Hello everyone! Sorry I haven't been around recently - the thread has been busy!! Welcome all the newbies!
The good news is that I've got a new job - hurrah, hurrah and thrice hurrah! Have just signed the contract and posting it back today. It's not much more money but every litte helps. Have just got back from visiting my gran in Ireland - if you think it has been cold and wet here you should go there for a long weekend - brrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
So, what's everyone up to this weekend? I appear to have a busy one with lots of drinks and catching up with friends but I'm celebrating so it's all excusable!
Weight loss wise I've kind of fallen off the wagon. Have injured my leg so no circuits for a while but I'm seeing the guy who runs it on Monday for a (free) one on one session so I figure that will get me back on the straight and narrow again!
Big hugs - it's Friday - yay! xxxx

Hi Lula - thank you! It all got very stressful what with lying to my boss to go to interviews, trying to get all my work done and then I actually ended up with two offers and had to decide between them. It's all sorted now though and I'm just going to enjoy my notice period and not having to do very much work!
On the plus side, your weekend will be DFW and just think of all the good TV that's on Saturday night now! Plus on Sunday night there is a Peter Kay programme on E4 that is meant to be hilarious.
The one on one thing is a bit cringy but when he said it was free of charge I couldn't really say no! My doctor has told me I have to stop running which means I can't do circuits. I enjoy swimming and yoga but somehow they're not as satisfying as rampaging around the park and getting covered in mud! xxxx

Yay PF ..well done on the new job :beer: Thats great news and definataly worth celebrating!
I'm not upto much this weekend, off to the gym in the morning (3rd time this week..get me!) then was going to take DD for the cheapo offer (£2) at the cinema they have on a saturday afternoon but we were just talking earlier about tomorrow night and I said we could have a night in watchin a DVD. We'll just watch one we've already got or lend one. We'll prob watch it in bed or on the sofa with a quilt ...oh i'm looking forward to it already!!
Between now and wednesday i'm gonna be having some serious NSD's coz i've not hardly any moneyI kind of don't mind having them when I choose to, but having no choice is not good lol Shouldn't need anything anyways other than DD's school dinner money but they won't mind waiting till Wednesday for that, i'm sure they'll still feed her!!
I'm off to sleep at my mam's tonite because my clothes need drying for the gym in the morning and my Mam always has her heating on so they can dry, also her place is only round the corner from the gym so if I stand any chance atall of actually gettin there then I need to sleep closer lol You'd have to know me to believe how true that was!!!
I've still been laughin today bout the FMB's...i'm so thick lol I've actually got a pair and they're soooooo comfortable but coz i'm fat I only ever wear them under jeans, would never have them showing...maybe I should !! lol
Hope everyone has a nice weekend, suppose I should go pack, the old queen will think i'm staying for a week when she sees all my stuff lolInitial Debt July 2020 - £6,772.80

I have visions of your mams place covered in drying clothes Bowski, cant swing a cat in my mums place let alone dry any of my washing! I also need to borrow your comfortable pair of FMBs! I dusted mine off and wore with pride as per Lulas instructions, to realise after walking for about 15 minutes that I was in agony and now have 2 rather impressive blisters on the bottom of my feet :rotfl:
I may have been a victim of losing a bit of weight (or so I tell myself) as they are a bit too big now :rolleyes: probably would be peachy with a thick pair of socks but that sort of leads them away from the sexy image (especially if one wears ones Mickey Mouse socks!)
Anyway, my date last night was with the Scot, we've had a chat and we are going to try to work through the differences, so I am trying to be less insecure and he is trying to be less Chandler :rotfl:Had a very nice curry and bottle of red, then he had a good giggle at me all tipsy (as I dont drink much) and trying hard to walk to the bus without hurting my feet
Hope everyone is having a good weekend so far, and got more of a lay in then me :rolleyes:0 -

Good luck with the Scot Ossireo. From what you say, you sound compatible so give it your best try.
I'm off on a date today. To the local zoo. Never met the guy before (we met through plenty of fish) but he seems genuine and we have spoken a few times on the phone.
Anyway, I should be getting ready rather than posting on here, so I shall update you later!
