    Hope you have all had a good mother's day either as a mother or with your mothers. And for our own very special mumma here is a little poem


    Without BigMummaF, there'd be nothing to do
    Without BigMummaF, we'd all be feeling blue :(

    There'd be no thread to post on and report our NSD's :A
    On what our bread had been spent on, would be a myster-ee :cool:

    Without BigMummaF, we'd have to remain in bed
    'Cause without BigMummaF our balances would turn to red :mad:

    We'd have no-one to talk to about our desire for a spree
    We'd have nowhere to go to for tea (ideas) and sympath-ee :o

    With BigMummaF we're a little virtual famil-ee
    With the help of BigMummaF I've developed NSD OCD! :j


    Oh yeah - I've had 2 NSD's this weekend :D
  • Happy Mother's Day to all you NSD mums out there! :kiss:

    One more for me today, went to the in-laws for lunch and footie-watching, so no chance for me to part with any of my cash. :D

    Ooh I'm halfway to my target! :j :j
    All the coffee in Columbia won't make me a morning person... :D:p

    As I suspected, the lure of the 'final Whoopsies' was too strong for me today - so not an NSD :o

    But there again, I got 3x800g loaves (1 each granary, best f/house & best multi-grain), 10xpick and mix rolls (5 honey & sunflower - lovely warmed up and served with honey - and 5 croissants), a piece of brie, a pack of 2 breaded haddock fillets (with cheese & brocolli topping), a pack of mini scotch eggs and a pack of 2 almond croissants

    So I guess I can't complain about losing a potential NSD as I gained enough bread to fill every crevice of my freezers, with rolls for breakfast for the next couple of days, bits for lunches and fish for one evening meal - and netted a haul with shelf values of £9.54 for just £1.89 ;)

  • NSDs have evaded me this last few days; I'm hoping to do better this week.

    Hope everyone is well and best wishes for the coming week, all. :)
  • :wave:

    Hope all you mum's out there had a great Mothers Day :beer:.

    I've not had a NSD for a while now. I seem to be spending money like it's going out of style. Strange thing is, i can't really say what i'm spending my money on :huh:, it's a mystery. Will make the effort tomorrow.

    Have a good week ahead peeps :T.

    Hi all
    Hope everyone's had a good weekend and that the mothers have been well-treated and looked after by their offspring:)

    curlygirl - love the poem :)
    cw18 - that's some haul for £1.89, think any one of us would have missed an NSD for that:T
    pure dead dopey - hope you enjoyed your lie down and the aliens are still with you :rotfl:
    elfen - I've often wondered about accents as well - I don't think I have an accent either, but I guess we all have:)
    Justicenpeace and coffee-break - hope you get some NSDs this week, keeping my fingers crossed for you both (maybe you could borrow pure dead dopey's aliens)

    Another NSD for me today, so halfway to my target:j:j.

    Good luck to everyone for tomorrow, lots of potential NSDs available in March, let's go get some of them next week :)

    Well done on the NSDs, jintyb, and on learning to knit - it's never to late to learn. Knitting's a great distraction and you can make all sorts of things once you have some experience (and confidence:)).

    Thanks solventsoon - knittting slow but sure!




    katenut now I have the voices of all you lovely MSEers in my head every time I put something in my shopping basket!! :D

    BigMummaF It is scary isn't it! When I read thru the posts, everyone has a different accent too, altho I haven't a clue where anyone lives grinning-smiley-044.gifI DO THAT TOO!!

    I think its our collective NSD consciousness keeping us on the straight and narrow! I'm hearing the voices too - or is it puredeaddopey's aliens?


    Nearly made it a NSD yest - but got landed with paying for the Sunday paper, usually OH pays for that - BLAST! I may claim it back anyway!
    Spend day today tho, a wee trip tp Asda and then the M&S outlet-eek!;)
    Got all the birthdays bought for tho, now its just the old banger to get thro MOT before month end, hoping it wont be too astronomic - pray for me folks :rotfl:

    Have a lovely day everyone x


    you will always be rich enough to be generous.
