    Count me in please Kat. I have been a terribly naughty lilt for months and I need a kick up the batootie if you could oblige?

    TV - I watch about an hour a week so all good. Exercise, I am under physio's orders for a couple of slipped disks at the moment, so can basically walk slowly (3o minutes 6 times a week) or swim. I'm not a swimmer but I will do my best to at least take jellytot for a splash a couple of times and float around.

    The rest should be a breeze... :eek: lol

    Chickadees I thought I could stay up and welcome in July at midnight but I honestly think I am going to fall asleep with my head on the laptop....

    So - who might be the first to post at 00:01 eh?...

    Good night one and all. I will quite happily post about my journey into work when I am safely at work - for those that don't know I am cycling to the train station and back again every day for the month.....

    Eeeeek!

    hey. sorry nsk. I am still here.

    June kinda threw me as the holiday knocked my spending and my focus a bit.

    Basically, I worked wednesday dayshift, thursday dayshift, friday dayshift, saturday nightshift as they were shortstaffed and then another dayshift today.
    As a result there hasn't been much internet time as I have spent most of time off sleeping. I was away to sleep when I realised it was the end of the month and there would be a new challenge on the go.

    I have my new plan in place and raring to go for July. Putting a disasterous June behind me.

    Hugs to everyone.

    Would love to be the first post but off the sleep too after watching Germany go through to the next round of the World Cup. Live ticker on the BBC website from now on though ;). Can't wait for tomorrow to join you all again.

    Good luck every body

    Checking in for the 1st July (am I the only one who feels like christmas was about 5 minutes ago??) and hoping to score my first NSD as well. Sadly I can't have the satisfaction of paying off my debt for the month until the 15th, as I have a middle of the month payday, so the next couple of weeks are about finishing the month in style for me. Good luck everyone!
    Proud to be debt free September 2014. :j
