    Good morning everyone! :wave:
    :j:jchris81418 - for no 20, you are indeed on a mini-roll, that’s brilliant! Fingers crossed for lots more

    Thanks Spoon! :D
    22 NSD'S for me now; yes I am sad and have no life. :o

    Not sad at all! Rather a pioneer and leader in collecting NSDs! You, together with Spoon, Beanie, are leading the NSD table this month, so see yourself as a motivator and inspirational!! :T

    And you are certainly motivating me to keep up with you guys - I managed to collect NSD number 21 yesterday; today, however, will definitely be a spend day as a food shop is now overdue! :eek:

    SF - sorry to hear you're feeling down. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you on the job front. fingers_crossed.gif

    Nargle - ooh! A new(ish) car! OH and I would love one of those, ours is falling apart, very rattley, freezing cold in the winter and boiling hot in the summer ... being able to afford a new(ish) car is a long way off for us, so we may just have to live our new car day-dreams through you instead! :rotfl:

    Have a good day everyone, and have fun catching those NSDs! chicken1.gif

  • Morning all - aiming for NSD 3 today, I have a prepaid prescription thing so won't need to pay for my antibiotics (if they give me them) and I have stuff in for dinner and lunch so no need to go to supermarket. Am trying desperately to save my last pennies for Fridays antics for housemates birthday... the more I spend now, the less I have for then.

    I'm declaring NSD 13 today as I'm not going out anywhere as its last day of revision today before exam day tomorrow

    Tomorrow is little treat day with lunch out after the exam in the not so cheap student rec! Fri is dentist day and Sat out to meet mum for lunch as not seen her for a month.

    Thurs/Fri/Sat spend days aiming for Sun/Mon/Tues NSDs so will come in on either 15 or 16 for May

    Afternoon everyone :wave:

    Nargle - I hope the new car works out better than the last. I know how you feel, I've spent more on my car this month than what's it worth!

    Reporting NSD 11 for yesterday, had an exam at college which I passed yeay! Only one left this year then start final year of course in Aug :D sooo hoping that this will lead to a fancypants well paid job, I would love to have some disposable income!
