    My NSD floated away with the fairies today.
    Just paid coddy's (DS1) uniform for cadets. To be fair he's had the money for about two months, and he didn't spend it :eek: so proud of him. But sadly the money has gone to the CO now. So i'm £15 down.

    Roll on tomorrow, NSD here we come!

    Another for me today (the benefit of working through lunch is no opportunity for going near the shops) so total for the month is 2 NSDs please

    :(

    Thought I'd managed an NSD today, but just checked my bank account and I've been thwarted by a D/Debit !!! I'd totally forgotten that my phone & b/band provider had notified me they'll now take payment a lot sooner after the bill is issued, which means the D/Debit will be going out earlier in the month - and there's no longer any chance of it co-inciding with another one to reduce my number of spend days :mad:

    jinty - the Shaolin Warriors are Chinese Kung-Fun monks (well, that's what they were originally). They do a brilliant martial arts, athletic, balletic type of show, some of it really is quite breathtaking. There are some videos on uTube if you want to have a look.

    Just booked our tickets Spoony :j - £45 for the two of them but it's so local it beats taking the train into London. I think OH might pay for them too...if I'm a good girl ;)
