    Good morning all!

    After a long run of spend days, I captured #9 yesterday!
    I had my hot stones massage and it was absolutley wonderful! I couldnt believe how many knots and bumps needed straightening out! My back feels terrific!
    I'm going back next week for a facial and eyebrow trim - £17 for both! They use "good" products too, so I'm gonna be gorgeous! ;)
    Today I'm thinking of going to M&S for a bit of a shop BUT it may still be a NSD as I have a lot of Vouchers to use . I've kept them since Christmas (sorry, NARGLE).

    Spoon - here's a wee pressie for you - I love all flowers, freesias th_freesias_bouquet.jpgare gorgeous!


    Have a lovely day everyone:)

    Ahhh, jinty, thanks for the freesias, they're beautiful:A. I can smell them from here. I shall treat myself to some when I go shopping tomorrow, that's decided me:D

    Glad the massage went well:T and you are indeed going to be gorgeous after all those treatments:D

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

    Well if you're sad and have no life, PBS, most of us here are the same, so join the gang:D

    Seriously, well done, just think of all the money you've saved this month:T:T:T:T

    No NSD for me as my shopping is being delivered and I got the materials for my OU course. Got an email telling me I had funding so woohoo!

    Woohoooo elfen, that's brilliant:T:T
    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

    Good luck tomorrow, fedupandskint, fingers crossed for you:A
    Afternoon everyone :wave:
    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!

    Well done jaffacakegal, that's brilliant.:j:j Fingers crossed for the last one now

    Good morning everyone! :wave:

    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

    Thanks, Chris. I'm with beanie, though, I don't feel very motivational at all, just desperate to pay off my CC bill - getting there though!!!!
    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.

    Hope you manged to get the antibiotics, psychopathbabble, and are feeling a bit better ((((hugs)))) x

    YAY jinty, you got there!!!!!:j:j:j Well done on the shopping, you'll have to show off your new look at our next outing:D
    :) The time you enjoy wasting is not wasted time :)

    Evening all! Well my day started off with me clearing up a pile of cat sick from our living room floor, my laptop refusing to load anywhere past the start screen at work for over 30mins (then took another 15 to actually load properly), and my ipod coming up with a corrupt error message.... by 10.30 I was thinking I really shouldn't have bothered getting up. I then came home to find our little sh*t of a cat has caught yet another bird, a tiny chick this time - still with it's yellow feathers, it had either been pushed out of it's nest or she raided the nest for it :( no wonder the blackbirds are busy skwaking at her right now :mad:

    Still...the day has taken a turn for the better as I can now announce NSD #8 - which takes me to my month's target! :j You'd better put those kippers on hold Spoony :rotfl:

    Oh, btw Spoony, I'd check the Tardis if I were you...I'm sure BDINI mentioned something on our last outing about him staying there while they were on hols....:eek:

    Eeek.. kerri, what a day:eek: Glad it got better though with your target being met now :j:j:j I'm a tad disappointed though, I thought the kippers would get an outing this month, it seems not though:D

    Thanks for the warning, I'll go investigate the Tardis:D

    Ahh.. thanks, katholicos, that's lovely x


    No 21 for me today, I resisted the temptation to spend and will lump it all together tomorrow now when I do the dreaded Tatco run:(:(:(:(:(:( (have I ever told you how much I hate going to Tatco??)

    Front page all updated now, see you all tomorrow.

    'night everyone
