    Gemmzie? This kind of got overlooked, whats going on?

    They've moved forward the date that we need the deposit for if we're going to buy an apartment.

    I know I have at least £6k coming from the car insurance claims so I'm fighting my bum off to not let this property go!

    Tell her to count how many of her friends have liked the site, she may have done it.

    I will do. She was getting pretty cross the other night with it all. Some friends were saying they had, but werent showing.
    Think Mr B's PA is charged with keeping him abreast (sorry:p) of pertinent points .............................. but seeing as she and Mrs Big chat I'm sure there are times when a pretty close eye is being kept on us.

    Ahh OK. I had visions of Mr & Mrs B and snuggled under a slanket with a lappy reading it all :rotfl:

    Just a quick thought, MG could your corset-making friend run up a couple of bras for DT?

    Loving the 'supportive' messages tonight!

    On the whole 'calendar girls' front, I am a bit worried about the comparison with 'bakery products' cos I can think of nothing to compare my 'more than amples' to!!! Will ask the lovely Baldy husband!!

    I am a bit lost with my current personal challenges though.

    I don't have a 30 day or 100 day challenge, I did start Mr Big's but through being away for work quite a lot completely fell off that wagon, my debt free diary has suffered (I am blaming work again, obviously!) then the Kits for Kids stuff kicked in and I am throwing all my energies into that. My PAD isn't going to well this week due to celebrating the husband's birthday in grand style and my listing of 5 ebay items a day is also a struggle. I haven't managed to do my 5 items of ironing a night since last Monday and my decluttering has ground to a halt. I am not doing very well at all am I? Also been off work for two days with a nasty infection in both of my ears (boss clearly unhappy about this but I actually can't hear out of one of my ears!!!) tell the truth, I am quite enjoying not being there and am not getting worked up about the silliest of things.

    I am currently undergoing counselling (that can be quite upsetting) at the moment for my depression and anxiety issues and that kind of knocks the wind out of me every Monday. So am not going to beat myself up about not achieving much these days.

    My achievements so far:
    1 Not using the c/c for two months now
    2 Succeeding in making £5 per day
    3 Collecting over 50 items so far for Kits for Kids
    4 Admitting to my counsellor my main 'issue' and using this as a foundation to work from to just sort myself right out - for good!

    erm............

    well that's it for now, but four minor achievements are better than one and its a massive improvement on none! Baby steps!!!

    Keep smiling and keep up the good work.


    Together we are, quite simply, brilliant!!

  • I'd still steer clear of M&S if I were you. For bras anyway. I've tried their larger sizes and the sizing is awful. Plus they made me cry when I was pregnant. And my sister. Good for knickers though. Sorry Mike...

    It would be a good earner cause not many shops sell larger lingerie


    Now this is the one message that gets Mr Big interested. He has some questions

    1. Are here a limited pool of suppliers for larger ladies in the UK?

    2. Are we representative of the issues that our friends have?

    3. If "Yes" to the first two questions. Who is going to rise to the challenge an look into setting up a business?

    Never gives up does he??
