    Evening all

    Hope everyone is well.

    Well I am very proud of myself, i have now had 4 NSD's. :j

    Don't think i have EVER done that, although i thought i was going to have to buy lunch today as we were having a family day and was gutted, but we had a change of plan.

    Am also working the next two days, (12 hour shifts) so a potential 6 NSD's!!

    Have a good week all.

    Hi Pointy, i'd love to be added to your list. :beer: I'm terrible for spending money on silly things.

    I'm a little late in joining so you might not be able to add me, but if you can i'd like to reduce my spending to £10 this week.

    I need to learn restraint and self-discipline where money is concerned. :rolleyes: This is a good a way to start as any. :T

    Hi Flying Fresian :hello:. Hope you enjoyed your Easter, now it's back to the real world of debt management. ;)

    Have a good evening everyone. :D

    :hello: mcjordi I have added you to the list.

    F_F I had a lovely time up in the frozen north, it was so pretty and very sunny. How was your holiday?
    I had a lovely time, thanks! You'll see from my diary that it has made us think about moving to the country again too :D

    NSD for me yesterday, back to work today though so will have to be more vigilant :rotfl:
