    Hey 5 lb is a good start - and lots of walking and regular small meals sounds like a sensible way to get more lbs off. Good luck. and good luck with the dreaded dentist (shudder).

    I hate the dentist(they really scare me).
    Am hoping that my exercise/diet plan works as then I'll not need to join a group.

    Morning all,
    just checked banking and am pretty annoyed that Halifax have took their loan payment a day early out of my A+L account...it is due 27th of the month and if that falls on a weekend is usually paid on the folllowing monday.I'm lucky in that I had enough in the overdraft to cover it but what would happen to customers that don't have that provision.?
    I pay my money in daily and run on a tight schedule and may have allowed todays and tomorrows banking to cover it.I think it's very cheeky!!!!
    Off to the dreaded dentist and to the bank this morning.

    Forgot to say money also came out for Barclays but don't update that until I get the statement or the BMI one as they both have interest.
  • Morning Taxi,

    Sounds like dinner was yummy, we had cottage pie and have saved some for DD for lunch today.

    Don't you hate it when banks do that with payments, it's happened to us a couple of times in the past and has thrown us over the overdraft.

    Don't envy your trip to the dentist so will have everything crossed for you for a smooth visit.

    Tea
    xx
