    :hello:

    Hi all NSDers xx

    Beanie - I hope you are feeling better

    tattooed_lady and kerry - hope you are feeling better soon x

    Littlemiss - Glad all teats okay. :eek: @ taking sample

    Rock Cake- Hope you are having a lovely day and Happy Birthday _party_

    Coming in to report that I got to number 5 yesterday :j. Was too tired to come in yesterday and have a hell of a week next week with two double shifts :(, probably am working too hard at the minute but there will be no overtime from next month so am really trying to pay off what I can from the credit cards so I won't struggle to much after that. next month will be the first time I haven't had any overtime since the paycut last year so am dreading it really:(, mind you it will be nice to get proper rest days :). I also have some time off the week after so am going to try to use that constructively an dhopefully not spend anything as well.

    Won't be an NSD today as I'm off to get the local paper as Thursdays is jobs day so you never know LOL, so will maybe get petrol too so I don't lose a day tomorrow.

    Well done all on the NSDs clocking up :T

    Back soon

    :hello:

    DFD Need to August 2027 :(

    NSD March 15/20

    My problem is that I love it too much, I love mooching round the clothes and buying loadsa fatty foods that I don't need and "ooo a radio/ipod dock/alarm - I want it, I want it!" The temptation is too high! Aldi just doesn't have the same appeal, but at least I don't spend as much when I go!

    My main annoyance with MrT is that they have started being very very sneaky with their pricings (maybe they always have been but I haven't been looking!) - bigger packs of stuff are more expensive per item than smaller packs! It sends me barmy! Takes me hours do a shop cos I'm constantly getting calculator out and working out best deal :rotfl:

    Think I should definately join the "I hate Tatco" club!! JCG x

    You're very welcome to join, JCG, membership's free:D

    Agree re the pricing, I spend ages peering at writing about a millimetre high trying to work out how much different pack sizes are per kg.. I could go on......

    Maybe I should start an "I hate Tatco" thread on here:rotfl::rotfl:



    BDINI, I've been very naughty over the last couple of days, no NSDs for me:o:o:o (fine example I'm setting, eh??). I can feel a soggy paintbrush coming my way very soon if I keep this up.


    I'm still reeling from the shock of how much it cost me to fill up my small car this morning:eek::eek:


    Hugs to anyone who's feeling poorly, fed up, down in the dumps or just cheesed off with life in general.

    Iggy has had his check up and I just need to take a wee sample in for a final check and then thats it :D (do not ask how I have to do this *shudder* )
    I have had a small spend today...I didn't realise his consultation was free, but had to pay for a pipette, tube etc....

    Great news about Iggy, LMH, but :eek::eek::eek: to the sample.

    Good luck is all I can say x

    Not an NSD today but it was worth it. I bought the groupon deal for money to spend at asos.com ... thought I missed it yesterday but it was still there today. Def worth it for me as I buy loads of stuff there so I'm very happy that I got it.

    Thanks Cheryl - mine's an online account too, but I only submit readings when they ask me to, ie once a quarter. Do you mean you submit every month, thereby generating a monthly bill? Sorry, if Im being dense!:o
    I was generating bills every 28 days. But I stopped in November (extra hours at work meaning trying to read an external meter in the dark and rain put me off ;)), so the next wasn't until they asked me to do so in Feb.

    Need to check when I actually raised bills last year, and try and remember to do my next one to being myself back in synch (means I can them compare year-on-year as to how my useage has gone a lot more accurately - it just happened my last bill exactly matched an 85 day period from 12 months earlier, and as such had a strong case for them not to increase my payments)
