    Oh, I'm sooo behind with this thread! No NSDs to declare I'm afraid so I'm still on 4, but just a tiny ebay spend today so it has been a very LSD.

    I've got to get a few bits for the garden tomorrow, hope I'll have a NSD on Mon.

    Have a good weekend all x

    I am aiming for number 7 tomorrow as I have no plans to go out anywhere, just tackle the ironing mountain, plant up the hanging baskets, plant on the veggie plants into bigger pots, make a couple of cakes for the week, do Sunday lunch, and it goes on and on and on.......who said Sunday is a day of rest?

    Hi lovely NSD gang :A
    Hope everyone’s enjoying their weekend. NSDs still rolling in - everyone is doing really well this month. We’re going to deserve our night out in Brighton at the end of the month:j

    Well done to:
    positivelypurple: :jwell done for nos 2 and 3:j - you're on a roll now! Keeping my fingers crossed for lots more for you over the next couple of weeks.
    Yes, May is really flying by - no idea where it’s disappeared to!:(
    anonymoose: liking your style - “I haven’t got any cash on me” is a brilliant line to use!!;)
    :jWell done for no 6 - as you say, halfway there now - keep going!!:)
    BigMumma: well done for no 10:j - over halfway now - yay!!
    Hope you managed to get loads of stuff done today:)
    skaps: :jwell done for no 7 - brilliant! Keep going, nearly halfway there now
    Great news on the job front!:T
    karenccs67: :jwell done for no 6, you’re doing great, keep going.
    Like the idea of making flowers for your cake - hope it turns out brilliantly - could we see a picture of it when it’s finished - that would be lovely. :) Hope you enjoyed Ace of Cakes - whatever that is?
    Keiss 21: well done for no 9:j - you’re doing brilliantly and have every right to be pleased with yourself. :)
    Like you, I have to learn to curb my spending on the days I buy things, but that’s going to be a longer process I think..
    You’ve been really busy with your gardening - a great selection of vegetables there - hope you manage the keep the pigeons at bay;)
    3Dogs: :jwell done for no 9 - over halfway now - that’s brilliant!
    Great news on the SW membership, hope you manage to get that organised - would be great!;)
    Changingme: hi, good to see you back again and well done for no 12:j - you are doing brilliantly.
    Hope next week is a bit less hectic for you:)
    katenut: another one doing brilliantly -:j well done for no 8, over halfway now, keep going!:)
    slowlyfading: hope the haircut went well and you enjoyed being pampered.;)
    Big cheer for your lovely mum, what a superstar, and well done to you for no 10:j - brilliant!
    Surfbabe: :jwell done for no 6 - well over halfway now - keep going!:)
    Dorastar: well done for no 8 :j- brilliant - keep going
    So sorry you’re not feeling well today, hope you’re on the mend after a day of rest:)

    And hello to everyone else:
    cw18: hope the shopping trip went well today - you are so organised, it really puts me to shame.;)
    boultdj: hope you enjoyed the party and that you managed to get your birthday present shopping all done and dusted:)
    pure dead dopey: really hope you’re feeling a bit better now - drunk navvie with adenoidal problems is not a good way to go really:(. Like the sound of the Darth Vadar heavy breathing - those bikers on Brighton beach won’t know what’s hit them:eek:
    Flickering Ember: liking the positive attitude for Sunday - go for it!!:)
    TheBees: if you want rain - there’s plenty here.... I’m feeling a bit like your poor tomato plants - in serious need of some sunshine.:(
    Hope the shopping trip went OK today - another one sounding very organised:)
    honey: hi, good to see you again - not wise to turn your back on this thread, it has a life of its own!!:eek:
    Well done for LSD today - much better than a mega-spend day, happy shopping for the garden tomorrow and fingers crossed for no 5 on Monday:)
    Nargle: I’m feeling quite faint looking at the amount of stuff you’re intending to get through tomorrow.:eek: No such thing as a day of rest any longer, unfortunately:(. Good luck, hope you manage to get through everything.

    Reporting another NSD for me today, taking me to the dizzy heights of no 12:j:j - so very pleased with myself today for avoiding those nasty tempting shops;).

    Off to do my usual update now, see you all tomorrow.

    'night all
