    Good afternoon all x




    Think I'll bring Jeeves to Jinty's shed party, he could serve the drinks!!:D

    As Spoon and Dopey say you can never have enough hugs in a day so sending 'all' a group hug 1sm100grouphug.gif

    Best wishes
    If...x
    Great idea, if, he can shovel all the poo into jinty's compost heap as well:D:D and give us all a rest.

    Thanks for the group hug, I think we all need that at the moment

    Hello.

    I've managed 21 NSDs so far this month, but because I didn't register, I suppose they don't count. :(

    Up to you, schiff, if you'd like to join us, you're very welcome and I will add you, your 21 NSDs and your target to the front page - just let me know.

    (ok i give up i've spent ages trying to put a sunshine smiley in here but it's not working & i've lost patience.... you'll just have to imagine If!!!!) But enjoy the bit of sun i'm sending you anyway!!!


    Was so nice i managed to paint the shed as well as mow the lawn.... it's now pink & white, my neighbour laughed her head off at the colour but i love it!! :smileyhea
    So glad i declared early, as i'm shattered now & it's the only thing stopping me ringing for food, beans on toast it is then!!!
    (((((Hugs Beanielou)))))) hope you're ok?

    Can't say I've ever seen a pink and white lawn before - you obviously have a fancy mowing machine :rotfl:
    :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Am much as i love the shed not sure i'd go as far as a pink lawn!!!!
    (although with splashes it's well on it's way!!!! :rotfl:)

    Took the words out of my mouth, Cheryl. I had visions of BDINI (like the Jack of Hearts in Alice) painting the lawn pink and white stripes.

    Like the idea of a pink and white shed, bit like a chalet by the seaside:D:D

    Hi lovely NSD gang :A
    Ooops, sorry, didn’t realise I’d talked that much, must be making up for yesterday - sorry about all the posts:o:o:o.

    Everyone’s doing brilliantly, more targets falling today and lots more NSDs, keep going, nearly there now:j:j

    Targets met:
    LuckyBiscuit: :j well done, 20 NSDs are now yours, target no 2 made and exceeded now -that’s brilliant.:j Little penguin is now yours and the tropical island as you’re over your target.:j
    Great news about DH, DD and the shopping - that’s definitely a result:T
    Webitha: :j yay, well done, 15 NSDs done and dusted and your target met, woohoo indeed. :j Panda is ambling his way over to you now (he’s a bit tired with all this somersaulting and tumbling now;)).
    Do you want to try for an increase or stick on 15 now?

    Well done to:
    :jteenyweenyspender: hi and welcome back, missed you. Well done for getting to no 10, you’re doing brilliantly. Hope the house move went well and that the new laptop is working OK. :)
    :jjintyb: well done for no 12, you are definitely getting there. Glad you enjoyed your chill day yesterday and hope you had a good lunch and lovely long natter with your friend today:)
    :jchris81418: well done for no 16, 3 more to get now, keep going. Loving the debt busting mood:T....
    :jslowlyfading: well done for no 13, you’re doing brilliantly, and no doubt still smiling:D
    :jlosingpatience: well done for no 5, 2 more to get now, keep going:)
    :jpure dead dopey: well done for no 14, one more left now, nearly there
    Your secretary really is a pain in the bum:(, I was right first time!
    :jBDINI: well done for no 11, you’re doing brilliantly. Pass me some of your sunshine, will you?:cool:
    :jSmilerwoman: well done for no 8, you’re doing brilliantly, especially for resisting the doughnuts;)
    :jAngyles: well done for no 11, double figures is good. You can do it, keep going:)
    :j3Dogs: well done for no 16, loving the auction bargains. Fingers crossed for Thursday, your penguin is waiting patiently:)
    :jbeanielou: well done for no 9, you’re doing brilliantly. Take care, hope you’re OK:)
    :jNargle: well done for no 6, halfway there now. You’ll probably find you still feed the cat anyway, so he gets double rations;)...
    :jcw18: well done for no 15 and for resisting the urge to buy tat. Great run this morning, you really are improving:T
    :jkatholicos: well done for no 12, you’re doing brilliantly, only 2 more to get now:)
    :jSoma: well done for your 3 in a row taking you to no 12, you’re doing brilliantly. Fingers crossed for the remaining 3:)
    :jmonstermoo: well done for no 7, you’re doing brilliantly, keep going:)

    :jAllieBallie: well done for no 10, double figures is great. 2 more to get now, keep going.
    Enjoy the show tomorrow (you lost me totally in your debate with yourself:rotfl:)

    And hello to:
    boultdj: hope the shopping goes OK today and thanks for the hugs:T, think a few of us need them at the moment
    Keiss 21: good news about the raspberries, I don’t think you really need that much compost! And we’re probably safer with the small telescope really:rotfl:..
    :eek::eek:to the cost of the bus pass - are you buying the bus as well??
    Looloo: well done this month, glad you’ve realised that you can do this and that it’s helping - that great news.:T
    Will increase your target to 12 now, good luck
    Tamrin: hope the shopping wasn’t too bad, you’ll get some extra NSDs I’m sure, 6 days left in August, plenty of time left:)
    Hannah_10: fingers crossed for tomorrow:)

    No 19 done and dusted here today:j, grocery shopping tomorrow (groan:() so no 20 (and my panda) will have to wait until Friday

    Good morning all,
    Just catching up with you all - a lot of chat !
    Beanielou - sorry you're feeling a bit down - remember we're all here if you need to let off steam!

    Enjoyed my lunch yesterday, it was good to catch up with my pal.
    Today I'm starting a new knittiing project, I'm doing a mohair scarf which I will put away for Christmas pressie for one of my nieces. I'm going to try and do a few HM things for gifts this year.
    I'm going for another NSD today, should manage it as I've no plans to go anywhere today.

    Have a lovely day everyone:)


    you will always be rich enough to be generous.

    Morning all

    well I hope you might be a bit proud of me, driving in I was thinking... Mmmm i could really do with a "nice" coffee and a cheese and ham crossiant.... and as I got paid yesterday I thought... yeah why not. I was in earlier enough to go to the shop and cofffee bar... but as I got out of the car I thought OMG so you are going to spend nearly £5!!!!!!!

    So I just came up to the office and made my own "nice" coffee (in fact it must have been very nice as one of the boys said it looked like the one you get in St*rb&cks) and toast! so NS for me! I have lunch and Mr Looloo is sorting out supper........... so there you go! All good - just shows WILLPOWER!

    Hope everyone is ok today!

    xx

    Well done on talking yourself out of the urge to spend Sunnylooloo :T
    cw18: Great run this morning, you really are improving:T
    Felt great while out doing the run, as rarely had any trouble breathing (think that was a first for me), and felt brilliant all day/evening :D

    But I'm paying for it today !!! Didn't hear 7:30am alarm, and eventually woke up around 9am..... just as well I'm not due in work until 1pm ;)

    And my legs are really stiff at the moment, so it looks like I'll almost certainly be giving running club a miss tonight (it isn't a route I fancied anyway - it's a straight out and back which I don't see the point in, I'd much rather do a circular as you can't bottle out and turn back early)
    No 19 done and dusted here today:j
    well done Spoon :T You really are putting me to shame this month :o

    Thanks Cheryl

    Ugh you put me to shame with your running (although I must point out that I was not engineered to run!) Sorry you feeling a bit stiff though.
