Afternoon everyone just got in from work wher the computer is rubbish and wouldn't let me in here.

Afternoon guys. I've been a busy bee. Beef stew is in the over.. I've washing and dried my hair.. painted my toenails...shaved my legs as well as doing some bass riff recording.
Got bodytone later on but might do some sit ups to make up for the party sausage rolls we're having for tea today.... :rotfl:

They did bleed the brakes as well,

Oh yes, they'd have to, with replacing the cylinder. No getting away with it.

and apparently unless you have a piece of kit or someone to help it is a difficult job.

Very difficult to be both pumping the pedal and closing the bleed valve in the wheel...

Domestic goddess you are!! but i have to ask ......... Why bother washing your hair if you are going to class?! Or are you one of those women who doesn't sweat in class?

I did go to my excercise class last night - round of applause please - thank you - It was great but i was a red sweaty mess, and by far the fattest person in th whole class!! i was by no means the oldest as there were some right old dears, but i still felt a bit out of my depth! I certainly looked it!

I used to go to 2 classes a week, so i know i will pick up the moves and get back to some semblence of fitness in time but it was quite demoralising that noone else looked as nucking fackered as i was!

Plus have signed up for the race for life (my 3rd one! thank you very much again!) but i'm scared as i can't run for a bus these days, can't believe i ran a 10k in 2004.... funny i wore the tee shirt from that race to class last night, and i was thinking it has maybe shrunk and people were wondering why i was wearing a i teeshirt that obviously could not be mine as it said "i completed the moray 10k challenge" or something like that!

Another shameful moment was that i couldn't buy myself a RFL T shirt as they only went up to a size 16-18... and even if lose some weight, i am blessed in the frontage department so it would still be too small!!! Might email them to complain actually! maybe they could get a special fat chicks RFL one made up, i know there would be a market for them as the demographic of entrants is really vast, not all little skinny gym bunnies.

oh well, onwards and upwards!!

Something my OH told me last night - I nearly fell off my chair.

He has an old friend who has a business just about to go under. He has fought for months to keep it going and sadly, things don't look good and he will probably go bankrupt. Apparently this will be his second time which is even less good

Anway, he decided to do a bit of googling to try to get himself a very basic bank account in case he needed it. He knew his options would be limited and found (are you ready) a company who 'specialise' in finding bank accounts for people with difficulties........he now has a lovely shiny basic Halifax account......and the fee?? £180 for the pleasure of the 'expertise' in solving the problem.:eek: :eek: :eek:

I printed off the FSA list of basic bank accounts this morning as well as the first post from one of the stickies on the bankruptcy board and told my OH to pass them on today as his friend should be able to get the Co-Op account at the very least. I guess he won't be able to get his £180 back.

Scary - just think how many other people believe they are getting some 'special' service when they can quite as easily do it themselves - my OH's friend is hardly stupid yet he didn't think he had any other options.

I also told my OH that next time his friend is going to do something, either look at MSE, or get me to look it up - I only charge a bottle of wine!!

Hiya guys and gals before I catch up with the thread, I thought I would share this little story with you. Today, I went to the perfume shop to bu some perfume for my mistress and the girl asked if I needed some help. Isaid that I was just looking thanks very much. Anyway this girl was quite petite and in fact she was quite a good looking thing and if I am honest I did check her out but I didn't stare. I'm allowed to look so long as I dont touch eh. Anyway, I decided to ask her a question. What I wanted to say was "Do you have a small bottle of x perfume' instead what came was "Do you have a small bottom" at which point I coughed and spluttered, she laughed her mates laughed, she went red so did I think unless it suddenly got hot in there. How daft did i feel. In case you were wondering though, she did have a small bottom!!!!!
