    I was going to do it this summer but then had to pay the mortgage without any financial assistance for 6 months so I couldn't afford to... I may have a look how things are when I get my grant through and see what to do for the best.. I still have the overdraft and a third of the mortgage to pay at the moment.. but from tomorrow it's all change again!

    I'd like to join too, if that's ok. I signed up to tesco diets 5 weeks ago and lost 10lb since then. :j Only about 22lb to go...
    Their support is quite good, I like the flexibility and I don't think it's dearer than WW or SW.
    DS1 broke a part on the Wii, but we should get that sorted this week. I really need to get fitter. If I start to exercise, I can also eat more. The diet allocates more calories if you exercise regularly. :D
    I've already budgeted for 3 (small) drinks a week in my mealplan, so alcohol is no problem.
    I'll let you know when I'm back on the wii.

    Best get back to flying. My plan for Sunday always looks doable at first, but when it gets to early afternoon I realise that I've got no chance of doing it all. There's a coffee waiting to be decluttered, while I sort out priorities.

    Enjoy your Sunday, everyone:wave:. x

    We have word from an inside source that they will give him another assessment in a months time. Luckily he chose to sit the written paper after they failed his scenario and they said he had a high level of knowledge so will let him have another chance. Its weird though as he has done hardly any shifts this month, he only did one last week and 1 the week before so hoping they pay him what he's contracted for.
    Can he request a different examining team - or a different (unbiased) location for the assessment? Surely shouldn't be the same examiners.
  • Hippy nice to see you posting - how are you - are you getting organised for Oh coming back - how long have you got left?

    Kids going to their dads in 30 mins so am planning to have a waltz around the house having a general tidy up. Then its ironing and WM/TD on before they're back at 5pm.

    Once theyve all gone to bed between 8 & 9 I intend to have a nice pamper of myself... defluff bits, eyebrows, etc etc instead of sitting in front of [STRIKE]this forum[/STRIKE] the TV all night drinking:T

    oh and I MUST find that charger!!:rotfl:
