    Spent the weekend enjoying the lovely weather (especially as I missed it last week being in bed with the flu!) so didn't even have a chance to catch up on all the posts. Looks like loads more targets being hit by everyone. NSD No. 23 for me yesterday. Today was a spend day as had quite a few birthday cards/pressies to purchase. I'm hoping to get the remaining two days of the month as NSD's but lets see how disciplined I can be!

    Hope everyone is enjoyed the lovely weather. Ciao for now.

    Nargleblast end of term report.

    Maths - adept at number crunching, but not always accurate at juggling figures.

    English - understands and translates the term NSD to mean No spendy Dosh, but unable to always apply the principle to practice.

    History - used to have money once upon a time.

    Geography - Familiar with local surroundings, all too skilfull at navigating way to local shop.

    Food technology - Must understand that a 6 pack of Cornettos from the local shop is no substitute for a home made yoghourt in the fridge.

    Music - knows the words and music to Abba's "Money money money" and "Money makes the world go around" from the musical Cabaret.

    Science - Understands the shrinking pocket principle all too well.

    PE - Fairly skilled at ducking and diving but has allowed domestic problems to take her eye off the ball.

    IT - sadly all too skilled at operating cash machines.

    Summary - must try harder next term.


    Put me down for 10 in July Spoon!


    Loving this :rotfl:
