So knight in Shinning Armour and I had an idea...
Instead of Catching the bus in to town substitute the bus for walking, but leave at dawn so you can get your photo, then while walking to town you will lose the 5 kilos, which will give you time to write the poem. On your walk back, (at dusk) take your other photo, when you get home tell adoring husband you love him and he will give you a foot rub, as your feet will be killing you from the walk, and as a thank you cook him dinner for 2..
also when you read on the hammock make it a book on frogs..
I can not think of you giving up icecream for 6 months, nor having a technology free day..
(what does technology consist of though, camera, tv, computer, microwave, phone, KETTLE..
does this mean you will not have anything made by technology as well???
intrigued.
Also i'm unsure if you can remember to POST the letters you have written to Nellie
Thank you both for making my list infinitely more manageable! Adoring Husband also questioned the technology-free day lol and remembering to post the letters to Nellie, will, without any doubt, be my biggest challenge!!
You gave me a good giggle :o)
PS There is only one 'n' in 'shining'! (I know! Typical!)
