Hi all

Today was NSD 21 so only one more for my banana!!

Thanks Spoon for updating my total but i'm a little sad as i was looking forward to my pink elephant but will settle for a dancing banana later this weekend.

(but with so many of us hitting targets and exceeding them i'm really impressed with how you manage to keep up with everything, especially at 2am when it should be )

Oh dear, I really did have a bad day yesterday:(:(:(:(

Sorry pp, I've added your dancing elephant now, am I forgiven?

I would have said that I function better at 2am than at 9am but, given that I forgot 2 elephants yesterday, that seems not to be the case:o:o:o:o:o:o

"flies past an incredulous cow" who is really Solvent Soon who has chosen a novel form of transport to join the convoy to Brighton........

Ten four good buddies, signing off now!

You rumbled my disguise, Nargle....... keep having to interrupt the journey to feed the cow more grass to act as propellant:rotfl::rotfl:

Will be there before Monday, I hope, to partake of the homebrew and whoopsied sarnies katenut is offering:j:j. Got a bottle of vodka, some baguettes and cheese with me, hoping they'll still be OK by Monday (or that I'm still sober enough to steer the cow to Brighton:o)

Hi lovely NSD gang :A
Oops, sorry about the number of posts - think I got a bit carried away:o

Might not be here for the rest of the weekend - pdd and katenut are firmly established under Brighton pier with homebrew and whoopsied sarnies, I can feel the pull already and we’re not even supposed to be there until Monday:j

Targets met today:
boultdj : :jwell done - target no 2 - that’s fantastic.:j You are now the proud owner of 18 NSDs and, more importantly, of course, a dancing pink elephant and a dancing banana. What more could you possibly want?

And hello to everyone else:
jintyb : ahhhh - thanks, feeling much better now:A... Hope the knitting went OK today?
:eek: to NSD being lost today - what a pain.
With being on holiday, you’ve done really well this month, so if you don’t make your target it’s not really an issue as you’ve made it every other month.:)
Oooh, I see you’ve increased your target for June - brilliant!
Dorastar : hoping dentist and hairdresser spends weren’t too painful after the garage episode.:( Fingers crossed for another 2 before month end
Nargle : after the melodrama of your awards speech when you outdid Kate Winslet, I think you deserved a couple of HGSGSDs.
Wombles - there weren’t any Wombles in Star Wars - were there??:eek:
BDINI: :wave:hi and welcome back, glad you had a brilliant week away - you needed a break and a treat, I think.
We’ll definitely need the hip flask on Monday to thaw pdd out - it’s a bit chilly in Brighton now.:eek: Fingers crossed for your final NSD
Herby: you can organise your months exactly as you want them, no problem at all. I haven’t started the June thread yet, but I will add your new NSDs to the new thread and give you a celebratory ..... as well then. Is that OK?:)

And I managed another NSD today as well (well, can't spend much stuck on the back of a flying cow trying to get to Brighton before pdd and katetnut drink all the booze:rotfl:), so well on the way to my dancing banana as well:j

Off to update the front page now, as usual, so see you all tomorrow:A

Good morning all, will declare an early number 11 as I am going nowhere today! (Apart from joining the convoy to Brighton in a Womble suit on a motorbike, but that's another story.) Only two days to go to the end of the month, keep at it, guys, we can hack this no spend business!

missylaney

Managed 9/10 yesterday and should get my target tomorrow - by the skin of my teeth!

chris81418

Yesterday took me up to 16 NSD! I'm going to keep my head down this weekend in an effort to reach my target of 19 NSD.

Enjoy the start of the bank holiday weekend everyone!

jet77

We're off for a long walk with DD's this morning and then baking cakes and biscuits this afternoon to try and keep us busy and away from spending!! All cards/cash will be left in house x

elfen

Am going to declare early again for NSD no.16 I don't need to go anywhere, or do anything, and it's raining.

Hello All

I am declaring 6 NSD's for this month - target was seven, but not too stressed about it - few months ago, couldnt even manage 4 in a month.

Going for 7 again this month, think i might just manage it - finally getting the hang of this i hope

Yesterday wasnt an NSD - Not sure in fact where all the money went!!! Oh well.

Today **should** be though, I have lots of work to do over the weekend and we may do some free things like going to the British Library and the gym (not really free, but you know!). Anyway will update later...
