Yes... every 6 weeks - 2 months really!The thing is as well Taka, you're doing so well with the weightoss, you must be dropping a dress size pretty regularly so it essential :j
I love charidee shops
I started at a size 30 top, now a 20/22 top depending on the make / cut. I was a 28/30 bottom half and I'm now in size 20 jeans (but they are quite loose now but the 18s are just a wee bit too tight still!).
I had another great skating lesson last night. :j We started on some of the other jumps. I'm such a wuss! Need to find the courage to actually jump in the jumps. Currently I do microscopic hops if I don't chicken out altogether! :rotfl: I also did fine examples of how not to centre a spin... spins should spin in the same very, very small spot... My 1st few covered a good 1.5-2 metres!
Oh well it kept coach entertained! :rotfl: I also need to learn not to swear (loudly!) at myself *quite* so often when things go wrong!
:rotfl:
Looks like work is going to be interesting for the next few months - somehow my boss seems to have agreed to take on a bazillion students/visiting people for the next couple of months! Eeeeek! :eek: I'm not entitrely sure mine speaks English... :rotfl:Mortgage free as of 12/08/20!

We're not going to have room for chairs at this rate! :rotfl: Lets hope some of the folks who have the bench spaces either side of us don't mind us temporarily taking over a bit of their space - I'll leave my boss to negotiate that though!I've heard of job sharing but never chair sharing
