    Hello All

    Declaring NSD 2 early today.

    I have a packed lunch, and no need to get petrol. purse is at home, so couldnt spend if i wanted to.

    We have run out of cheese, but am going to put of spending until Friday, so planning for tomorrow to be a NSD too.

    OH puts grated cheese on everything if i let him:eek: which means we get through a huge block per month!!!! so maybe "running out" a bit more often, might help him to break the habit.

    Have a good day all!

    Declaring today as NSD no 2....definitely!!

    Been making yet more jam again today, this time, fruits (black & redcurrants, cherries too) from the freezer which we picked & froze just before going on holiday.

    Don't really like cherry jam, but will be giving it away as Christmas presents....very MSE!!

    Off to have a shower now, working at 4 today.

    Enjoy the rest of the soggy day!
