  • Will do guys! Sure it should be Wednesday as checked the TV guide and states that Martin's slot should be on on the Wednesday...I think I will have to go in late to work on that day so I can watch it at home without anyone from work gorking at the screen making their comments! Gonna be very odd seeing myself of the tele...and my DD too...just she was being soooooo grumpy! Completely unlike her...think she was just a bit shy and I know that some kids at school were talking about it, giving her jip for her mum having no money...silly kids, they can be so cruel sometimes eh?
    Love your sig nic01...the taking control thing...well done you! Gotta be done! Really wish I hadn't piled on the pounds the last couple of months as still don't really know what to wear! Def. will be jeans as have no choice there really! A big 'Grrrrrrrrr' at myself for scoffing my face WAY too much!

    Someone once said to me whatever doesn't kill you will make you stronger and I really believe that to be true!
    TRUE TRUE TRUE !! GOOD LUCK!:D ...just be yourself!
  • Ithink your really brave to expose yourself to the nation, i wish i had the gonads to do it myself.
  • ............ well not actually BREAK A LEG!! I mean Good Luck for tomorrow.

    So, what have you decided to wear then? Never mind the weight, it's the weight off your shoulders we need to know about now. Just wear black, that's what I do. A big of shading never harmed anyone.

    I sincerely hope you and your daughter enjoy your adventure. Take it as the gift it's meant to be. Your 15 minutes of fame. If it's rubbish help yourself to the GMTV loo roll as compensation.

    Will tape tomorrow a Wednesday to be safe. Power to you :A

  • Ooooh, im going to watch to. I think you are very brave. A lot of people are ashamed to admit they are in debt, but most of us are. I dont know one person who doesnt have a loan, credit card, store card, etc...
    PS:
    I bet you will look GREAT!! :D

  • Congratulations and well done on your bravery. You should be v proud of yourself. Can't wait till tomorrow to see for myself how it all went. So, was Martin nice, did he give you loads of tips, etc? Is the GMTV studio all smoke and mirrors then or is it pretty much like the telly? Did you see that silly Fiona woman?

    Thanks Fletch3163! Nope didn't see the Fiona lady! Ha ha! Nah...no smoke and mirrors...just like the tele really! And the sofa was felt very hard! Martin was an absolute angel! He really was soooooo lovely! He did give me loads of tips and said the researchers and himself will be in contact over the next few days to do a more thorough examination of my finances! So no more spending for me! I am gonna start my debt diary back up on here to help me keep on track for the year!
