Nice day off. Did 8.8 mile run, then friends for lunch.
Frustrating have spent last hour doing banking and noticed that AA has taken money out for breakdown cover that I didn't want or ask for (with RAC) and then email saying half an online order cancelled as not in stock but as on 1 of many gift cards I have had to ring and sort. Both was a wait of over 15 minutes each.
Good news is now under 6k.

Hi HDK,
I've only found this site in the summer and have read so many tips and hints to push us forward. .Mmm without sounding stalker-ish , can I just say how impressed I am with your achievements,your masters degree, your job, your family, your weight loss and your fitness/ maintenance and your mortgage reduction. I hope I have some strength and determination to achieve just a couple of these.
