    Evening all,

    Just got home from my spinning class, i do love spinning, such a good way to exercise and have fun!

    You will be asleep early tonight Amy, you must be knackered after your day at work and little sleep. Its good you get a lie in tomorrow. I hate the dentist, i think its my biggest fear, or is that spiders, hmmm.

    Well done Jen paying off some extra money this month, you must be feeling great. I love paying off extra, makes me feel like i'm actually getting somewhere with my debt.

    I've always hated going to the gym, i get bored easily. The only good thing is the classes i go too, spinning and kickboxing are the best. I am quite lucky as my mate is the manager of our local gym, so he lets me in for next to nothing. If he didn't work there i'd have to get a yearly membership which would set me back £46 a month, so i probably wouldn't do any exercise as no way i'd ever pay that.

    Enjoy your bath Amy, I may go and do exactly the same thing now. Might put a bit of chilled out music on too.

    is spinning that bike thing? otherwise i have mental picture of lots of ladies in a room ,arms outstretched,charging round in circles :-)
    urgh dentist-good luck, i am that scared of the dentist the doctor gives me valium to take before an appoitment (thoroughly recommended to any other nervous patients just ask your doc!)
    Know what you mean Amy-im working tomorrow then off til next thurs, i am desperate to bring in some more cash, just end up sitiing in front
    of the comp looking pitifully at quidco!

    Yeah spinning is the bike thing MM hehehe!! It is a bit mad, but once you get into it you will love it, its so much fun, and your exercising at the same time.

    Anybody know of any good deals on Quidco? keep hunting to find some good offers. Still no ISA deal though, damn!!!

    ok lets see 22 ish weeks till nov £800 to pay £800 divided 22 = £36.36 a week i pay £15 a week on payment so i need to pay an extra £21.36 a week!! eek not sure if i can do that??! maybe i will be the end of nov too!! lol
    try 25 weeks divided £800 = £32 a week - £15 payments = £17 extra a week... uuummm i think it depends on how my car boot cashback sites etc go?? have you worked your out till the end of nov yet mm??
