I've got my argument ready for tomorrow........;)
My dad was slim all his life. I reckon his was a skinny person's heart attack. By staying fat, I'm actually preventing it happening to me.
What do you reckon? Will they buy it

OH MY GODDDD (said like Janis from friends) I haven't been here very long but I really missed you guys. I had a letter that said I'd been turned down for the the new bank account. They've moved our application over to a basic account with no cheque book, no switch card etc. and it took me a day to come round to that being a good thing. To be honest the main issue for me was this electron card. Not being able to use it everywhere etc.
I suppose I'm scared about not having access to credit, makes it all the more real and serious. Ever since I've worked I've had access to an overdraft (rarely used it at first!).

It does. Look around the gym - everyone is always happy and smiling.
Look at these three...
They're so happy they're just about to burst...
You see I always think that, on my admittedly rare trips to the gym everyone looks so freaking miserable or are having really bonkers conversations about diets and/or on one memorable occasion bowel movements.

it will be good for the bones, trust me. BEsides, Electron is becoming more widely accepted. You could apply for a prepaid Credit Card if you are that concerned. Do you know about them?thatcherschild wrote: »OH MY GODDDD (said like Janis from friends) I haven't been here very long but I really missed you guys.
