Good Morning Everybody :hello: :hello: :hello:

Couldn't see the thread and didn't want to leave it too late, as it seems to be 'better attended' the earlier it is started. :rolleyes:

Anyway, hope everyone had a good weekend, and is ready to 'attack' the week - and what etter way to 'start the week' than with Monday's 'Daily Spend' thread :cheesy: :cheesy: :cheesy:

So you know the rules - there aren't any - just post your spends, large or small, budgetted or unbudgetted, and watch your spending habits improve.

And a 'final' word of encouragement from the founder of this thread - the almost legendary 'moozie':

'Keep it Low'
And have a great day. :wave: :wave:

    Morning Rog and all who follow

    See I missed the troll again over the weekend.

    Well, as expected, an expensive weekend.

    Today should be an NSD - bought some teacakes for sandwiches and have enough until Wednesday. So will need to spend on Wednesday; am aiming at 2 NSD!

    Have a great day everyone.

    Afternoon All,
    I've spent £14.80 on 2 prescriptions and some paracetemol for DH. He has prostatitis.
    I'm supposed to have 2 mystery shops today, but with him laid up in bed I think I'm going to have to cancel them...I'm not quite sure what to do...

    He might feel well enough to be left 'on his own' for a bit, Frankie - it might even do both of you some good. :confused:

    Hello!!! :wave: :wave: :wave:

    Lovely to be back, especially when I am turning into a legend in my abscence ;) Thank you lovely Rog :kisses3:

    I am pretty sure I will become a regular again as I just got a new job and internet access seems to be easier - fingers crossed!

    So, spending for today, £4 for taxi to get here. Bad spending, I know but it was raining cats and dogs down here :o

    That will be it for today. Have a good afternoon/evening everyone and, keep it low ;):D

    Hi Moozie - you can not begin to imagine the pleasure that seeing you post again has given me.:T :T

    We have all missed you, but have been determined to keep 'your thread' going as, unlike the 'long-term' challenges, anyone can join and doesn't have to apologise if they miss a few days, or even go 'off the rails' for a while.
    It seems that you 'post' on the odd day that I try to 'run' the thread, but really there are quite a few of us 'dedicated' to keeping 'the thread to be seen in' alive and kicking. :o:o

    The real credit should go to PostingalwaysPosting, who, almost single-handedly, kept this thread going for about a year, and more recent posters like kizzywizzywizzy, free, peb and mickey mouse, who have embraced the thread over the last twelve months. :):)

    PaP stil manages the 'challenge' and, occasionally, looks in on this thread to make sure we are all behaving ourselves. :rotfl: :rotfl:

    It will be great to see you back in charge again. :A
