HiHi
I'm Jessica (otherwise known as Spangle ... cos they were my fave sweets when I was a child ). I was posting yesterday as "guest2", but have been persuaded by you lovely people to join properly.
A bit about me.
I'm married to Nick; we've been married 8 years, both been married before but only I have kids. My family are all grown up now and "doing their own thing"; twin girls aged 26 and then another daughter aged 24.
Nick and I live in Italy now; we moved 2 years ago to start a new, stress-free life. Sadly I had a nasty accident and broke both my legs which is howcome my fitness isn't what it used to be.
I look forward to "meeting" you all, and hopefully sorting myself out!

Hi Jessica
Welcome to PC2 ~ this lot on here are known in my office as the lifesavers! I guess I'm a bit selfish because I don't share the exact title of the forum with my colleagues (wouldn't be able to get things off my chest properly then!)
Ho hum ... I'm babbling again .... can't wait to hear more from you and glad that you've found the site. Your accident must've felt like it was never ending (hope you are now fully recovered).

PS Whatever happened to Spangles (loved them too - as well as Aztec's and ....) LOL x

Old English Spangles were my favourite......I think they brought Spangles back a few years ago, but not as I remember them

They always ruin sweets when they reinvent them. They did the same with sherbert pips, too
Definitely old fashioned spangles

Thank you Katie - had a bit of help from my friends
I love her because if you look closely she's trying to look at her - trouble is it's not big enough to see (I wish)!!!

You're beggining to worry me Dawn, I obviously didn't quite realise how obssessed you were about your bum.........I think you should come in for some therapy

Spent a lifetime being neurotic about being either too skinny or too fat ~ glad that now I can accept it for what it is (a way of holding all my innards together)!

Good for you
