    Not sure. First off I'm a bloke. Are blokes allowed? I followed someone onto here actually Ooooooh..whoooooo medium-smiley-028.gif..you gotta tell us now! As for whetting my appetite, any gathering that could consist of countless beautiful girls is bound to be attractive, so yes. But won't you want to talk about things that I shouldn't listen to? You tell us what you don't want to talk about & we'll warn you if it's coming up in conversation any time soon ;)....

    Welcome aboard m'boy; I can see you'll fit right in!
    Seeing as we're doing the Miss World bit I like motors that sound like a solid piece of machinery as opposed to a sewing machine with adenoids, an entertaining game of most sports with little allegiance to particular strip & healthy discussion. The first steers me toward classic motors courtesy of the magic talking box, the second hardly a usual occurrence so just as well there's more than enough of my third choice on these boards :p

    Aww, bless..I'm sure you don't look a day over 12 hands IWWH :rotfl:I never got asked my age until just after my 18th & went to see an X film :doh:

    While looking for some new smilies I found one that is appropriate for 3Dogs latest comment re:moi; what do you think? action-smiley-037.gif ....or does it look like I've got wind laughing-smiley-004.gif

    Spose I ought to get back on topic :whistle: No 8 for yesterday but today was a spendy & I've a feeling in me water that tomorrow will be too. I'm also considering taking fresh fruit out of the equation, cuz the blummin stuff is not keeping at all well angry-smiley-008.gif Either the growers are forcing it too quickly or it is stored too long before reaching the shops, but I'm fed up of getting three days on & putrid plums where flavoursome fruit should be :mad:

    Chap came on Saturday to see what needed doing re:cooker hood. We still haven't had a quote from him though. :(
    Almost finished sanding/cleaning the unit today....took 5 hours! :eek:
    ....tons of ancient sticky-backed plastic which didn't want to come off, and a top coat of paint which did! :mad:, not to mention loads of drip marks to sand away. I had to stop early as I had to pick up DS2 from rugby training, too tired and achey to finish it tonight.
    :mad::mad: Why do the supposedly simple jobs always end up taking forever???? Sounds like you had a good day tho, well done you!!! :D
    I cocked up the boxing in tonight :mad::mad: so finally gave up at 8.30 to have a think about how fix it tomorrow

    Finally good news though today was NSD 5 :j:j
    Am hoping for the same again tomorrow!!

    I see that she has already replied to this - but I must refer you to her exploits with a young policeman in Edinburgh, and we won't talk about Wombledon & that [STRIKE]aged rocker[/STRIKE] young wrinkly man

    Today is not a no spend day, but only £1.49 for spuds, my cuz took me out for the afternoon, (well she was going to [EMAIL="C@rrys"]C@rrys[/EMAIL] to take back her new but faulty microwave and needed back-up) so she treated me to afternoon tea with scones and c a k e which was lovely. The journey was over an hour each way, so we had time to talk about her mam who died afortnight ago and about her dad and how he was coping. She said it had helped her so I'm glad we did it.
  • Hi fellow non-spendy peeps, I'm struggling at the moment no more NSDs to report. Keep up the good work though everyone. Hoping my next one will be Saturday, all being well :D

    Grrr me too, bang goes tomorrow's NSD, I reeeally can't survive 8 hours of work without my cuppas, if I am lucky I can probably squeeze 2 cuppas out of what's left...as long as Mr Candyapple doesn't forget and quaff it all with his cereal.

    Also sat here freezing my !!! off, its august and it feels like winter its 15 degrees in here, but no i will not put the heating on. Instead the big cardie is coming out once again.

    Yep Kez I've been feeling the same today, we had 3 seasons in about 1 hour. The big fluffy cardi and fluffy bedsocks were out in force today, I was determined the heating wasn't going on in August

  • Evening all :) I am at NSD #5 now. I nearly caved in with a tesc* basket online (had £120 of plastic sh**e I do not need in there) When I got to the checkout I thought hmmm extra stuff + 750 loyalty points or months of heavy interest on my CC...I wisely closed down the page instead :j I am soooo proud of me.
    Tomorrow will be spendy as my 2 boys are getting their hair cut in the morning. However then I pick up a box of free books from FC so get some freebie treats for me then I need bread too but have decided to make it instead of buying as a summer hols 'activity' with the kids :D
