Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

One of the best things about working from home is you can eat whatever you like, where you like, whenever.

best and worse things!
But I also suffer when at work as (assuming things will be the same!) there is always product around and in vast amounts so easy to snack all day on biscuits
This is why I am thinking packing lunch and exercising at lunch when possible
I would rather stay at home mind

for those chopped veg people - do you do daily or store 2-3 days worth??
I'm thinking maybe chop and put in tuperware for a few days

plus a few boiled eggs (keep in shells I believe?)

You lot are awesome. I am too lazy to make a packed lunch. And buying a sandwich from different vendors is a lunch time pleasure for me, so it's part of what I like about being back in the office a few days per week! :-) G

I usually make up a big green salad with ham or tuna or eggs. Fruit and yoghurt is very easy too.

Sometimes I fancy a rice salad (microwave rice with whatever veg I've got in the fridge chopped into it).
Homemade coleslaw helps to make these a bit more interesting.

Hi, EvilPixie I was looking on the BBC website for something earlier and found this...

bbc.co.uk

It says... "Bored of the same old lunch? We've got lots of fresh, easy lunch ideas to mix things up. Try salads, soups, pasta and sandwiches to keep the hunger at bay." So I thought that'd be ideal for Pix. Didn't realise it was over a year since you started this thread on the forum so please ignore if it isn't relevant any more. Just thought you might find the link useful.
