    Evening all! Well a rather unexpected NSD for me today. Was going to pop into H*mebase to look at pots with my 15% off voucher, but spoke to my mum earlier and she has one that she doesn't use that I could have, so didn't bother going in, and snared NSD #2 in the process :j

    Sadly not seen my mum today - she called earlier to say she's not feeling well and would prob call in the evening for me to pop round, but haven't heard so she's still not well :( Also means I haven't been able to give her the flowers I bought her yesterday...they are looking ok but I prob could have got some instead tomorrow had I known I wasn't going to see her.

    Bloomin cat managed to get a bird after the mouse saga - this one unfortunately didn't get away...I'm really just hoping the mouse that shot behind the washer goes back outside.. I don't want rodents nesting in the kitchen :eek:

    Hi guys

    Just 1 NSD managed so far. My usual lack of organisation means I ended up in supermarkets both yesterday and today. On the plus side hopefully have bought enough things for lunches all week to save nipping out to buy snadwiches.

    I think I like April.

    No NSD for me today, although it was a low spend of just 50p to the church collection. DD did add to it because I know it sounds a bit mean. I do put in more if I can.

    Tixy, I'm the same, not being organised and having to keep popping into supermarkets nearly every day!! Hope doing this should stop me going so often.
