Hi all, been a but naff recently so sorry not posted! Been trying to balance everything (mostly debts!) and seem to find it hard to get a balance! I think I need a real life excercise buddy but no idea to go about finding one...any ideas?. Also debating whether to continue paying for ww or to go for the DIY version but I do find the online system fab for tracking points. Anyway, we will see. Hobsch can well understand why you are cautious - v. scary for you! Back to work I go...just popped home as was passing between visits & made a nice DFW lunch!Nerd no 109 Long haulers supporters DFW #1! Even in the darkest moments, love and hope are always possible.0

Well done! I've done it a few times (last time looooooooong time and two stone ago). The crowds in Newcastle were so supportive and a great experience. Never doing it again though!
Big thumbs up for everyone who made the effort this year!Almost debt-free, but certainly even with the Banks!0
