You don't have heating? That must be awful in this weather!

I'm watching shrek 3 now. About to put dinner in the oven.

chinahorse 12-02-2017 06:16 PM

The landlord has locked it away. It only.comes on twice a day.

Ooo what you having?

Sketchy 12-02-2017 06:17 PM

My last flat four years ago didn't have central heating, but I was ok with it. Now I'm freezing and that's with central heating. I must have aged dramatically in 4 years since I always feel cold.

I'm deciding what to watch. Just having a lazy evening, but plan to have an early night. I'm determined to get into a better routine.

chinahorse 12-02-2017 06:19 PM

Routine is always better lorraine. I'm trying to keep to it as best I can but I had to have a nap. I do feel better for it though.

I'm watching the last air bender on tv. It's a bit odd.

Sketchy 12-02-2017 06:21 PM

Sometimes you need a nap though. I'm glad you feel better for it.

Cacoethes 12-02-2017 06:23 PM

That's not good about the heating :/

I never used to get cold either Lorraine. I do now though!
Routine is good!

I've never seen that Lillie. I'm watching the third shrek now!

chinahorse 12-02-2017 06:29 PM

I'm pretty much always cold. Jealous of people who aren't.

Shredk is hilarious.

Sketchy 12-02-2017 06:36 PM

I used to be one of those people who never felt cold and loved winter. That's certainly changed. I can't wait for warmer weather.

I still don't know what to watch. Probably something on the channel 4 app or iplayer since I'm using my phone.

chinahorse 12-02-2017 06:38 PM

No suggestions on what to watch I'm afraid lorraine.

chinahorse 12-02-2017 06:55 PM

This film is getting more weird. It's a bit like the golden compass.

Cacoethes 12-02-2017 07:19 PM

I watched a bit of the golden compass but didn't really understand it at all!
I'm now watching 'absolutely anything' I remember wanting to watch it when it came out but never did. It's on Netflix now :)

chinahorse 12-02-2017 07:25 PM

Never heard of that beckie what's it about?

Cacoethes 12-02-2017 07:31 PM

A teacher (Simon Pegg) gets the ability from aliens to do absolutely anything he wants. The aliens want to decide whether or not to destroy earth based on whether Simon Pegg chooses to do good or evil.
So far he's just found out he can do anything and Is freaking out a bit!
The credits said that Robin Williams does the voice of the dog and Eddie Izzard is in there somewhere as well!
I'm enjoying it so far.

chinahorse 12-02-2017 07:56 PM

That sounds good.

Cacoethes 12-02-2017 08:41 PM

It was pretty good!

Coyote ugly is on TV. I haven't seen this film in years!

What's everyone up to tonight?

Sketchy 12-02-2017 09:24 PM

I'm watching comedy box sets on 4. Think I'll watch the it crowd or something. I'm determined to have an early night. I just ate a bit of chocolate from Christmas. I still have Christmas chocolates, including a large chocolate snow man and a bear. Feels weird to be eating these things in February now that creme eggs are out.

Cacoethes 12-02-2017 09:27 PM

Sounds good! I love the IT Crowd.
I can't believe you still have christmas chocolates! You must have gotten loads for Christmas!

Sketchy 12-02-2017 09:32 PM

I did get loads. But I've been hesitant to open some things because they look too nice to eat, like the big snow man. I just ate a chocolate Santa lolly.

Cacoethes 12-02-2017 09:43 PM

You have far more self control than I do!!
Hope you enjoyed it! :)

Sketchy 12-02-2017 09:48 PM

I did thanks. I'm going to eat healthy during the week, so I thing next weekend the chocolate bear is getting eaten. Poor bear. It's a Lindt one.

Cacoethes 12-02-2017 09:50 PM

Eating healthy is good :)
Oooo lindt is the best!

Sketchy 12-02-2017 09:56 PM

Lindt is good. I'm only allowing myself some chocolate at the weekends. I need to start eating healthier. Tomorrow I'm going to buy healthy food at the shops and go for a walk.

I've finally heated up. :)

Cacoethes 12-02-2017 10:02 PM

That sounds like a really good idea!
Healthy foods can be really delicious. I started eating healthier when I joined slimming world and there are some really nice recipes out there.

Glad you've warmed up :)

Sketchy 12-02-2017 10:08 PM

I may have to look up some recipes.

