    Now-now; we'll have no more of that than-que! I almost got my yellow card out, but consider this a friendly 'chat' more than an official warning ;)

    Just said on the May thread Narg, that perhaps we could combine the Solstice with a trip to the amusement park. Seems I was right when I thought June would be busy; Cheryl's 13 mile race, Father's Day, hot rod show, No1 Offspring's b'day, food, bills.....don't know about you lot, but I could do with a virtual outing :o Pass the demijohn Igor, & we'll have a thinking circle to thrash out the details :beer:

    Shezam - wash your mouth out with soap (MSE BOGOF recycled environmentally friendly soap of course!) No f words allowed here!

    Big M - Cheryl's race on the 19th I think? (Correct me if I'm wrong, just too darn lazy to search the previous posts) I think I threatened her with having a crowd of NSD gang members surrounding you in your deckchair (I have condemned you to eternity in that deck chair) wearing various fancy dress items lining up along the home strait shouting "Yoooo Hooooo, CW! It's us! We're here!" and Igor doing some kind of barbecue thing. Any further ideas, folks?

    Then the Solstice - couple of days or so later, anyone got the actual date for us? All of us dressed up in our kaftans (no, Igor, it is not a Ku Klux Klan convention) drinking dodgy mead or nettle beer, dancing around the altar stone at sunrise after a funfilled day at the fair? (Yes Igor, all you will have to do is lie still on that nice comfy stone bed with some ropes around you to keep you safe. Take no notice of the mad woman with the knife).

    Are we all ready for a purplicious NSD month then?

    Hello, I would like to join this please, I need to rein in the needless spending I seem to do. I would like to set my target at 10 NSD for June

    Hopefully this will help me save the pennies and then I can put more towards my card payments.

    You's are right though, I managed to clock up 4 NSD's in May so I am glad of that!
