his Team, for all you have given us.

Gone down to 73.6kgs so that is progress. It takes me back to having lost 7lbs since September. Not the 14lbs I wanted but still 3.5 weeks left. Only one night out during that time.

Hope you are all doing okay. Feeling sad I seem to be here on my own most of the time.

Hi all, still dithering around 74kgs, Dont know why I worry about my weight so much as it is my BG that is more important, but the 2 can be connected.

Still trying to get down to 71kgs for Xmas but it is looking bleak.

Thanks Sue, I bet it was awful having it on holiday. The worst part for me was the agonising stomach cramps which were as bad as the worst kidney stone pain I’ve ever had. If my sister hadn’t had exactly the same I would have been concerned that something had gone wrong with my surgery! I’ve been out and about this morning for the first time since the operation, I let my husband drive as not sure I could do an emergency stop yet if needed but am hoping to be driving again by next week🤞Dawn XX

Oh Dawn how awful! I had Norovirus on holiday once about 10 years ago and it was up there with the worst I’ve ever felt illness wise 🙁
Take care and I hope you feel better soon x

Hi everyone,
I will catch up on posts later today. My recovery was going well until Friday when I started to feel quite poorly and think I may have had norovirus or something similar, my sister had it too. The stomach cramps were the worst I’ve ever had with a stomach bug and I had uncontrollable shivering and a migraine alongside it which may have been connected. It’s set me back a bit but I feel a lot better now. Hope everyone is having a good week. Dawn XX

Happy Monday all 🙂
In an effort to keep myself accountable, I thought I’d post about the last couple of days.
I’ve been focussing on gut-healthy foods in an effort to reduce the IBS symptoms I’m experiencing, rather than dieting as such. I’ve been recording foods in My Fitness Pal more so to keep a track of what I’m eating and to see which foods hello. Calories have averaged about 1000-1200 per day. It’s early days yet but I do feel slightly better, and as a bonus have lost 600g in the past 5 days – (most likely water weight, but hey a loss is a loss).
I’m enjoying getting back into cooking and preparing healthy meals – I forgot how cost effective this can be! As an example, I bought a whole chicken for $7 and followed the gut healthy broth recipe in the Clever guts diet book to make 3 litres of bone broth in my slow cooker. I removed the chicken once it was cooked. Since then I’ve had chicken salad, chicken and wholemeal pasta and a few servings of both chicken and veg soup, and just plain bone broth. I still have a couple of servings of soup in the fridge, and 6 cups of broth as well as a couple of portions of cooked chicken in the freezer! All this for under $10 🙂

For breakfast I’ve been having Greek yoghurt with berries and seeds, or chia pudding made with kefir. This morning I had some egg, Haloumi, mushroom and tomato.
For lunch I’ll have some more soup, and then dinner I was going to make up a bowl with some protein, small amount of cooked brown rice and some veggies.
I’m sticking to a financial budget this week as have had so many household and car expenses in the past month, but going to plan a weeks menu and go shopping at the end of the week.
DAWN – I hope you are continuing to recover well, also HEID I hope your husband is getting better.
YOWZER – Hope your are doing better too x
MARIET – Hope your holiday is going well, I must admit, in your shoes I’d be just enjoying myself and not worrying about diet, because for me it would be a once in a lifetime trip 🙂
CATHY and DCT – how is the reboot going for you?
And for everyone else I haven’t mentioned hope all is well in your world’s too 🙂

xxxxx

Heidi I am so very sorry to hear the sad news about your father. Sending you lots of love and hope you are ok. Also hope your husband’s surgery went well. Busy and stressful times for you, especially with responsibilities on two different continents. Take care of yourself – we’re all thinking of you xx

Mariet hope you have a fabulous trip despite the weather!

Hope everyone else is doing ok xx

Heidi – thinking of you and sending love at this difficult time. Wishing your husband a speedy recovery from his surgery.

Heidi I’m so sorry to hear about the loss of your father, take care x

Heidi, sorry to hear about your father and best wishes for your husband’s recovery after surgery.
We arrived in Dublin last night, in slashing rain and wind and a temperature about 9C, after leaving Sydney at 31C. It woke us up I can tell you, after a 30 hour journey! Now sitting in a pub with a glass of Prosecco and reminding myself that holidays are fleeting but the weight can remain for months!

Thanks for the shout out, DCT. And good to see the thread buzzing with news. Very pleased to hear that operations have been successful, a new job about to start, and wishing a happy holiday to Mariet.

