    I also had to get some motion lotion yesterday, £58!!! No wonder I got some funny looks, the abject look of horror that must have been on my face......

    No galloping pony for me I'm afraid, but maybe a rocking horse?

    Morning campers, I'm awake but not quite if you see what I mean. I'm sitting here having a lovely cup of tea viannen_106.gif and watching the rain clouds coming in..ugh!!

    Wasn't around last week as DH had a weeks holiday off work, and I was quite happily spending his money, instead of mine JC_boogie.gif So I would like to declare 8 NSD's for last week, and today :)

    Oooh just off to update my siggie, and I notice I have passed my total :)JC_boogie.gifJC_boogie.gifJC_boogie.gif

    Oh poooey it's raining - Where's the lovely sunshine from last week?d_sunny.gifd_sunny.gif Although I am happy it's not 30 degs outside like it has been for the past few days, tooo hot for me, still mustn't complain it will do all my veggies and flowers good that were getting a bit sad with just tap water. And I am not not officially going to believe the weathermen on t.v. - they said it would rain in the north NOT the south east/london. Well they got that majorly wrong didn't they..lol

    Well i did it i got to 20!:j:j:j
    Bit drastic to do your legs in every month though!!;)

    Don't know like its saved me a fortune this month!:rotfl:

    Today is a spend day as we have had to buy a new battery for the car, £60 inc fitting fitting and 3 yr guarantee so it wasn't too bad. Still i could claim it as a NSD as OH bought it ;).

    Right another day of sitting on my backside while the heavy rain comes and goes.

    woo woo....... I managed a NSD yesterday - hope you will be proud of me as I had to take my work friend to sainsburys to get the work shopping and normally I go in and shop, but I said Nope i can take you but I will sit out in the sun - so No Spend, and my lunch for Monday and Wednesday was left over stuff from the weekend and today is alunch out on the office.

    I think I might have to buy a few bits for supper tonight - but you never know I might even get in one more!

    Can't believe I got a Pony and now a nice Nana.. for my first time! Next month I need to up my targets!

    Everyone is doing so well!!

    Good morning everyone!

    Yesterday was NSD number 16 for me - unfortunately, I had a couple of unexpected necessary spends over the weekend, and I'm going out tomorrow so I wont make my pledge of 19 NSD, but it has been a tough month and I'm very pleased with the 16 I got.

    Well done everyone this month - see you all on the July thread!
