    Hi Everyone...hope you're all ok.I've had a busy few days doing my course and am very pleased to report that I took the exam for the Word Processing part of the ECDL(EXTRA) today and I've passed it.I'm now on the Spread sheet part of the course and have until the end of March to finish that one.
    On the MSE front I paid another £200 off the 0% CC the other day
    On the weight loss front I had put on 5.5lb at WI last Thursday then changed to a Saturday class and had lost 1lb from my gain and hopefully will have lost the rest of it by this Saturday.I'm also going to be a helper at my meeting so this will be a saving of £20 p/m as well.
    Nothing much going on around here as I've been busy...also taxi developed a big oil leak,needed a service and a new tyre resulting in a bill just short of £400.
    Still waiting to hear from accountant how much tax we owe so that I can get that paid out of the way.

    Congratulations, Taxi, on the course!

    But how come you put on weight like that? Was that because of the course maybe? Sounds stressful if so!