Since my last check in here on 25 October, my husband has had surgery and my father has died. I spent the last few days with him last weekend and head back to the UK tomorrow. Speaking selfishly, it has been difficult to keep on track with sadness, stress and travel, but I am doing reasonably OK. Just 0.1 kilo is back. So 15.3 kilos off since end May. I shall keep on keeping on. As Cathy says, there is still time to make a difference this year, Best wishes to you all. xx

When it comes to tarot readings, many people wonder how to interpret the High Priestess yes or no. This card is deeply connected to intuition, hidden truths, and inner guidance. In most cases, the High Priestess gives a “maybe” or “wait” type of answer rather than a clear yes or no. It suggests trusting your inner voice and allowing things to unfold naturally. If you’re seeking clarity, this card invites you to look deeper within before making a decision. Feel free to share your experiences of getting the High Priestess yes or no in your readings!

Hello everyone & I have just weighed & have gained 0.5 lbs & looking back half a pound is all that I have lost since 1st October! It’s very frustrating & with my husbands birthday tomorrow & a family gathering with the extra wine nibbles food & cake on offer I am sure to gain more weight. Next Wednesday it’s my birthday & we will go out to dinner next Friday but I will try to do better the week after next 🤞🤞I keep on trying but am finding it difficult to get back to eating low carb with the temptation this week of some excellent seeded wholemeal sour dough bread! To cap it all my husband lost two pounds this last week after eating much more than me but good for him of course & rather demoralising for me 🤔
Oh well the weeks running up to Christmas & then the new year is going to be very challenging diet wise & I suppose it’s just trying to monitor eating on a daily basis!
Keep on going everyone all we can do is try to do our best to look after ourselves 🤞🍀🍀
Margaret xx

thank you for the welcome back lovelies- I am really very on off…I think mostly due to ongoing stresses and other people to sort out…..I am just finding it hard to prioritise my own healthy eating…I must though!! Love to all xxx

Hello.
Just wanted to pop by. I obviously haven’t been sticking to any sort of plan lately! Anyway, we leave the ship on Monday for 10 days in a hotel where food will be far more ‘controllable’ …. hopefully!
Sorry to see the November thread is so quiet but I’m guessing that’s because everyone is so busy sorting out recipes and making food plans for the winter?? Hibernating can be healthy !
Hope everyone is well.

Reported

I’m glad your surgery went well Dawn, hope your recovery going well also and your back to full fitness soon 🙂

Sorry to hear you are still facing issues with your gum Cathy, I hope you are able
to get some answers at your hospital appointment.

I have still been yo-yoing up and down, to say I’m disappointed how this year has gone is a huge understatement. Sadly I’m still dealing with some upsetting family situations which is not helping. BUT on a positive note, I weigh the same as I did this time last year, so havent gained anything (downside is I was overweight last year also, so in effect have made no progress at all!).

I have been making an effort to cook more at home, and to focus on eating healthy foods. All the stress I’ve been experiencing lately has aggravated my IBS and I’ve been getting really bad tummy pain/cramping. I dug out my Clever Guts Diet Book today, and going to try some of those recipes (like Bone Broth) in an attempt to settle it all down. Have also bought Kefir and Greek Yoghurt. So I want to focus on feeling better first and then on losing weight. As Cathy said, there are still 7 weeks until the end of the year, so I may be able to end the year less than what I stated it at, if nothing else!

As for ‘time to come alive in 2025’, I really did believe this at the end of last year, I had so much positivity, but sadly it hasn’t turned out to be a good year after all (and I know I’m not alone here as many of us on here have had lots of ups and downs this year.)

Hope everyone is having a good week x

You always need to work hard and even harder for small things to gain!

Great news Dawn. Here’s to a speedy recovery.
7 weeks can make a difference and today is day 2 of my final reset for 2025.
DCT – lovely to hear how you are enjoying life with friends and taking care of yourself when you can. Going swimming and walking your dog. Do what you can and be as healthy as you can. I read some words recently by Donna Ashworth called The Shape of you. It resonated with me. It’s about body image, self acceptance and personal growth. Made me really think hard about how much pain I’ve put my body through to fit with the trend whilst forgetting to feed my soul.
Here’s to the next few weeks as we come to the end of our years cruise. I am going to reflect on the year when it comes to a close and see what I have learned. I had so many expectations and was convinced this would be the year! Going to try hard to undo the damage since my holiday. Back to the hospital next week for my gum problem which still isn’t resolved. No pain but not healed up yet. Trying to stay positive and really hoping I can use the next few weeks to my advantage.
Have a good week everyone x

Hi there, how is everyone getting on.

Today is a public holiday in France for Armistice Day. The French are very big on commemorating war dates like VE, DDay etc. Just means it is quiet and no post. Some supermarkets are open but thats about it.

