Great job, the aliens approve, so your set. Maybe that's what's wrong wth BigMumma, needing a wee fiddle. Anyway put me down for 12 again, me and the aliens re confident.
Welcome along, chasingsunshine. You'll get plenty of inspiration and ideas on here - we're a very friendly bunch. Look forward to reading your posts:)chasingsunshine wrote: »I'd like to join too please!
I'm a newbie to MSE and these challenges etc so not really sure how accurate I'll be but I'm going to aim for 15 NSD.
It might be tricky as I have a 15 wk old baby who seems to need something every day :eek:
Looking forward to this one!

            Yay, good work solventsoon! Please put me down for 8 again...I have been thinking that if I don't include spending on my card or cash, I will cheat. I was going to not declare petrol days (2 a week), but if I don't I would cheat, and get chocolate or sweets as well!
We are glad to have you, and I think you will look after us brilliant...there will be no trying about it!

            Thanks solvent for the new thread.
Since starting the NSDs challenges in January I have faired well in January due to the snow 20/15, feb was 16/18 and march looks likely to be the same. So with fear I will still pledge 18, I will reach this target someday plus even if I don't it makes me spend less and thats got to be good.MFW 2016 No 68 £1300/£8500 No new toiletries Cook sth different0 - 
            Declaring 12 NSDs for March.
 Over my aim of 8!!! :j
Can i be put down for 12 in April please
I think it will be easier as there are more days but also the kids are off which can mean more expense!
I have done one NSD yesterday so gonig good so far! Today would have been one if it wasn't for bliming ebay postage!!! :cool:Orange Fairy
