Smilies - if you click on reply at the bottom of the thread - the smilies box should be to the right - click on the more button for more options (the waving smiley is there).
Signature - click on UserCP at the top of the page, then on signature and add your new signature

Hi Treacly - well done for March and good luck for April.:) All signed up now, welcome on board again:)Hi solventsoon - I smashed my March target of 10 NSDs by one whole day, so working on the 'softlee softlee catchee monkee' principle, I'm using that as my April target - please put me down for a glorious 11 NSDs. Thanks!
Hi coffeeholic - welcome to April:). You'll smash your target this month, I can feel it in my bones:). And thanks:ocoffeeholic wrote: »Hiyaaa count me in again for April, I'm sticking with 18 please as it was a tight squeeze this month and I want to see if I can smash target next month.
Fab job you are doing with new thread solventsoon 
Hi Justicenpeace - welcome to April:). Sounds as though you have a similar sort of April to me - birthdays:mad:...... We'll get there though:)Justicenpeace wrote: »Thanks for the new thread :T
Could you put me down for 8 this month please? I'm counting everything, including things I've budgetted for, but have quite a lot on (birthdays, people staying over etc) so it may be a bit more difficult than last month.
All best wishes everyone! :A

I know i'm encouraging you to have a NSD, but just a reminder for those that guzzle large quantities of petrol that it goes up at midnight. According to MSE though it's better to have half a tank rather than a full tank as you go through more fuel pulling round the extra weight of a full tank.
Enjoy your Wednesday!0 -