Thanks DCT, I’m in no pain today, just a little discomfort which is no worse than the discomfort I’ve been in for the last four months or so. I’ve taken some paracetamol to keep on top of it but probably didn’t really need to, I’m amazed at how quickly the pain has gone as it was pretty bad yesterday. I’ve had more bone broth this morning and will try some mashed vegetables later today and maybe some scrambled egg. My hubby is going to make some blended soups in the soup maker which I will try too. I will try more solid food over the next few days. The NHS information I was given just says to eat a ‘light diet’ for a few days and that there were no dietary restrictions. I’m instead following information I’ve gathered from books and the internet and reintroducing food in a gentler manner as I want my recovery to go as well as possible.
I’m sorry to hear your re-set isn’t going as well as you had hoped but the fact you are attending the gym regularly is a massive positive and I’m sure you will adjust to a healthy eating plan again with your new routine.
Cathy it’s great to hear your positive news. I hope everyone else is doing well, I’m sure I won’t be at maintenance stage at the end of this trip but will hopefully be there not too far into the new year as know if I can get back to a healthy eating plan it can make a big difference over the next seven weeks. Dawn X

DAWN I’m so glad you had your surgery and that it went well. I hope that the pain will soon wear off and that you find healthy food that you can eat. Get plenty of rest, and keep us posted!

CATHY I was really pleased to hear that your gum is finally healing up, and that you are able to get to choir and attend the induction for your new job. Things are really looking up for you after such a terrible time, and I’m sure you will soon get back in the groove of a healthier lifestyle. Thanks for asking about my reset : I’m embarrassed to say it’s not going that well. I have good days when I feel motivated and do all the right things. But then other days I just go completely off piste. I think part of it is adjusting to not being at work any more. When at home I tend to eat three meals a day instead of my previous two, and I’m also going out a lot which always seems to involve eating and drinking. Being really honest, in one way I don’t care, because I’m enjoying life and managing to carve out some “me-time” after working for so long. But as the scales creep up – and particularly when I catch sight of myself side on in a mirror – I just want to weep! So I will persevere, but definitely need a huge dose of willpower to keep on track 🙀. The good news is that I am now in a groove with the posh gym, so at least I am swimming regularly, doing yoga classes, as well as also walking the dog every day. So I’m hoping that is some first line of defence!

How is everyone else doing? ARCTICFOX I hope you are continuing to recover well from your surgery. YOWZER are you feeling any better? SUEBLUE I hope your reset is more successful than mine! MARIET I hope you are still maintaining well. Not long till your trip now! HEIDI how are things with you and your family? Thinking of you x

Hello to anyone else reading this too. And a particular shout out to our lovely NOKIE! Where are you? Be lovely to hear from you.

Hope everyone has a positive week xx

Thanks everyone, all went well with the surgery, I was first of the day and was home by 3. There is quite a bit of pain which I know is to be expected. I’m taking morphine the hospital gave me to bring home and paracetamol. The nursing staff were lovely and very attentive. I’m pleased I have been reading up on recommended diet after gallbladder removal over the last few months though as was given a pile of toast and biscuits in recovery. I hd a tiny nibble of toast but couldn’t manage any more as felt nauseous because of the pain and it’s probably just as well really. I’ve had a couple of small cups of Freja bone broth since getting home and have been sipping water. Sorry if I’ve missed mistakes in this post, the morphine may have an effect on my typing! Dawn X

Dawn, just wanted to pop in to wish you all the best for your surgery. I hope your recovery is swift as well. Good luck!

Dawn- wishing you well for your planned surgery tomorrow. I hope everything goes well and you will soon be feeling much better.
I’ve just come home from a weekend away to Buxton with my book club. We had a fab weekend of laughter. Back to basics tomorrow for me. One of the book clubbers is taking Mounjaro and looking fab after losing 3 stone. Taken her 8 months. My gum is healing slowly . Back for a check up in two weeks. Been a long haul! Feeling better. It’s been a year of ups and downs. Feeling motivated to a healthier lifestyle over the next few weeks. Am not weighing myself- had enough of scales!
Am attending my invigilator training next week. Choir is going well.
DCT & SueBlue how are you both doing with your reset?
Yowser- how are you doing? I hope you’re feeling better.
Thinking of everyone. Have a good week.

DAWN – Just wanted to wish you all the best for your surgery tomorrow x

Hi everyone,
Just catching up with posts, have been away in the Yorkshire Dales for a week and had a lovely relaxing time. Thanks DCT, I’m keeping everything crossed that my surgery goes ahead tomorrow and that they’re able to perform keyhole as planned. I hope everyone has a good week. Dawn X

Oh excellent S-G it’s so pleasing to be able to wear a smaller size 👏👏😀
I am feeling frustrated because I thought I had done well this week with two fasts & more exercise but I weighed this morning & I have gained 0.4lbs! I know it isn’t much weight but I was expecting to have lost 2 lbs😕
Oh well I will keep recoding what I am eating & try & do better next week. I continue with TRE because I don’t eat breakfast & I will try to short mat bowl on Monday.
Keep going everyone 👍
Margaret xx

Hi all, Good for you Margaret, you put me to shame with your recently operated knee. I just cant seem to be bothered even after getting my yoga mat out of storage.

