Well i trust you all with the key but i think i'm gonna have to beg you to put this outing off till i'm home as it sounds soooo much fun i have to be there!!!!!
Nargle your outfit sounds fab you'll fit in perfectly!!! :rotfl:
& i tell you, my poor back passage has never been the subject of so much attention :rotfl:
I wouldn't trust us lot with your house either!! Of course we must put it off until you are there, wouldn't be the same without youbut that raises the question of what are we going to do this weekend?

I'm off home to spend some time with my friend who's dad had just been diagnosed with cancer
Am sure we will enjoy a drink or two, but won't be the most lighthearted weekend i've ever had to spend money on, but she needs support & that's what friends are for....February NSD challenge 5/150 -
NSD 9 today and aiming for 10 tomorrow
this is a fab challenge
jintyb do you have pet insurance? one of my cats kept getting blockages (this is more common in male cats as their wee wee has an s bend in it), we had it flushed to the tune of £500 then he got blocked again shortly afterwards and had to have his wee wee chopped off for £700. Make sure your cat has wet food and lots of water and exercise:) if you didn't have insurance, your cat won't be covered for anything urine related now.0 -
No NSD for me today as Tuesday is my grocery shopping day. But I have decided to go for another 1 NSD before the month is out. May I revise my target please, Spoon.
Thank you!
Well done to everyone who has met their target today!

Today was NSD #21 for me
Now have 4 days left in the month, and need 2 more NSDs to meet my second revised target (and 3 for my bottle of non-alcoholical plonk).
Tomorrow will be a spend day (D/Debit, plus car booked in for service and MOT) - so I'm keeping my fingers crossed they don't need to keep the car overnight for any work, as I need Thur, Fri and Saturday to all remain spend free
Must remember to sort car insurance tomorrow, otherwise I'll have to do that on Saturday (or very early Sunday) so I can legally drive home from OHs
Need to start looking at the calendar for next month so I can figure out a realistic first target based on known spends.
Looks like I could have 6 D/Debit days (though I can't guarantee when my phone/broadband one will be taken until I get my bill in the next couple of days), plus one day of paying the window cleaner (may pay him for September at the same time) - so that wipes 7 days in the month.
Looking at the spacing of the D/Debits, I think I'll also need one additional milk/ice-cream shopping day (10 days between D/Debits in the latter half of August) - so 8 days wiped in total, without even needing to check if I have any other floating bills next monthCheryl0 -

You're right, kate, we can't possibly go and visit BDINI's back passage with our fairy lights and hot dog van without BDINI there:D:D
Thinking caps on guys, where shall we honour with our presence this weekend - BMF suggested Edinburgh in view of all the comics on this challenge:D (not sure whether she was being serious or not) or we could brave the seaside again.
Oooh, I've just realised, Buck House starts the opening season this weekend - anyone fancy a visit to London to see the Queen:D:DThe time you enjoy wasting is not wasted time

This was my new years resolution and i lurked on the boards when each month i only managed 2 or 3 NSD's - too ashamed to admit that although my target was 6 i wasnt even getting half way there.
Thanks to this thread - and making myself post - i am going to make it this month!
Just wanted to say to all the fellow NSD's you are appreciated - thanks for being patient while i try to get the hang of this

Glad you plucked up the courage to join Trinny, nearly at target now so it was worth it.
You're getting the hang of it definitely, no patience needed, you're doing great.
