I didn't go to the gym last night, i didn't leave work until nearly 6:30pm, and i simply couldn't be bothered. I am going to make a real effort to leave work promptly today and go and do an hour. I still feel quite tired and achey, probably due to the cold i had last week, so i probably will take it fairly easy. Mind you i don't need to move fast to get the machine to tell me that i'm in the weight-lose zone.

It's weird, but since i've been on this WM course, i haven't felt like doing my gym plan much. I do the classes, so i guess that's enough. Mind you, June has been quite a topsy turvey month. I think July will be more settled.

Hmm, i was thinkign about snowboarding lessons at the snowdome, but i looked on the leaflet last night and noted that they don't give lessons to under 12's. This sent my panic signals off because i am not the size of 12 year old, i am smaller. I have just rung up to find out about the smallest size of snowboard boat that they hire out, and the woman on the enquiries line thinks that it is a 3 (i take a 1), she put me through the the hire manager, and i left a VM message. I hope that they do 2's, because i could probably get away with it. I hope that he rings back. I think i could probably fit a 3, but having never snowboarded i wouldn't know.

People don't think that being small has it's disadvantages, but here is one you can see. I try not to let my lack of height prevent me from doing anything, but sometimes it does.

I may end up trying in size 3's just for the hell of it. Plus i know that if i love it, it is possible to buy smaller size snowboarding boots.

and there i was, thinking about trying to save money. It's so ridiculous. I am seriously thinkin of writing to the Alvin Hall c/o the BBC for help! Still, only two weeks til payday.

It's good that i am saving so much. It'll help when i finally get my own place. The bills i think (including mortage) should come to around 500 quid a month, which is exactly what i am saving now. I now have 9 thousand pounds saved up. Which is extremely good. k of that is in an ISA, and would be better off not being touched for some time. The other 6k is in a very simple access account and can be used at any time. This is my deposit. I'll continue to save so that i have money for necessities like a fridge and a cooker (got to have those really!) and luxuries like a stereo system.

At the moment i play all my cd's through my PC. It isn't ideal at all. I know that i want something that i can put 3 cd's into and have them randomly play. a radio too, and maybe a tape deck. Two woudl be better so i can tape some of my jewel tapes for people..
