[tomsk]

let's hope she doesn't forget her roots and become pompous..

[Icey]

I doubt she will, although huge amounts of money can do all sorts of things to people. I wish her well though.

[tomsk]

what would you do with all that dough?

[Icey]

What - with 90 mill? I don't know, seriously. I'd buy a few properties, or maybe get myself a little island somewhere so that I could go and chill with friends or family. What would you do with it?

[tomsk]

I would buy lots of sandwiches and cakes,pies at full price..

[Icey]

You could buy several of your own large bakeries for 90 mill!!

[tomsk]

absolutely ...
I love cakes!

[Icey]

I think we all do, but I have to be in the mood for them. I wouldn't want them every day.

[tomsk]

no,
at least once a week,
Battenburg is my current favourite..

[Icey]

I have spasms like that as well. Yes, Battenburg could be one of them, but atm I've gone onto some decadent ultra-juicy Eccles cakes. Oh my goodness, they're beautiful!!

[tomsk]

not had one of those in ages,
I've got some more Battenburg tonight...
If I'm not careful I'll be giving fatty arbuckle a run for his money...

[Icey]

Sorry to hear that, Fatty - um, I mean Tomski!! : )

Why worry? Don't obsess over what you eat. It can make a person sound very dull, like the women who constantly talk about diets and exercise. OK., good to be healthy, but they make for boring company.

[tomsk]

cheeky blighter...


I must be careful ,
I'd hate to be too fat..

[Icey]

I know what you mean, but being obsessed about weight, looks or anything else can detract from what a person REALLY has to offer.

[tomsk]

sure,
but obesity will affect your positive self esteem..

[Icey]

Not necessarily. If that happens, then the person wasn't very confident in the first place.

My very best friend, who was absolutely huge, had no problem with her self esteem, and because of her happy and outgoing nature, she attracted people everywhere. She was very intelligent, and she never let her weight (caused by medical issues) bother her. She could turn her back on rude comments and ignore the stares and laughter. She was forced to build up a tough skin, but it never once stopped her from enjoying life. She worked hard, partied hard, travelled and was married twice. She was also very amusing, talented and a delight to know.

[tomsk]

Oh Dear ,
she no longer here?

[Icey]

No, T. She died of a heart attack a few years ago. It was an accident waiting to happen, but even though she knew that, she never let it stand in her way of making the most of her life. She was fabulous.

[tomsk]

and she always will be,
we will meet again..

[Icey]

That's what she used to say as well .....
