I'm going Saturday - paid for with mystery shopping money, so very MSE :TSuccessful women can still have their feet on the ground. They just wear better shoes. (Maud Van de Venne)Life begins at the end of your comfort zone (Neale Donald Walsch)0

I paid for mine with MSE too and have ordered my train tickets online too so saved a few pennies there.

Do you get any break in between ending your current post and starting the new one?
Either way, it sounds like you're powering on with all the DFW malarky. Dead jealous, but you deserve it as it's been pretty rubbish sounding for you of late.
Hope you're getting the sun - it was 33 Degrees here in London today and my pale Scottish skin isn't loving it :cool:0 -
I have friday off to go and see Take That then start new job on Monday. Been a nightmare though as they don't have a manager at all so I have been doing the job for the last week or so alongside my other job. My head is all over the place at the moment lol.
Been very hot here. Luckily I am dark skinned and dark haired so I just look like I have been away for two weeks :TProud to be dealing with my debts - DFW No: 712

Ditto - I am sooo hot!
I have been very virtuous today tho and spent most of the day cleaning the kitchen... binned 2 bin bags of food that was years out of date! :eek: Made a start on a 3rd bin bag tooI am also trying to sort out a crate or 2 of crockery to put on freecycle as we are overflowing with stuff...
My fat % is going down - was 44% at start of the week reached 39% today so really chuffed with that... Not really seeing the weight loss I'd like but I am hoping that is because I am building more muscle.
