    What is the current holiday debate? Are you each wanting to go somewhere different?

    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    Awesome gg!

    Yes ed, bought some from farm foods today, very reasonable calorie wise.

    Lula, Dave wants to go away in big school hols, I want to keep my op s up, his argument is for the sake of a few months we should just enjoy and go away, emphasis on the fact that kids are only young for so long but my debate is we spent £+++ on Florida in April.

    Had phone call from school, dd3 threw up an needed fetching, so lunch cancelled and 1 of us needs to stay home rather than music so neither of us get the gym session... booooo . Daughter not so pale now ..

    Loving GG's images - when I googled images of p*** bears/ similar terms I came up with some VERY alarming ones - I'd totally forgotten what 'Bear' can mean.... ooops! :)

    So I caved and booked a holiday. Saw one for £3k on holiday supermarket with cosmos, then logged onto tcb, went to cosmos direct and over £500 cheaper but wouldn't let me book. Rang them, promised to ring back but didn't, so 2 days later, rang again after having another go. Computer glitch so won't track cash back but will give me online saving. Left it as felt quite unfair. Anyway further household debates, Dave saying just book it, so tried again online and has gone down £59. But still can't book. So went on without going through tcb and booked. 30 mins later, gets email saying £103 in tcb from cosmos. So very pleased as my surfing and patience / grumpyness has saved well over £600.

    Today went shopping, matalan 20% off, spent over £100 so nice saving made. Treated self to new joggers, jeans, t shirt and cardigan and all bottoms size 12 all tops size 10!!!!!!

    Also fetched dd1 New glasses, we had agreed she could have sunglasses and when we went last week they had an offer on, buy one get one free, so she ended up getting them for free.

    Yes, was unbelievably delighted, I did take bigger sizes into the changing room... got home and tried them straight back on. Feeling brilliant.
    Getting a fair bit of, "are you stopping now" but still 5lbs off a healthy bmi and would like to lose just over a stone more. It's the flabby belly that needs to go now.
