Bohemian Rhapsody is the best film I’ve seen for a good while. Bonus was the cinema we went to was only 4.99 a seat and ds paid for us - so all in all a good trip :j:money:
I’m hoping dh is panicking over nothing about his pension. Surely we can’t be scammed twice. It’s a government organisation he worked for when the pension was taken out so I’m quite hopeful - he was cut off again today though as he tried to phone and told to go to the website.......which just says they’re experiencing backlogs :mad:
Feeling quite righteous atm. I went to the gym on the way home from work - first time in ages - and have stayed on plan food wise all day :rotfl::rotfl:don’t think it’ll be enough for a loss on Thursday after the celebrations last week for dh birthday....watch this spaceall the celebrations for the year are over now though (apart from a gift voucher to a posh restaurant he had as a gift) so I should have a clear month until works Christmas do.....

Hopefully all will be all well with DH's pension.
Good news on the gym & a full day on plan.

Thanks Beanie - I’m giving it my best shot as I wore some trousers at work for a themed Egyptian day - I used to be really pleased with these trousers but they cut me in two, made my scar sore and the white shirt I wore wouldn’t even fasten - I ha dot wear a t shirt under.....I’m going to do it - even if I go the scenic route to my destination:o
I’d planned a swim on my way home but put myself on auto pilot and was half way home before I realised I’d not turned - so I came home and chilled.
Dh finally got through to pension people and it’ll be paid next month:Dphewww........ now I’d like a similar result with mils inheritance but I’m not holding my breath.

Lost 2 lb tonight a sw which I’m quite pleased with - I didn’t go last week so it’s over 2 weeks but I went out for 4 meals and celebrated dhs birthday during that time so I’m more than happy.
Had a letter from the hospital which confused me today - saying I was on the list for surgery and the professor was in agreement with the other doctor I saw last time So I phoned the secretary to check if I needed to go at the beginning of December for the appointment I already have from them - she is going to let me know....anyway I asked how long the waiting list was - it’s currently about 9 months.....so I can relax for a while. My sickness allowance at work should be fine by then - hope I’ve not tempted fate by saying that.....or it doesn’t get much worse during that time.
I should be going on a school trip tomorrow but the little one I was going with isn’t going to be in - so not sure whether going or will be put into a different class. Was quite looking forward to it too - ahh well.
I’m off to see White Christmas tonight with my friend we’re taking her mil who has dementia.....could be an interesting evening as she a bit of a character to say the least.January spends - £587.580 -
Well done on the 2 lb :j :j
How confusing re the hospital.

Just got caught up with you. At last good news on money matters DH pension , it all counts. The hospitals I am sure just try to confuse you and they don't talk to each other . Nine months is a long waiting list . Your celebration last week sounded great , glad you got to town and had a nice meal.
Hope White Christmas outing goes well tonight and that you find a place to work tomorrow!This is a system account and does not represent a real person. To contact the Forum Team email forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com0
