So how do you raise money for it, Brendan? Do you just get donations or do you get people to sponsor you??

Both as far as Im aware. Im having a meeting with em after gym this arvo so Ill find out more. Im first emergency as someone pulled out. Ill let yiou know when I need YOUR money

Should be fun but tiring. Think the plan is to slowly jog as much as possible when you get the chance. Maybe 2k on 1k off??

Wonder if I can take a few spliffs with me?

Yeah we go through tonnes of fruit here.......but, it was good for the kids to see why I don't have cupboards full of crap, like Grandma :rolleyes: I'm sure they just thought I don't buy crap and the only thing to drink in this house is water and milk, because I'm mean :rolleyes: (even though I'VE tried to explain a gazillion times).

oh im not too strict - we have takeaway, and chips and snack bars for school, but i guess we offset it by being pretty active and eating a lot of fruit, and veges or salad every night with our tea - and i try to cook things healthy too.

jay and riley are already amazed at the way some adults can let themselves get to such an unhealthy state (and their kids too)

But as far as something to drink I don't buy anything but water and milk.

heh, done - i dont know if they have ever had a 'net buddies' partnership before

and liability no - but i cant guarantee i wont swear about you getting lost driving in some weird little backwater town, or not being able to speak the right language ... or me putting shit on the obligatory 'blond bimbo' team

someone at work did this last year. i sponsored them.

I'm also pretty sure Oxfam doesn't fund weapons trading like some other charities

I missed the beginning of that Jamie Oliver show. Did they go through exactly what you should be eating for each meal etc? I saw a packet of Special K on the table and I eat that for breakfast nearly every day. Did they say Special K is good or bad?

they go thru one of those giant tins of milo ever fortnight with milk!!! i dont know how they drink so much of it!

and water in their school bottles - or sugar free cordial if they ask, but mostly they like just the plain water

the only weakness is a can of softdrink with t if the cubes have been on special that week at the supermarket - and i have to fess up that one of my all time addictions is creaming soda ... ive gave up smoking, but im damned if i can give that stuff up - so i try not to have it in the house very much. When it is i'll even wake up in the middle of the night and go out and have a swig - i just cant resist it...

Bad.......that was the bit where they were talking about how much food has changed over the years and how so many of the foods we were taught to believe were healthy when we were growing up, ARE NOT any more....Special K was one of them....it's full of sugar.

FUCK! What did they recommend for breakfast then?

I'm okay with lunch and dinner....usually a healthy soup or salad sandwich (wholemeal) for lunch and lean meat and veges/salad for dinner. We eat brown rice and brown pasta and not much crap anymore. But breakfast is HARD!

I really wish I saw the first half now.

I don't think they recommended anything?? Just pointed out some bad things.

Where does your "healthy soup" come from?? That was another big point they made on the show....that even some of the things we buy, that we think should be healthy because the main ingredients seem healthy....quite often are not healthy, because so much salt is added.....then to mask the salty taste they then have to add a tonne of sugar :mad:

LMFAO!!!!

I'd say if they did recommend a healthy breaky (maybe they did and I've forgotten? ) it would have been whole grain toast and fruit and yoghurt.

Yeah I always struggle with brekky. Usually fruit salad,2 bananas and coffee but Im hungry 30 mins later. So between then and 1st lunch i munch on carrots Good slow release carbs!!!

Occasionally I throw in the odd Bacon egg roll. As my take away lady calls it..."one bacon egga rolla. foura dolla fifty"

Ive lost 2 kgs over the last few eeks during detox. First time my weigh has fluctuated more than a kg either way in 5 years. Fuck I gotta get some beer into me seriously

Crazy city. Choppers everywhere and the popage is arriving about 300 metres form my orrifice in a coupla hours. Just about to do my final distance check the assume sniper position

I use Celtic Sea Salt and refuse to use any 'commercial' brands. Its actually grey in colour coz all the minerals are still in it.

Yeah it's fucked!! :mad: I don't know how these companies, businesses, restaurants etc can get away with it?!

It really makes me glad that we live in a town where take away foods etc etc aren't available to us and we aren't faced with the temptation of the convenience.
Anything we eat has to be purchased and prepared by me, so I have a fair idea of whats going into our mouths.
Glenn living away, however, is a whole other problem :rolleyes: :(
