The pen is mightier than the sword.....(Harvester pt2)

Following my complaint to the parent company regarding our recent Harvester 'experience', I received an email this morning, apologising and telling me I should get a personal call from the manager of the offending branch within 7 days. I have to give credit where its due, I had a call this lunchtime, and further to the managers credit, he didn't try schmoozing, or making excuses for the inexcusable - I respect that.
The upshot is, we (all five of us) were invited back for a meal, courtesy of the manager/Harvester, by way of apology...and of course it would have been churlish of me to refuse LOL.

The sun is still shining down here on the sunshine coast, and I've been making the most of it while it lasts, so most things are being done outside! I think I even caught a few rays while I was cleaning the vacuum...which is not as daft as it sounds (even for me!) My upright Dyson gave up the ghost the other day, and Himself.com finally wrangled the small pull along one out of the barn - although I note the extension pipe and attachment are missing, so another expedition is called for! Anyway, it was covered in c-rap, so I gave it a good overhaul outside in the sunshine - which, coincidentally, allowed me to ignore the dust bunnies that are rolling menacingly across the floor in the house! It looks like the housework will have to wait another day, because the washable hepa filter takes 24hrs to dry. shame.

Being busy means I find less excuse to nibble that which I ought not be nibbling, so I managed to extend the period between breakfast and lunch by an hour.

Breakfast:
2 weetabix 2pts
1 banana 1.5pts
milk 0.5pts
Lunch:
Plain Bagel 2pts
philadelphia 2pts
smoked salmon 2pts
Dinner:
ww chicken and lemon risotto 5.5pts
(I am hoping this isn't as revolting as it looks on the box - time will tell)
snacks:
crumpet and marmite 1pt
half fat butter 0.5pts
panda liqorice (x3 oops) 4.5pts

predicted(and predictable):
Costa Skinny Latte 1.5pts

I shall try and be a bit more exciting with my food choices tomorrow

two days on the trot have seen me demolish 2ltrs of water, over and above my usual beverage consumption - now if only my bladder would get used to it, its playing havoc with my sleep patterns!

  1. I am still not used to all this blooming water consumption, 3 times I had to get up last night for the loo. Most annoying!

    Good news about the Harvester, hopefully your next meal will be better!
