First of all - cheers for the comments on my last entry girls. It's funny how everyone picked up on the diet thing more than the 'THE NORTHERNER'S WIFE WANTS A DIVORCE' thing, which I found WAY more interesting, LOL.

As for the diet thing, as Noo knows, I did the Slimming World one with BD a few years ago and we both did really well on it - especially him. I wouldn't touch the Atkins with a barge pole - one of the ongoing areas of contention with me and Mark was that he periodically goes on it!

One of the other reasons that I want to lose weight (apart from the fact that I'm fat, and that doesn't tend to be a main focus of worry for me most of the time) is that the girl who's son's party we went to yesterday is having a hen night in May next year - and the suggestion that she has come out with is to all have a pole-dancing lesson as part of it.

There is NO way I am swinging my lard around whilst my mates watch me!!!! I know I have a tendency to pole dance in clubs anyway at times - but that is more 'dancing round a pole and hanging on a bit' rather than actual pole dancing!! Plus I am always dead pissed.....which helps :)

Oh yes - and just as a test - and this one is VERY easy - I have done a 'How well do you know me?' quiz, which you can go and do by clicking here.....it will be interesting to know just how well people DO know me, LOL!!
