  • NSD number 13 today! :j I'm not sure if I'll be able to carry on exceeding my target with many more NSDs but I'm committed to trying, and if I can't I'm going for the lowest spending days possible in what's left of the month. :D

    Best wishes, all.
  • Not been around for a while due to moving and no internet.

    Also not many NSDs since then for the same reasons (boredom :rolleyes: )

    Just realised that yesterday and today have both been NSDs though. Doing it without even realising! :D
  • I had another one today, which is most pleasing. I'm not certain I'm going to manage to make my target - I may be one short. Although I only have to get two in between now and Saturday, so you would think I could manage that...
  • 1 more NSD for Sunday and another today as I'm working til 8pm so won't have a chance to spend :D

    Woohoo that makes 14, just 1 more to squish in before end of the month
    :j
    All the coffee in Columbia won't make me a morning person... :D:p
