    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    BG have just brought their rates down though haven't they?

    If not, shop around, Some of them have got £120 cashback on Quidco for duel fuel at the moment! You're not tied in with them are you?

    They wont have brought the prices down to 2006 levels though :eek:

    Only tied in until the end of the price freeze period. Will def shop around after that.

    Thanks for the cross trainer/treadmill advice. I've looked on ebay but as I don't drive I can't go collect anything (still need to save up anyway). I don't know of anywhere that hires stuff out, I will look into that but will probably be out of my price range anyway.

    DD1 is grumbling away, I had the cheek to wake her up at 11.30 and then presented her with her ironing pile, the iron and the ironing board. :D

    Spud just be careful that BG don't stick you onto another fixed rate tarriff. See the news thing at the side. You need to opt out 30 days before your fixed rate deal ends

    If I could go out to exercise I'd walk for ruddy miles. It's being tied to the house that's the issue....there's only so many times you can be faffed in running to the top of the house and back down again. :D
