Dust

No this is not a post about cleaning.  Tonight Betty and I decided (actually she made me go) that we should try and do something about our weight and should go to a Slimming Club.  We received a leaflet through the door on Sunday about a local club and off we went.  As we looked through the door I said to Betty that doesn't look like a slimming club because there is food set out it looks like a party.  We did venture in and met the Leader she explained they were having a little party as the previous Leader was leaving.  We did all the form filling and she explained the eating plan.  All was well.  One of the girls on our table asked how many syns were in a Kebab with chips and garlic sauce 'oh dear exclaimed the Leader you sound like trouble' I am said the girl I usually have roast potatoes with that and a slice of pizza.  Betty and I were already sniggering in a school girl fashion.  I am a dreadful giggler in that when I start I can't stop and it gets beyond the giggle stage and goes on to the full blown roaring, snorting, tears falling down the cheeks stage.  I managed to contain myself - just.  Well the Old Leader said for everyone to help themselves to buffet.  Betty and I declined as we had had a rather large tea before we went.  After that it was the Joan has lost a pound clap, clap, clap, Annie has gained a stone (not really) speech type thing.  The Old Leader then asked if they had enjoyed their food and would any one like any recipes (we learned at this stage that members had brought the food in as sort of bring and share.  Someone asked who had made the chocolate cake and a lady declared  'oh I made that'.  Old Leader said was it a slimming recipe 'no she declared I did make a slimming cake but my mum tasted it and it wasn't very nice so I made another one'.  Oh said Old Leader looking a tadge concerned was there anything slimming about it 'no' she replied its just a normal chocolate cake.  Oh my Goodness the room was silent the Old Leader didn't know what to do.  She was stunned.  I started to giggle, Betty started to giggle, one lady from another table shouted 'sabotage' and another turned around and said 'you do know we will all be throwing up later don't you'.  The cake maker was not the least bit perturbed.  She just said 'I couldn't turn up with out anything - could I'. I was beside myself with laughter and actually I have not stopped laughing for about 2 hours.   Luckily no one seemed too cross really and all had a bit of a laugh.  One person confessed to having FOUR pieces.
