  • Evening all!

    Just popping on to update: Managed to clock up another NSD, at last, taking me to 5 NSDs so far. It's been a struggle with one thing or another but hoping to make more progress over the next few days.

    Glad to see people are doing really well and having a laugh in the process! :T

    Definitely, but I don't think she can make it. Amanda's got to get back for her day job with Simon and Piers:rotfl:

    That's not Amanda, LfV, her face isn't frozen - miaow, sorry :o:o:o

    You lot are all utterly crazy and totally lovely!! Haven't been on here for a couple of days, have quickly read through about 10 pages with a smile on my face! Of course you're all invited to the wedding - crazy hats will be compulsorary for any NSDers (especially the boys), you've got to out-do my future mother-in-law in style :) Bonus points for charity shop/ebay finds!

    Just a quick post top report that Monday was number 11 - I'm trying my hardest to get to an even number before I disappear up north this weekend though. Glad to see everyone is on good form and doing will, I'll be back to say bye before we go!

    :wave:Hi katenut,
    Just in case I don't see you before the weekend, just wanted to wish you and OH all the very best for Saturday. Hope you have a fantastically brilliant day - enjoy every minute.

    Well there I was, arguing with my paypal account as it wouldn't let me pay money to the clothes swap site so I can swap more than one thing a month, and so I can sell too, thinking, once I've done this I can go and update my sig to 7 NSD days. Only. I completely neglected to remember that paying for said website on my card via paypal, is in fact a spend! Booooooooooooo!

    Nevermind, to make up for it, I'm going to go right on there now and find some hats for your wedding Katenut!

    (Any-one going to the wedding who doesn't want to make the trip all the way back down south only to come up again next weekend, can stay at mine. Or bring a tent, there's a couple of massive parks nearby. The weather's been dry!)

    Hi lovely peeps
    You’ve been busy avoiding those nasty shops again I can see and having a laugh in the process - that’s the spirit :D...

    Lots more NSDs today, and another target being smashed into submission .....

    Target being met today:
    LadyfromVenice: :jyay......:j well done, target well and truly smashed out of existence. Oooh, you are pushing the boat out now, I’ll update your target to 18 now, like the spirit:D (love the hats, btw)

    Well done to:
    jintyb: oooh..:j no 11 and only one more to go .. yippppeeeeeeee.:T Keeping my fingers (and toes) crossed that you made your target today
    chris81418: yay .. :j another one on no 11... you’re going to make your target this month, I can feel it in my bones;)
    teenyweenyspender: hello again, hope the vino blanco went down well (I’m sure it did ;) ) and well done for no 13. :j Keep going, you can make your target
    katenut: crazy, what us, nahhhhh:rotfl: you’re mistaking us lot for some other load of nutcases.. Well done for no 11 on Monday:j - you’re doing brilliantly!
    Keiss 21: mad - what, this thread:rotfl: Yay...:j well done for no 11 (that’s a recurrent number this evening). Fingers crossed for another one tomorrow.
    Hmmm... an hour on here a day - that’s going to be difficult, it’ll take you an hour to read all the posts on this thread alone;)... You’ve had another busy day today, by the sounds of it, glad both DSs recovered sufficiently to have the family meal, hope you enjoyed it.:)
    willbedebtfree: yay to no 7:j - nearly halfway there now.. keep going!:)
    karenccs67: well done for no 12 :j- you’re nearly at target now, only 3 more to go, you can do it!!:)

    I hate to think of what the neigbours would think of you in a pair of those waders tacking the ivy:rotfl:..... Hope the rash is OK now? Glad you liked the smilies
    3Dogs: yay....:j well done for no 12 - that’s brilliant... Fingers crossed for another one tomorrow (lucky 13 for you, definitely);)
    Justicenpeace: :wave:hi, good to see you again... Well done for no 5,:j well over halfway now... keep going, you’ll get there..

    And hello to everyone else:
    pure dead dopey: hi, hope you (and aliens, of course) enjoyed the medicinal coffee and muffins.:) Glad your back is on the mend, hope you haven’t started it off again today by lugging the dog food around:(
    gabriella90: oh dear,:( but well done for getting back on track today. By what you’ve reported so far, you have 8 NSDs, so your target is well within sight .. keep going!!:)
    elfen: like the forward planning - well done.:) Hope you managed another one today
    BigMumma: I’m afraid I have to have my own mug as well:o - despite the fact we’ve got numerous other ones cluttering up the place - so have to go and buy a new one if I break it, stupid I know:o
    boultdj: oh dear to spend day today,:( you were doing so well. Brilliant news about the freebie coupon:T... Hmm.... does OH know that you’re fattening him up for Xmas.. which bit are you having for Xmas day meal?:rotfl:
    cw18: lots more bargains today, I see, brilliant!:) Sounds as though you’re going to have a busy weekend as well.:) Hope your shiner is fading now..
    slowlyfading: hope you enjoyed the canteen food - it sounded good:):)

    Another busy day on here:)

    Managed another one myself, up to 15 now :j

    Go girl, we've got some brilliant ones already :rotfl:

    Hmm, might be tempted by that :rotfl:

  • Hello everyone, gosh you lot talk a lot :D Got pages to catch up on but thought I'd stick my head round the door and say hello before we head to school. I'm on NSD No. 11 now. 4 more to find from somewhere, hoping to get one today and perhaps one tomorrow.

    Well done on all the success :T