Cacoethes 12-02-2017 10:28 PM

I'm really hungry now!
Going to have some sunbites crisps. They're really nice and waay healthier than real crisps!

chinahorse 12-02-2017 10:30 PM

They are nice. What flavour you got?

I just had weetabix for dinner. Nomnom

Cacoethes 12-02-2017 10:40 PM

The sour cream and black pepper ones. They are my favourite!

Weetabix is awesome. I like to have breakfast foods for dinner sometimes! Especially porridge.

chinahorse 12-02-2017 10:41 PM

Sweet chilli are the best! But each to their own :P

Cacoethes 12-02-2017 10:45 PM

The sweet chilli ones are really nice too!
Might get some tomorrow actually, mix it up a bit (totally living life on the edge..) :p

chinahorse 13-02-2017 11:41 AM

Morning all! How are we all today?

Lol you do that beckie you rebel.

Cacoethes 13-02-2017 01:07 PM

Hi Lillie!
I'm good. Just had my washing picked up. Hope it gets done soon because I have run out of socks!
How are you?

chinahorse 13-02-2017 01:43 PM

Oh no running out of socks in this weather isn't a good thing at all!

I'm just procrastinating going out to get some bread and fresh stuff as I don't have anything in.

not_so_insig 13-02-2017 01:46 PM

Afternoon all.

chinahorse 13-02-2017 02:17 PM

Afternoon :) how're you?

Cacoethes 13-02-2017 03:00 PM

Hi Dawn!

You should go and get it over and done with Lillie!

I've just been to asda. Now home and changed back into my comfy clothes and watching Madagascar 2. I should really do some studying but I'm in the mindset of 'its half term, I have plenty of time!' And I will continue to do this until 2 days before class starts again, by which time I deem it too late :p

Sketchy 13-02-2017 03:21 PM

Hi everyone.

Beckie, you deserve to have a rest after all that hard work. You'll soon get back on track with your studying. In the meantime relax and enjoy your film.

I'm just getting ready to go for a walk. I need to go to the shops too, so I'll go to the further away ones and take a longer route so I get a good walk.

not_so_insig 13-02-2017 03:22 PM

I am feeling a bit paranoid Lillie. But otherwise ok.

I borrowed my dad's dab radio as I didn't know what stations I could get in my flat. My favourite station can be picked up via the dab as well as about 20 others including some I can't get on fm but are normally available on fm.

Sketchy 13-02-2017 03:24 PM

Sorry your feeling paranoid Dawn. I hope you can distract yourself from the thoughts. That's good you got a radio. I hope you get to listen to something good.

chinahorse 13-02-2017 03:27 PM

Hi lorraine :)

You can't tell me to stop procrastinating if you're doing it yourself beckie! Though you do deserve a break.

There's nothing on tv :(

Sketchy 13-02-2017 03:28 PM

Do you have DVDs you could watch instead Lillie?

not_so_insig 13-02-2017 03:28 PM

I will be ok as long as I don't see anyone today. I am hiding with the curtains closed. It's at night that I will be worse.

Cacoethes 13-02-2017 03:30 PM

Thanks Lorraine.

Haha! Good point Lillie! I'm being a bit of a hypocrite :p

not_so_insig 13-02-2017 03:30 PM

I know Lillie that there's nothing on. When I get bored of the radio I shall watch a recorded programme.

chinahorse 13-02-2017 03:31 PM

Most of my dvd are at the cassel.


All the best advice comes from hypocrites lol

Cacoethes 13-02-2017 04:02 PM

Have you got netflix?

Haha! True dat!

Sketchy 13-02-2017 05:09 PM

I'm having a tea break in a coffee shop whilst on my walk. Still to go to the shops and then tidy a bit at home and I've done all of today's tasks.

not_so_insig 13-02-2017 05:18 PM

Good luck Lorraine. I have watched gladiators and I have put my second load of washing on. I will probably watch the rest of gladiators at 9 pm when there's nothing on the telly.

Sketchy 13-02-2017 05:20 PM

That's good you got a washing done. I'll need to do that too.

chinahorse 13-02-2017 05:39 PM

Yay lorraine hope the rest of your walk was nice.

Well done on laundry dawn.

I had a nap and am watching tele again. There's nothing on the box though.

not_so_insig 13-02-2017 06:11 PM

I can't quite decide what to eat for tea. I have a beef Wellington to eat this week though. Might have a sausage sandwich.
