    Hello all i'm back!!! :wave:

    Lovely week away although I have to say it felt very strange spending every day without thinking about it!!!

    Big well done to everyone who has met their targets :T

    Hip flask is very full, probably a good job as PDD will be very cold after sitting on Brighton beach all weekend waiting for us!!! :rotfl::rotfl:

    Unfortunately no NSD's to report, but am hoping for at least one this weekend so i meet my target... fingers crossed :D

    Spoon & I I have had a chat & she is happy to continue being in charge of The List, but if there's anything you'd like to see in the first post/page give us a shout & we'll try to track it down for you. I urge you to have a look at the ideas for sandwiches & home made snacks particularly with--hopefully!--picnic season growing closer, & there's always the Recipe Collection on the first page of the current month's Grocery Challenge; some of MrsMcAwber's bread ideas have to be seen to be believed at how easy they are to make for yourself. At least with ingredients in the house, you've an opportunity to whip something up rather than go & buy....

    Its nice to know you're both here to keep an eye on us :) you've both been amazing at inspiring us all!! I've totally changed the way I look at spending over the last 5 months, couldn't have done it without you :T xx
    why am I standing on Brighton beach dressed as darth vader and breathing in a most peculier manner ALL BY MYSELF??????

    where are you all?
    Am I early?
    Am I in the wrong place?
    Is that a sit-on lawnmower parked under the pier?
    Help

    It wasn't just me who thought it was tonight then?! Had to work late but was considering saddling up the nag and galloping on down to brighton (she's very fast!) but will have a more leisurely ride down on Monday then!! I'm ashamed to say I've never watched Star Wars (Shhh!) but were there any horses in it? Or I could leave her with the donkeys on the beach for the night :) xx

    Forgot to say today was number 14!! Only one more to go, and three days to do it, keeping my fingers crossed

    Evening all, hope you've had a lovely day, it's been sunny and productive here at chez Herby with no pennies spent! Spoon can you put me down for 14 for June (can't 'member if I've already asped?) My month runs from 28th - 27th so I'm chuffed to say I've managed my first NSD of June, unless these ones don't count until first of June in which case I got another for May, off for a celebratory tipple now using the stash from the top of the fridge, well it needs to be used up hic!
