    Hi P

    All sounds quite good. Lets hope your start date doesn't get put back. Once you are successful with the assessment doing you become a fully paid up member of the Leaders club straight away...that would be nice. :D

    Anyway need to go and get ready for netball so have a fab day and hope babysitting goes well.

    Hi everyone
    Have had a pretty good day today so far - Got a text from a friend today so we met up and went out for lunch and he paid! :D

    I took the very cute but rubbish mobile phone back to the shop this morning and paid £30 extra to get a PHONE I knew I could use, and from playing around with it I know I have made the right choice :)

    I also bought some bits and pieces for my Weightwatchers meeting display table for my assessment. Also in Mr T while shopping got drawn in by the clothing sale and bought a summer dress and a pretty top :)

    Today's spends
    £30 Extra for phone I exchanged
    £4.84 WW display stuff
    £12 Top
    £8 Summer dress
    Total £54.84

    Thats it for the weekend - busy week ahead including my WW assessment, Outing with the kids at work, waxing getting done, my friend coming up from Coventry for the weekend to go to our other friends wedding, the wedding itself, haircut and put up, speedway and a long weekend off work!

    Have a great week

    Hello leader :D I have to confess not a good weigh in on Monday put on 1.5lb. I need to get my head in gear. Good so far so fingers crossed I will be on the losing trail next week. Once again well done chick, I am sure you will be a brilliant leader.;)

    Hi everyone
    Sorry I've been MIA for a few days had a friend visiting and have been to another friends wedding this weekend.
    Lots of money spent and for a 330ml bottle of diet coke (No draught stuff) at the wedding it was £3 a bottle :eek::eek: Needless to say I took a hipflask instead of buying alcohol! :D
    Also yesterday I put on my bet for the speedway GP and I managed to win money on the winner and 2nd place gaining £46 :DSo £6 up for the year so far :)
    I went along to my new WW meeting today just to meet and greet the members and introduce myself to them - I think I am going to have to work very hard to get people to stay for the meeting talk as only 4 people stayed and I have recruited all 4 of them as helpers :D
