Ok total dilemma
My dad has just told me as I am going to the gym every day and working really hard to get back in shape that he would very kindly pay for my gym membership for a 3 month period (so I dont waste it or decided to hot foot it back to the city). I think he is so happy to have me home and I am doing so much around the place as a thank you.
The gym rang and they were going to charge £180 for three months. I know this is not alot in comparission to city prices but remember Im in the middle of the country - think Whitnail and I.
Ok that works out at £60 a month. I spoke to my aunt who is a member with her hubby and they pay £90 a month between them working out at £45 each.
When I rang the gym/pool they said membership is £600 per year working out at £50 per month. I asked about student membership
Which is £400 per month which is £33.33 per month which is fantastic.
But if they are charging me £180 for three months and 12 months student is £400 thats a ridiculous difference.:eek:
If I can only find my student card. But I dont know if I can ask my dad for the other £200 and pay for the year and say Ill work it back.......... I knowthats really cheeky. But we have to be MSE about it.
There reason are they dont normally do a three month membership:mad:Thread softly becuase you thread on my dreams0 -

HI Kika
You are up late hon, hope you are ok or else you were enjoying a nice glass of wine:beer: . Em I am definately going to go for the student membership and pay by direct debit which is £33.33 a month which if I use it most days its like £1 a day which is fantastic. And my hair has never looked so styled the hairdryers in the gym are professional like in a salon and my hair look all full and styled. I never normally blow dy my hair to much hassle.
I counted my coin jar yesterday for the last four years and my mum gave me some of hers and I made £118 :j :j
Which will at least cover my phone bill.
Ok weighed myself this morning I am 10st and 10lbs:eek: Target weight 9st
So I have 1st 10lbs to go. Went swimming yesterday evening and I did 30 lenghts:T it did take me 78 hours but I managed to do it.
The company secretary is on holiday next week on Tuesday for two weeks so I have to work for her. So at least I will have an income for two weeks. And hopefully my dd's will be sorted. I have defaulted on three over the last year :eek: :eek: not good. But there was nothing I could do.
So feeling good not towake up with a hang over on a saturday morning weird but nice feeling. Have a more energy, which is lovely hated feeling like I needed a nap in the afternoon
Ok going to go make some brekki
