  • Hi fishy,

    So you stayed the same - that's good sweets. Hope you are feeling okay and ela gets a good weigh in tomorrow then we can see the new graph with Ali (welcome!).

    Its like before I go on a diet - shoveling food in my mouth like there's no tomorrow!

    Enjoy your acupuncture!

    Um, I htought we were starting on the 20th - not that it makes any difference to me! I have done the exact opposite to you FF, and prepared for my £1,000 challenge by buying some air tickets to Canada!

    Er.....:rolleyes:

    AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. Ok breathe. I seriously cannot believe this washing machine repair co. Appt booked between 12 & 6 so popped out (to pay dosh into savings & do quick Tesco shop) but back by 11.15am. Nothing by 12.30 so thought I'd better ring to check that all OK. Turns out that they changed the appt to all day call, didnt bother to call me & called at 10.50am. Had the F******** cheek to sound generous by saying that they wouldnt charge me for lost call fee!! Nearly went into orbit!! Managed to get them to come back (they said noone would!) by explaining to a manager that this was totally unacceptable! Now have her phone number & name to call & book if I need to in the future! Just cannot believe it! Is it me?!!! Think I need to take up some kind of boxing as so angry about the whole thing cant quite decide whether I need to punch something (a bag - NOT a person!) or cry IYKWIM. Soory just needed to vent.
