The latest news on Tazzy Towers financial crisis:

I was stressing that I would have to stop training AND stop going to the gym for a week as I didn't have the money to pay my gym membership and my MA insurance is due on march 1st. I soon realised that I could pay my insurance with a check and keep fingers crossed that I can get money into my account before it clears. I can't do the same with the gym though as it is a DD payment so my dad very kindly gave me the money to put in my bank. THEN I checked my account when I got home and I am £8 overdrawn. DOH!!! I will be phoning the insurance company today to see when they are going to give me some money cus I am sooooooooo fed up of being skint! On the plus side though, I found out this morning that my sick pay lasts for 6 months so I have no worries about my pay dropping!

 

[Jim]

What happened Taz? this is before my time I think.

 

[Taz]

I'm off work sick Jim and I am waiting for all my payment protection insurances to kick in. I phoned Lloyds this morning to ask the status of my claim and they said they have received my application and it needs to be reviewed. Within an hour she phoned back to say the money will be in my account today! Woo Hoo I can buy food!

 

[abz]

such good news taz!!

 

[Taz]

It sure is Abz. One down 3 to go!

 

[Gemstone]

Good news Taz - I'm so pleased for you x

Jim - with a name like arse-end no wonder he's crappin (whoops... did I really say that out loud?)

Abz - So glad you've landed with weight watchers. My friend is doing it (core) and has ANYTHING she fancies. She is not bothered how quickly she loses but she is losing CONSISTENTLY and that makes a big difference - a bit like the hare and the tortoise really - she's doing SO well. I hope you have the same success x

 

[abz]

so do i gem. although my colleague just bought me a sack of maltesers instead of the small bag i requested *sigh*. so i've taken out about what would be in a small bag (i think) and i'm going to have to give him the rest back... bloody idiot.

 

[Smiley Bon]

Well done on not eating the whole bag that was temptation and you gave it back yays.

There is soooo much chocolate in the shops at the moment cos of Easter, it's torture!

 

[Jim]

That's great news Taz, I'm well pleased.

That's funny Gem. LOL

Malteser's, on a diet? never heard of that.

 

[abz]

ha. well he showed much surprise that i didn't take many. i gave him 50p for goodness sake. i wanted what i wanted. of course they are still on the table in between me and him because he's an eejit and doesn't have anywhere to put them... aargh.

nearly lunch time. have gone on my lunch break because my programming that i don't seem to be achieving anything in is driving me nuts. i seem to be deciding what i need to do with the day, and then trying to work out ways to avoid doing it. *sigh*.

 

[Taz]

Well done on restraining yourself Abz!

Thanks Jim, it's a huge relief as I don't get paid for 2 weeks and was starting to look for scraps in the neighbours bins!

 

[Jim]

I bet it is Taz.

 

[abz]

i get paid on friday and it is going to be SO welcome... and then the majority of it is going to vanish on the mortgage and the rest on the gas bill... but at least my bank balance will look vaguely less dead for a few minutes...

[Taz]

I haven't been able to pay my training fees at all this year but I just paid January's and promised to pay February and March's when I get paid. I will be glad when I can start to get ahead again, I hate all this catch up business

 

[Gemstone]

Jim - The old maltys are excellent treats as long as you take note of portion size.

Abz - a funsize bag (99 cals I thing) you between 9 and 11. The standard bag (199) you get between 19 and 22. Enjoy x

 

[abz]

well i had 16, ha. but counted for the bigger sized bags, not the funsize one. so think i'll be ok thanks gem did you have to do some research just now to find that out? if so, i take full responsibility

abz xx

 

[Gemstone]

No research needed Abz - they form part of the contents of my naughty tin. I have all the things in there calorie counted and know what I'm getting into when I delve in x

 

[Smiley Bon]

Gemstone - I am sooooo impressed that you either knew that or managed to find that out!!

 

[Gemstone]

Put it down to experience Bon - sweet blissful experience - but not today - today I am being good x