My 7lb loss has dropped back to 6lbs after quiz night (we came second) but I am now determined to stick to it, even refused a glass of wine last night.

My new dress has arrived and I am pleased to say it fits, even though I ordered a size smaller. Could still do with a few pounds off for the back bulge but, another good thing is it doesnt need taking up.

Keep on…..

Hello everyone. It’s been a while since I posted . . .. I felt sure that I’d posted since then but if I did (and I’m now questioning myself!!) it seems to have disappeared.

Anyway, how is everyone? ARCTICFOX lovely to hear from you and I’m glad the surgery has gone well. I know what you mean about painkillers affecting your judgement about what you can and can’t do, but you sound very brave managing without. Take things easy and well done for getting back on track food-wise as well.

DAWN not long to your surgery now, and hope that all goes well too. CATHY how are you doing? I hope that you are feeling much better now, and also that you’ve been able to start your job and get to choir .

HEIDI I’m thinking of you in your family situation. You have so much going on yet have done so well with your loss this year. Very well done, and I hope you are ok in the midst of everything.

MARIET you have done really well too, and with your determination I’m sure you’ll be able to maintain your loss. Almost time for your trip and I hope you have a wonderful time. I can’t remember if you originate from the UK, or have visited before, but it’ll be nice to be on the same continent for a few days!

SUE it sounds like we’re both doing a bit of a restart in terms of eating and exercise. Let’s hope we both see some good results by the end of the year. I’m literally up and down at the moment – lose a couple of pounds then back they come again! But I will keep at it and report back in due course . .

Hope everyone has a good week X

Well I am feeling quite pleased with myself because yesterday I managed twenty minutes Jane Fonda dvd exercises & two fast days yesterday & today plus 4200 steps so far today walking to things in the village. My knee still hurts but is slowly beginning to become more usable 😀
Bravo S-G losing 7lbs in weight 👏👏
Welcome MTNGRL125 & welcome back Clare & we all need to stick with it now with Christmas & all the tempting treats around now 🫣🤔
Margaret xx

Hi everyone, just a quick check-in. My surgery went well, although the recovery has been rather painful. I was on painkillers to begin with but they took all the pain away and I would end up doing too much, so I came off them so I could properly judge what my limits were. Things have been going better since then and the pain is lessening each day. I saw the surgeon on Thurs and he thinks everything is healing well, but the pathology results were not back yet, so I have to book another appointment for when they come back, but he is not worried as it looked like a standard lipoma. I forgot to ask him if he weighed it so I could report a fat loss for that week! I don’t think it would have been much more than 1/2 a lb though. I was doing pretty well with eating the first week as I had meals planned and things put away in the freezer. I have fallen off a bit again this week though as things in the fridge and freezer have been thinning out, so need to get back on track there. Just haven’t felt much like cooking again yet. I made a broccoli and lentil tray bake last night that was pretty good and quick, so will have to do more things like that. I still have a couple of portions of squash and lentil curry left in the freezer and some Asian veggies and soy-free tofu that I could make a quick stirfry with. One of the things I discovered just before the surgery is plant-based eggs made from mung beans. I have just tried the pre-cooked ones so far that you can heat in the microwave or a frying pan, but there are apparently liquid ones too that you can use to make quiches or omelets. So I will have to try to find them as I have really been missing the ability to use up leftover veg that way.
Anyway, hope everyone is doing well. Will catch up on the posts over the coming days.

Hi Tulip, nice to have you back with us. We all know how good it feels when we are healthier, it impacts on so many other areas of our lives like confidence, how we look, how we feel, knowing we are in control of our lives. Keep on….

I am deeply saddened by the news of Dr. Michael Mosley’s passing. Thank you for sharing this beautiful tribute. It’s clear that he touched countless lives with his expertise, compassion, and unwavering dedication to improving health and wellness. Beyond his professional achievements, Dr. Mosley’s kindness and generosity will be fondly remembered. His innovative spirit and genuine concern for others stand as a testament to how one individual can truly make a positive impact in the world. My heartfelt condolences go out to his family, friends, and colleagues. He will be profoundly missed, but his legacy will continue to inspire us for years to come. May he rest in peace.
His unwavering commitment to excellence and his innovative approach to science and health have left an indelible mark on the lives of many.

well…..I have restarted the healthy eating again and more exercise….need to keep focussed…I know I feel hugely healthier when I stick to it, apart from the benefits of weight loss… fingers crossed for steady losses.

Hope all ok- Clare. 🙂

That worked but I am trying to reprint the words we said about Michael when he sadly left us.

Put it back to notes about Dr Mosley.
