OH MY GOD don't tell me that!!!! I'm trying to curb my chocolate addiction! Hehe I've not sent off my application yet, but if I got it you'd have to show me all the best places

I've just made some regular brownies and rocky road brownies for my bf's last day on placement, I can't move through bowl lickage.. ugh!

Hi all

Okay I didn't post last week because of this damn hot weather we're having in the UK. It's making me so depressed. I know it sounds mad but I'm an autumn & winter girl, I HATE summer!!!!!

But I can say that last week and this week I've maintained my weight which is great because of the weather (summer really gets to me), I've been eating naughty things like mad. But this week I'm giving up bread and I'm going to try really hard to be a girl little dieter .

In the meantime I'm going to wish for rain, sleet and snow

wish me luck

You're not alone. I HATE the summer too.
Too much sun and heat, and I hate the beach because of the sand or burning pebbles, and the salt that gets all over me and irritates the hell out of me...
HATE.

I've been told I have 'ginger skin'! I'm really dark haired but I'm so pale and freckly, I LOVE the feel of the sun on my skin but unfortunately not as much as I hate the feeling of sun cream. Its bloomin boiling here!!!

[egerandi]

They make nice lotion (physical!) sunscreens - you really should be wearing one all year round, tsk tsk

But yeah, the heat gets to me sometimes, my favorite season is fall

[sewwies]

I've been sunscreening! Most of the time! I've been using a Garnier smooth and silky or something like that thats supposed to be non greasy but its still got that 'orrible feel to it

I like summer because you can just roll out of bed, into a sun dress and you're good to go, although I did get caught in a freak shower a couple of weeks ago, not fun! I thought I'd just brave the rain, being Welsh and weterproof and whatnot... unfortunately my white dress wasn't so waterproof and it wasn't until I was pretty much back at my car that I realised it had turned a new me-shade of white. I'd walked about a mile on a Saturday through Birmingham city centre with a see through dress. Not cool!!!!

Ho hum! Bring on the jumper-scarf-boots season!
