Slim Pickings

Let me illustrate a typical Todd family exchange for you. First a little background. The senior members of the team have acknowledged that we are carrying a little too much bulk around with us and have embarked on a programme referred to as "fat girl/boy slim". Or, as anyone else would call it, a diet. Part of this regime is a weekly weigh in which we’ve chosen to do on Tuesday mornings.

Last week, SWMBO had lost a kilogramme. To which I said "Well done dear, keep it up." This week, I’d lost a kilo and a half, to which she said "Get back on the scales and weigh yourself properly."

Where would I be without such love and support?
