Put me down for 14 NSD. I finished Xmas shopping in November. I took advantage of all the sales and evening shopping events in shops like Boots and Body Shop. I even got some birthday presents for next year too!

Hello everybody!
Spoon, can you put me down for 10 again this month please? And yesterday I was house bound with the mother of all head colds, so clocked NSD no. 1 for the month too (silver lining then I guess)
BTW Spoony - I really like dates (the dried fruit kind!) at any time of year!

Hello everyone!
I've been a busy bee the last few days, so I hadn't got round to joining the thread, but I'm now up to speed after what seems like hours catching up and reading the last 6 pages! Wow!
Anyway, hello to all the regulars and welcome to the newbies, and of course - congrats too to Peaches with Isobelle!
Spoon - this month I'd like to pledge my lucky 19 NSDs again please, and I'll go for my regular 6 NSDs in a row in the mini challenge.
So far, I've clocked up 1 NSD, that was yesterday; and fingers crossed that I'll clock up another 1 today!
Good luck for the month everyone - take care and wrap up warm!:money: Proud to [STRIKE]be dealing with[/STRIKE] have dealt with my debts! :money:

Welcome back, will add you to the front page later. You're the first person I've "met" who likes dates.. seriously. Everyone else I know buys them because they're a Christmas thing but they end up throwing them out in June:D:D
