I think I've got it! Thanks much Feeling

I think I've said this somewhere else but I always go into full editor, highlight the name and click on the tag icon just above. I can never remember how to do it the other way. Then to check if it worked I click on preview.
Easy peasy.

@coffeetime That's how I do it too. I didn't know that there was any other way!

I have spent most of the afternoon sorting out a seventeen page document, with lots of photos, which my son had put together. It probably would have been quicker to start again! I am now up to page eight!

Being one of the worst exercise-averse people in the world I have surprised myself by joining the 5:2 HIT club and just completed my second session! I don't think that I am taking it quite as seriously as some of the others. There seems to be a lot of scientific stuff which I can't make head nor tail of!

We ate at lunchtime today because my husband had forgotten to bake bread (it's only a bread machine, so not that amazing) I made a lovely salad for this evening but now I have finished my rowing session, I am not really very hungry. Perhaps later!

Popping in and missing some stuff, but I just had to mention Anglesey as a holiday destination. Its a wonderfully wild and breezy place with fantasic sandy beaches.
I used to live at a place that was converted into holiday apartments and never got tired of the views or the fresh air.

Within walking distance there is the Anglesey Sea Zoo (stroke a ray), the rocky beach (great for pool dipping) and a working farm. Plus there is a riding stables a gentle 15 minute coastal walk away. When you get tired of Anglesey you can go onto the mainland and visit the mountains around Snowdon or the castle at Caernarvon (which you can see from the cottages with binoculars). In the winter you could see the puffs of smoke going up Snowdon from the little train that does the journey every day. Drat, all this reminiscing and now I want to go back there.

Hairy Dieters do a tealoaf? Wheres my books?

Welcome to @denisemorley and your hubby this is the seniors hiding place. Sue x

Hi @denisemorley, there are plenty of (young) oldies here, welcome to the care-home.... erm I mean sanctuary!

yes, we're all thirty somethings at heart.
The wrapper may be getting older, but the contents are still the same!

Hi kids! Having a groovy cool day? Me too. Just saw a firecrest and two treecreepers, a dozen or so long tailed tits, nesting cormorants and herons.
Bit muddy now :0)

@Azureblue that sounds fab!
Today i saw the biggest fattest squirrel ive ever seen if my life...perched nonchalantly on my friend's back fence
Looked like he had dug up and eaten his whole winter supply of nuts

Just popping back in because I'm conscious that I have not visited for awhile & hope you are all thriving.
I have just spent a productive morning going through my winter wardrobe & stored summer clothes because we are trying to downsize & moving to a retirement village later this year. I seem to have an enormous amount of clothes in various sizes but was pleased to make quite a pile of clothes that are TOO BIG that will go to charity. I am pleased because I seem to be staying the same weight at the moment but have lost inches so I fit into more clothes.
I have also reverted to my natural hair colour that is now silver/iron grey so some colours just don't suit me anymore I am definitely winter in colouring so a blue cool based colour chart. It was certainly useful being colour coordinated a few years ago & makes going clothes shopping so much easier with being able to just walk past whole colour blocks of yellow/orange based colours that make me look ill!
I have also joined the scenic route tent where there are some useful links about why our bodies plateau & we have set points. It's very frustrating particularly as I was hoping to have quickly lost more weight after Christmas. But I am trying to really reduce carbs & for lunch I will again have ham & scrambled eggs instead of my usual bread & soup & am only semi fasting today, not 4:3ing this week.
Hope you are all doing well & managing to keep losing weight if you are not maintaining.

Gawd this rain rain rain is starting to get to me Aaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrggggggghhhhhhhhh

That's better :0)

Dry here today! Lots more promised for tomorrow though.
