    Yea i definatly think its worth it - well for me anyway. I hate the gym - mainly because i dont like exercising infront of other people. So rather than pay £40 or whatever a month to do something i really wouldnt enjoy i can do a bit everyday at home where no one can see me. And the fact that OH got it even cheaper is even better!! And the exercises are quite fun and different aswell.

    Got OHs mum on just the normal wii fit aswell on the hoola hoop one, but she couldnt stop laughing so didnt do to great!

    The Pump it Up dvd nearly kills me! And I follow the girl doing the 'easy' verison too.

    Very slow at work! Just ordered my brothers birthday present - 9 pairs of socks from Topman. Sounds like a boring gift but he's like the Peter Jones of our house, got a tshirt for OH too. No. More. Shopping! Still have enough in the bank to cover my direct debits though so it's all good!

    I wouldnt even want to say what his mums wii fit age was :rotfl: she found the whole thing absolutly hilarious and failed misserably. She was laughing that much she couldnt breathe. Que OHs dad coming home from work - think he thought we had both been taking something.

    My wii fit age is my actual age so im happy with that :D

  • Hmm, back on track I think with a very skinny sushi-and-pineapple dinner, though it was from Boots so not very MSE!

    Been looking at budgets til Christmas to try and work out if I can afford to go to New York in november and it looks like a resounding NO, can barely afford everything else I've got going on! Might be a Springtime trip :(

    Well yes, but if I've said 'yes, its okay' and they keep blocking it, thats stupid. They even thought my £53 at Tesco petrol was fraud! I'd be a very pitiful fraudster if pushing the boat out was tesco petrol.

    Oh no Dinah they must be having a panic that you would spend so much on something!

    Cinny - it is hard work that Pump It Up DVD must do you good though!

    Know what you mean is very annoying. My mum has had a lot of problems with her bank recently. She has recently moved into a new rented place and when she tried to make the first payment of about £1500 for the first month rent and deposit the bank stopped it four times despite her telling them it was ok. In the end her rent was 3 weeks late and they only put the payment through after she got very angry with them and told them to cancel her account and lots of other very rude words :rotfl:
