Thanks for the new thread!

How did your time in Bath go?

I hope you like the Christmas pudding. Follow the instructions on how to heat it. If you don't eat it all it's best to re-heat it, it's a bit solid when cold! Eat it with custard or cream! Yum! I have a piece I bought for myself only, but I've not got around to eating it yet. Still it doesn't go off. When my mum made them she'd make three at once, and eat them each year.

I think I love Bath so much! it’s so “Romanesque”! It was my second time there so I just wanted to shop in the stores. I ended up not finding any clothes, but I got underwear at Marks & Spencer’s cause they keep saying it’s a good place to buy underwear

I also got some soap from the Bath shop and my mom and me went to the “Sally Lunn” house to have a famous Sally Lunn bun and some nice cauliflower soup I also got two comfy beanie hats since they were only 50 pence and they are so comfy, I was even wearing it indoors yesterday cause it was like a warm head hug

I have the Christmas pudding and I think I I’ll have to use the microwave for it! I’m looking forward to eating it too! Is it rich?

Oh yes, it is rich, in case you mean if it has many calories
My favorite is bread & butter pudding, did you try this?

It is rich I suppose, yes. I'm not a massive fan of bread and butter pudding myself.

I'm glad you liked Bath. I didn't get a lot of time there when I visited it.

I was in M & S yesterday, my husband bought myself some new clothes in there. I'm going back into town to collect photos this afternoon, so perhaps I'll look around myself.

Sandra, that sounds really good but not sure if I've had it. I've had bread pudding though and that's delicious stuff!

Did you find anything today, Claire?

I did, Leanne. I got a few things in the sale in M & S today. I bought a dress, a t-shirt, and some vest tops, and a really pretty top I liked.

I also went into Boots and got some make-up brushes for my daughter (she was so pleased she hugged me!) and a nail-trimming kit for my son. I also got an eye mask for me. I tend to use them when I'm away from home and mine had got a bit stretched, and useless.

It's been a very busy day! I got everything done, though, and I enjoyed shopping unusually for me.

I also played Minecraft with my kids earlier, as the new controllers arrived this morning, so we can all play together. It was great fun.

That's good to hear, Claire it's fun to have new clothes that look good! I was tempted by some leather gloves with a cashmere inner lining at M&S, but didn't get them.

Shopping for clothes only works when I'm in a particular mood for it or else everything doesn't look good on me or it's all too expensive.

I've never played Minecraft before! I know the kids at my work are all crazed over it!

I find it seriously addictive! It's fun to play computer games with the kids though.

I normally hate shopping for clothes, especially in sales, but I'm glad I did. I got a nice dress for a third of the price.

Well, I have to admit I was pretty happy about my new underwear I got at M&S.

I have to go buy some new jeans though as I got rid of an old pair of pants and some shirts on vacation. I always wear my clothes down til practically threadbare! Once I find something comfortable to wear I wear it so often!

Minecraft looks so blocky it kind of confuses me to even look at it, it looks like an 80's video game graphics.

Minecraft does look strange for sure!

I'm glad you're happy with your purchases.

It can feel sad to throw away your favourite clothes! I sometimes keep them for painting in, as I can't bear to throw them!

I can't seem to catch up no matter how much I read, or try. Just wanted to say hi, and start from here.

Kim!

That sounds a good move, Kim. Plus you know what we've been up to anyway.

Are you still in terrible pain? I'm so concerned about you.

I saw the personal trainer again this afternoon, and now my legs feel like jelly!

Good morning!!!

Hi Kim, I've missed you, glad to see you, I'm concerned about your well being too lately!!

Claire, yeah, I really wear out my stuff, I wore the same shoes for almost 8 years or something and when I threw them out, I noticed a hole in the rubber sole I never even noticed, no idea how long it was there!! This time I've got at least 4 pairs of shoes I can rotate on now and I plan to perhaps get more shoes so that doesn't happen again.

I find shoes never seem to last very long. I used to make them last a few years, but now I'm lucky if they last a few months. My trainers are doing very well though, but I did go to a specialist running shop for those...

Hope you're having a good day, Leanne.
