Well even though we had the threat of snow for the past few days nothing has materialised which is a shame as I love the snow :o) Actually started my christmas shopping yesterday which is great as less than a month to go - got some lovely things in Greenwich Market and included a walk through the park which was fab :o)
The view from the top of the hill in Greenwich park yesterday morning, nice and frosty! |

As you can see yesterday wasn't the best of days food wise but all within my points which is the main thing I guess. I'm now left with 29 weekly points to get me through to Wednesday's WI which should be fine although mother-in-law is with us from this afternoon for a few days and she does like to go out to eat (as she lives in Cyprus she likes to stock up on the food she can't get at home!) but should still be manageable :o)
