    Put me down for 17 for May please Spoon - increased from 15 to 17 in April and still made it, and May has that extra day so I am sure I can make it

    Thanks for all you work sorting us all out - hope you had a great night out - I had to miss it 'cause still not feeling too well. Got home from car boot with my fruit and veg this morning without bothering with other shops, had poached eggs on toast, and went to bed - slept soundly from about 2.30 pm to 7.30 pm - felt better when I got up, but not enough to go out gallavanting - I was feeling dizzy and sickly - not ideal for a night out (that is normally the morning after!!)

    Must be something in the air 3dogs - I felt much the same today!

    Checking in for May, aiming for 10 NSDs again this month. Off to the safari park with my friend and her kiddies tomorrow (so should probably grab some sleep now!) and then off out for a pre-birthday bash as I'll be working on my actual birthday

    ... and in my attempts to make my birthday last the entire month, NSDs might be hard to come by for me, so I will need you all to keep me in check :D.

    Pregnant friend will also no longer be pregnant friend at some point this month and become mummy instead, so I'm sure baby celebrations might also tempt me into spending!

  • Morning all!

    A busy Saturday lined up for us today. I have a few spends planned as will be going to the shops and having a look around. Good luck for this month everyone.

    I'm going to sit down at some point today and work out what I'm doing for all the birthdays that happen this month. Then I'll just get cards sent etc. all on the same day. I must say that this challenge is really helping me get organised as nothing hurts as much as spending a few unplanned pounds and ruining a NSD :rotfl:

    I'd like to join in please - I've just done some budgets and it's a bit scarey, so I need to reign in my spends.

    Have no idea what how many NSDs to aim for so will do 10 for starters.

    thanks Very much
    Trying to keep in budget.

    Morning what day is it please???

    After a really expensive month last time, I am going for 16, nothing due to happen very much in May and am away for nearly a week on company CC, so should manage it.

    Going for a wee lie down now, lots of riot police on local telly, seem to be in George Square..........hmmm, not sure if I recognise those shoes and that hairy hat...........I'll just pop off to bed I think.

    Hi
    Can you put me down for 12 please this month Solventsoon, thanks for doing this! See if I can beat it this month again, though to be fair the last 2 NSD's were due to having nothing left to spend?!:o
