GinRummy Posted May 3, 2020 Share Posted May 3, 2020 I’m fairly skilled in the art of doing **** all but even I’m struggling. A worrying development over the last few days is I’ve added an extra meal to my day. Breakfast, Dinner, sandwich and a wee cake and then my Tea. Added to the extra alcohol I’ve been drinking it’s not good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least you've got some kind of routine with your food. I'm just eating whatever whenever. There's no even enough room in the bin for my empty beer cans.

The silver one at 19.90 will do the trick I think. Only for drink cans though because food cans are sturdier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Internet Posted May 4, 2020 Share Posted May 4, 2020 Working from home during the week which is busy so I'm finding no real difference Monday to Friday (except not having to commute which is glorious tbh, will happily work from home long term). Weekends are starting to drag without football but managing to keep active for the most part. Wife and I have taken to playing board games.

Between the kids and keeping active ive not done half the stuff i want to do. This is me (although I am still "working" from home TBF). Folk say... "I could never retire, I wouldn't know what to do with all the extra time on my hands". There no enough hours in the day now! I check the time and wonder where the day has went! Flying in! Me & the family PJ usually sit down for our tea about 6 - 6:30pm ish. Finding its 8pm ish now. No idea where the time is going!

Dont tell folk that or all the "tards" will start going at that time (the folk who love to queue right round Tesco car park for ages to get in, maintain their social distancing OUTSIDE the store but when you get INSIDE theyre leaning over you and brushing past you. Absolute *****! & dont even get me started on the hard of thinking who quote from bloody Portobello to get into B & Q!

LeylandJambo Posted May 5, 2020 Share Posted May 5, 2020 Lost a stone and a half in 6 weeks due to not eating between meals. I always had food in the truck but now I'm at home I'm not scranning all sorts of crap between meals it's doing me quite well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
