    Another NSD for me today :)
    I very nearly bought a paper to read in the car while DD was at guitar lessons but I just picked a book up off my bookshelf instead. I'm leaving it in the car and then I've got something to read each week.
    off to update my sig.....

    nearly manages a NSD yesterday, then i went to get myself a brew and a sandwich to find.....no milk or bread, why cant they tell me when things are running low, i swear to god they think these things magically appear.
    so i spent £1:40 on milk and bread, (omg i forgot how expensive bread is), so hopefully tomorrow will be a NSD as i will be in the kitchen baking all day lol
    If we can put a man on the moon...how come we cant put them all there?
