I fear its emptying the glass recycling that gives it all away. The amount of Gin I've 'sampled' is quite shocking (Hendricks is still the winner).

I made the fatal error of passing the odd bins on Abbeydale rd. where the staff are very nice and knowledgeable, I left with a case of assorted wine. Shamefully I had to return on Saturday to replace said case. Eating hasn't been 'too' bad yet but there's the Office party on Wedneday which starts at Midday and the curry house is booked in the late evening

More that any behaviour by Graeme/Joe should be used a a defence to excessive consumption - those 2 paragons of restraint and moderation

Make sure you bulk up in the intermediate days with a healty dose of pies...    none of those broccoli sandwiches this week...

Erm.. to the (thankfully?) uninitiated, what is the "Alderson Picalli defence."
Is that where Alderson blames Picalli at th same time as Picalli blaming Alderson?

Or is ignorance bliss in this case?

FAT club is so fucking lazy its not even got the willpower to make it to Week 2

[Sloper]

OK thursday last a fricasse of pheasant with peid de mouton mushrooms and a confit of pheasant, to drink a bot of nice burgundy.

Friday, scallops with smoked tomatoes and watercress with a nice white burgundy then grouse with roasted root veg and truffle and a haut bage liberal 2001.

Saturday, selection of smoked fish with salads and an interesting white from the south of france followed by consomme and then woodcock stuffed with foie grase and a very nice gevry chambertin, cheese and then some armagnac.

Sunday. roast saddle of venison with foie gras and mashed celeriac and a bot of Susterris.

Yesterday, steak rossini (using the last of the foe gras) and a 2004 Batilley which was a little young.

Tonight.  Confit of duck (home made) with rosti and some nice burgundy.

Throw in a bot of nice fizz, some cocktails, a few G&T, the odd beer, a bit of rum, scotch and port and there you have it.

And Friday will the epic

But I did pull some plastic today.

Pah! That would be typical OCD fit club behaviour.

[Norton Sharley]

FAT club is so fucking lazy its not even got the willpower to make it to Week 2

Or we've just met our objectives already?

I'm just now considering my tarting regime for the next few months aiming to peak with a fat trip to Font at Easter.

  I'm on it. Will look into flights etc and email Karl too. Dont think Rob has spare holiday.

[nai]

After my first post mid-binge weigh in this would appear to me the place for me, +3lbs in a matter of days which makes me half a stone heavier than my summer fighting weight.  Oh well, at least the year will go out on a high in one way 

Question is, do new years resolutions start after Saturday or do we wait until after the bank holiday?

[tomtom]

I'm sorry. My fat club report includes some fit club activities... though as on balance there is more fat than fit its going here...

Weight. 75.1kg. I'm not sure, but I think at my lightest a month or two ago I was 73.something.. so thats c.2kg or 5lb gain... Still seemed to be cranking well at the wall mind... Got some vege friends staying for New Year so time to purge my tract from its excessive protein content...

[Sloper]
