    Well i'm gonna go for 10 please.
    Will get a weekly bus ticket and then i'll have other days where i don't have to spend!

    I was just going to suggest that! :D

    I *was* planning on an NSD today but I need to bake up a storm ready for packed lunches and I've just disovered that almost all my flour is weevil infested so I shall need to buy more today. (Ugh! :eek: )

    If I think hard about it and remember everything else we might need for the next few days then I should be good for a few NSDs then.

    So, Day One...and I'm already a bit worried that this is going to be harder than I thought! :o:D :eek:

    Love Jacks xxx :D

    You need to do this:

    [strike*]£1,000[*/strike] but remove the asterisks (they're just there so the code shows up for you to see it). When you remove them, you should have:

    £1,000

    (Copied from Misty Blue on the Payment a Day thread, I only found out today!)


    Thanks DFD, I tried this & there are no asterisks on there to strike the amount through, it just ends up as your quote does above with the words inside these[ ] !? :confused:

    Hi to those of you that have done this before! :D

    A quick query - is a NSD one where I spend nothing or when where the HOUSEHOLD spends nothing? :confused:
    Do not meddle in the affairs of Dragons, for thou art crunchy and good with catsup :D
