    I've had another NSD Monday and today. Would of had one yesterday but had to buy a new tyre as I had a blow out on Monday on my way home from work:( £56 for a new tyre, gutted.

    But on the good note I've done 6 NSD's this month so far. Not too far from my target :)

    Yaaay!!! NSD 4!!! :) I did quite an effort since I have been out and about the whole day!!! :D Took my lunch and all the coffees plus snacks from home. Never did that before! I usually made one thing or the other but always had something from machines/cantine/etc.

    Chuffed!! :D

    Evening all! Just a quick stop by for me - I'm Stateside atm and about to go for dinner (even though my laptop clock says 11.25pm and I could cheerfully go to sleep - despite actually getting quite a good sleep on the plane over). One the plus side I can declare another NSD so that takes me into double figures and 10 NSD :j

    Will try and catch up on the posts tomorrow - eyes a bit sore and tired atm. Night all xxx

    Another NSD for me today. Not sure how many now. Thought I'd reached target but it says 10 on front page. In which case this is no.11. Don't mind cos gonna get to target.

    Hi dmb:hello:
    You have made your target.. I just ran out of steam yesterday after two mammoth posts. You have a lovely shiny total of 12 NSDs and a prize - have a look.

    So you now have 13, would you like to try for another target? Go on... you know you want to really:D:D

    Not an NSD for me today, I know it's naughty but am going to the pub to watch the football. It's come at the right time tonight as i feel like i could do with some company!
    As i was spending i got some milk on way home from work, was a toughie as went to the corner shop which was i nearly always went for my cigs, was a bit naughty & bought a packet of chocolate buttons, had a couple & the craving to smoke went away, so figured 50p instead of £3 was good & i was spending anyway & i've saved the rest of the chocolate for future emergency moments!!

    Right, mine's a pint please :beer:

    Well done ICDI (that's your new name now, courtesy of jinty:D) for resisting the ciggies. Keep going, you can, and will, do this (otherwise you'll have jinty and I hunting you down:D:D).

    Hope you enjoyed the company tonight, nothing wrong with that at all.

    Take care, you're doing brilliantly:T:T:T
