    I will be going away but nothing too fancy. I'm in Sussex and I will be taking a week in Somerset. Even that will stretch me. I've been paying a few pounds most weeks into a pot but even with that I may need to use a credit card for a bit of it. Hopefully not but see how it goes. It's only the start of June but I am already feeling like my mind and body need a break.


    I really hope you get a well deserved rest, I've no idea what's in Somerset but I'm sure you'll enjoy yourself! :D

    Talking of clingfilm, i've got my arm wrapped in it at the mo.
    Having some tattoos removed this morning and i'm trying some Emla cream to numb the area.
    You have to apply it in a thick layer then wrap clingfilm round it and leave it for at least an hour.
    Feels really weird, but if it means i dont feel any pain then i'm all for it lol :o

    How did the tattoo removal go?

    God today is just getting worse - sorry for a rant but i know you guys understand!

    just got the weekly email so applied for the MBNA 0% for 15 months and was declined!! I don't understand, I have a good credit score, never had a late payment on any card or mortgage and have a good income!

    arghhhhh.

    Sorry rant over!


    MinnieMe don't be too dis-heartened! Credit companies have their own way of scoring people so although you're a good customer with other people, they may see it that you already too much debt and may spend on the other card again (the one you are BT'ing from) so therefore you are left with 2 cards instead of one so may have trouble paying them off.

    Leave it a few more months and try again. I know it's difficult when you are trying to pay as little interest as possible but you don't want to keep getting declined because you've been declined! :A

    Made me laugh reading about the cling film, I can just imagine Angelic trying to wrap herself up in it!! :pI got the idea from a lad I went to college with. He used to wrap himself in it and play football for a few hours, he passed out once...I'm not sure if it was clingfilm related or not though! I need to lose a *cough cough* few pounds :o:( I seen the area manager from weight watchers today, he was asking when I'd take over the classes...I just well, judging by the 3.5lbs I put on this week, you'll be waiting a very long time :Dsupposed to be going away with OH end of July and I'm dreading putting a bikini on Don't put one on then, you can get a really nice tankini instead :( wonder if I can get one of those outfits that covers you from neck to toes??? :rotfl:OH said I don't know what your worried about there will be worse sights than you there and they'll have more cellulite than you! you've only got a bit on the back of your thighs?!? er thanks I'm really lucky that I don't have any, I'm dreading the day I get it though! :( that made me feel so much better NOT!!!!!:mad:

    Bloody men!!

    PAD of £10 for me today....... I'm thinking about the juicing diet fermented red grape juice that is......:)

    Textiles, languages, travel and a lovely home are not stupid things to want. You have immediate family's support.Appreciate what I've achieved so far. Other people's opinion of me is none of my business.

    Hi All

    I had some internet problems yesterday (DNS probs - had to refresh several times before anything would work!) so didn't manage to post ....although I did eventually manage to PAD

    I have taken the plunge and joined WW today - I am just fed up of feeling like a tub of lard and the effects it is having on my health (the back problems, the knee problems, the aggravated asthma)


    Yesterday's PADs were a total of £25.01 to Evil Egg (£20 = OH, £5.01 = me)
    Today's PAD is £2.02 to Evil Egg
