    I watched some of the Shred DVD last night - it seemed a lot longer than 20 minutes, and I wasn't even DOING it! That Jillian is very ... masculine ... isn't she?!

    Hehehe... she's certainly 'special'!

    Did you hear her saying 'You're Strooooooong'?!
    Overcome the notion that you must be ordinary. It robs you of the chance to be extraordinary!

    Thanks CMD & Flower :D It isn't like we're reaaaally short on spare money, but the extra will be really lovely. Like last month when we thought it would be really tight we actually had £400 spare, despite spending all that we've managed to come out the other side with money. Which is novel! I think we've got something like £240 left over. Worked out we'll have £650 left after our bills next month, not including what I'll earn cleaning or what we've got left over. I really don't know what happened, we were flat out broke last month. It's one of our MOTs this month though, so it couldn't have come at a better time.

    It goes really quickly when you're doing it, Tete! But yes, she is very manly. In my family we just refer to her as 'Shouty Woman' or 'The Shouty One' I do really like her though :D Admittedly she takes enjoying exercise to a level I hope to Fey I never join her on!

    I did hear that Birdie and chuckled to myself. In fairness to her, she doesn't give you any cr*p - keeps saying how hard you have to work to look like this etc which I liked because it's true.

    Sounds like you're doing really well for money Cinny. I got paid on Friday and haven't done the Money Shuffle yet, really ran out of money at the end of last month but I've a feeling it was 'abnormal' expenses such as head torch and emergency whistle! I might do a spending diary for July, just to see...

    Jillian sounds like a hard task master!

    Cinny - you are doing so well with money. Thanks for the PM. Hopefully I will be able to join :)

    I am having some work issues at the moment and wouldn't mind some advice. I have posted on my own diary rather than clogging up Dinah's. I do that enough. Lol :)

    Jealous :rotfl:

    I'm really stressing about money at the minute, and as you may of noticed the debts just seem to be standing still. Feel like we're stuck in a bit of a rut moneywise at the minute. Doesnt help that Tax Credits mucked up our payments and we havent had any for 4 weeks.

    Morning all,

    Payday for me today! Got paid more than I thought I would so put the extra in my savings. Will have to have a look at my payslip when it comes, the whole maternity pay thing confuses me!

    Paid my Mum yesterday towards the cottage we are staying in August in the lake district.

    This shred lady sounds scary. I really should do some exersise and get rid of my extra baby weight but feeling a bit lazy still hehe.
