  • I'm sat here on the edge of my seat (bed?), waiting for the phone to ring and the garage to tell me if my car's passed the MOT or not. Keep your fingers crossed for me, will you?

    Welcome Score, glad you came along!

    Good Luck Kayleigh, I'm sure things will be fine!

    I used to have a manual treadmill many years ago, before I had DH and the kids, and I used to love running on that, with me music on. I've been really wanting a new one, and I think DH would agree. It's just knowing which one really. There's such a huge range of prices :confused:


    any tready i've looked at seems to be too feeble for my considerable weight to run on... i don't have much joy with treadmills, i went on monday night to gym with the intention of doing 3 miles but never got near it...

    i need the fresh air generated by running outside to stop me from overheating too much!

    Snags - i must say, you looked decidely unsweaty on sunday morning, i was sweaty as hell and red as a beetroot, even supersammy was a bit red and sweaty, whereas you looked exactly the same! your hair wasn't even sweaty or anything! and it wasn't even tied back, it still looked great!!!

    jealous much, moi?

    That sounds lovely! I always think its much more romantic having a meal at home anyway, you can still get all dressed up :)

    Hope you have a lovely time!
