    Hi lovely NSD gang :A
    Lots of NSDs rolling in again, well done everyone:j
    Daisy seems to have gone down well. She’s available for hire at very reasonable rates, she’ll keep your grass in order and provide you with lots of free milk:rotfl:

    Well done to:
    :jjintyb: well done for no 4 and glad you’re back to your normal cheerful self today.
    Hope you have a lovely evening tonight. What colour nail polish did you get - I love nail polish and trying out different colours
    :jhoney: yay.... off the starting blocks, that’s brilliant. Fingers crossed for the weekend and hope the decorating goes OK
    :jnzseries1: yay to no 2, well done, told you this NSD lark was easy.... Hope you found your way out of the maze today
    :jgettingthereslowly: yay to no 2 - wooo hooo indeed, well done
    :jTMVen: yay to no 4 - you’re doing great.
    Love the tale of OH and the bottle of cider... Have a great weekend in Bristol
    Update: and no 5 today.. yum to the chinese, hope you enjoyed it!
    :jWee_Jo: yay to no 2, and to your lovely Mum taking you out for a meal last night. Strange how the computer starts moving around after a couple of glasses of wine....
    Update: and well done for no 3, you’re on a roll now, keep going
    :jCraigLoans: yay to no 2, you’re doing great. Fingers crossed for no 3 over the weekend
    :jTrinny: yay to no 4, you’re doing brilliantly, loving the organised shopping.
    Have a great weekend
    :jBroken hearted: yay to no 4, you’re doing brilliantly as well, loving the underspends on your spendy days.
    :jelfen: yay to no 5, you’ve had a great start to the month, but sorry you’re not well, that’s not nice
    :jSoma: like the sound of the shopping - some great bargains there, not surprised you’re chuffed.. and well done for no 3, that’s brilliant
    :jboultdj: yay to no 4... falling asleep has some benefits. Hope today’s spendy day hasn’t been too painful
    :jBL: yay to no 2, you’re doing great, keep going. Hope the car isn’t too expensive
    :jBDINI: yay to no 3, that’s brilliant. Well done for not going to the works do, there’s too much pressure to do things we don’t want to do and conform for the sake of it, good for you for being independent enough to not do that now. We’ll make up for it tomorrow night anyway. Hope the kitchen is looking better now. Ahhh..... now I know what the bin bags are for
    :jWee Pilsbury: yay to no 4, you’re doing brilliantly. Glad you’re enjoying the challenge. Fingers crossed for Sunday
    :jjwil: yay to no 3, that’s brilliant. Keep going and have a great weekend
    :jNargle: fingers crossed for today. Got my gallon of cider ready for tomorrow night, all stowed away in the tardis. Managed to get rid of the smell of cat pee finally, had to leave all the doors and windows open for the past week. Trip round the UK planned again, it’s a bit cold for broomsticks, donkeys and camels
    Yay to no 2 today, that’s brilliant, and fingers crossed for tomorrow. We’ll keep goading the chavs until you arrive, they should be in fighting mode by then
    :jTamrin: yay to no 3, that’s brilliant. Hoping Daisy helps with your milk requirements
    :jBigMumma: yay to no 3, doing great as always
    :jkerri gt: yay to no 3, you’re doing brilliantly - unexpected NSDs are always the best!
    Enjoy your evening tomorrow - nice being in demand. And great news about the Te$co points
    :jmrsinvisible: yay to no 4, loving the food swapping, that’s brilliant. Hope we see you tomorrow up the back passage
    :jJES_F1: yay to no 4, you’re doing brilliantly
    :jwebitha: yay to no 5.. woohoo indeed, you’re doing brilliantly
    :jmicron: yay to no 5, you’re doing brilliantly, keep going
    :jifwishes: and yay to no 3 for you, that’s brilliant, keep going
    :jSequeena: no 2 - that’s brilliant, hope you found it a bit easier than no 1. Keep going

    And hello to:
    cw18: my back lawn sounds just like yours, I’m thinking of getting a goat. Bloomin’ rain and warm temperatures, everything’s growing at a rate of knots
    Oh dear.... more whoopsies ruining your NSDs... but great bargains again:T
    pure dead dopey: oh nooooooooooo...... only 15 tins of tomatoes left:eek::eek:. Oh dear, spendy day today.....
    Enjoy your afternoon out tomorrow, see you in the back alley - are you bringing Hubert and the aliens?
    true27: fingers crossed for no 2 today. I’m feeling slightly nauseous at the idea of zipwiring off a big cliff :eek:- think you were very brave.
    Hope DS is OK
    GeorgieFTB: fingers crossed for today:)
    kezlou: fingers crossed for today, hope the plan worked out. Yep, cold and wet here as well:(, come back summer.... please.

    Morning everyone,

    Had a wonderful night last night, great food and a good laugh with the family for my sisters silver wedding.
    In the end I got them a rose for their garden ( Silver Wedding, obviously) a nice wee wind chime that says "and they lived happily ever after" plus a little funny ornament from a range called Old Coots and it's called "still the sexy couple" Will try to post a pic. She loved it!!BwW()YQ!2k~$(KGrHqEOKi8Ev-20F36UBMIjGb0zqg~~_35.JPG

    Not sure what Im up to today, might just take it easy with my knitting!

    Have a lovely day everyone:)


    you will always be rich enough to be generous.

    Sorry folks have been away, have only managed 1 nsd this month so far and doubt I'll be able to do many as I'm on holiday all month. Can you put me down for 7 please Spoony.

    Hope everyone is fine and dandy. How are the heffalumps?:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
  • Morning All, welcome Peaches, we're very flexible here, if slightly mad, but do come in and join us.

    OK am about to start to get ready to go out with OH but will have my chavtastic togs in my bag for a quick change, will probably need help anyway with the burberry stilettos, don't normally do stilettos, so that will be me, top to toe burberry (except my cap which is still going to be hanging around left buttock. This may all take some time, let me tell you! Even Hubert has a burberry saddle!, the aliens just wanted to stay green, will be a few matching faces later on I imagine........
    Thanks Spoon, a lift would be good, we were just going to clipclop down but the Tardis is faster and I promise Hubert will not poop. Let's try to have a poo free outing folks, lets concentrate really hard and leave the shovel behind this time, they don't come in burberry.

    See you all later........
    More than Two Years in

    Doing it the Niddy way:j:j:j
