    Had 2 NSDs out of the last 3 which takes me to my target (admittedly modest in comparison to some) of 8 in August :T:T:T.

    Will try for 10 in September.

    Hello everyone, wow haven't we all done well :)

    Having achieved 1 more than my target in August, my September starts today with payday and I'd like to go for 10 this month (hope the challenge will carry on, pretty please). After achieving my August target, I certainly took my foot off the brake and spent like there was no tomorrow :( Had friends down for the bank holiday weekend and went a bit crazy.

    Anyway, had a far too expensive month and have to have that hunger to reach my target again. As I've already bought most of my Christmas presents (only DD, my parents and a couple of friends and I'm the queen of buying nice bargains during the year) I hope that if I do the 10 in September, I'll keep upping the target each month....
