    Hey guys,

    2 out of 2 so far for me :) ...

    big store cupboard stock up planned for tomorrow, so I wont be here then !
  • Ooh checking in for #1 this month! I can't believe I am going to say this... I actually loved being at work today!! It's been so long and I've been so bored, I would have done a longer shift!

    Hi lovely gang:A
    Me again tonight, I’m doing updates on Tuesday and Thursday this month so this will be a regular update from me:D.



    Newbie joining up today:
    :hello:dmlambert - all signed up for 10 now as promised earlier. Good luck, you can do it!!


    Returnees to the fold (some people objected to “oldies” last month, can’t think why). Good luck everyone:

    :hello:Purpletea65 - welcome back, good to have you on board again. All signed up for 15 now. Good luck.

    :hello:niccatw - lovely to have you back on board again, we’ve missed you. All signed up for 15 now, good luck. Nope, it’s all been fairly quiet over the past couple of months and not too many of us in disgrace, but that’s about to change this month.
    :j:jWell done for no 1, great start for you!


    Well done to the following for NSD no 1, off the mark now:

    :j:jchris81418 - woohoo indeed, hope you managed to catch some sunshine, as well as an NSD, today as well.

    :j:jJAMIEDODGER - hope the major catastrophe didn’t materialise and you managed to keep your purse shut!

    :j:jjinty - woohoo indeed! Hope you managed to get everything done today and you’re looking gorgeous now!! I like the MS tea, sounds good to me!

    :j:jshezam - woohoo indeed!! Ooh a new haircut, hope you’re pleased with it?

    :j:jdebnmatilda - oh dear, sorry about your bank problems, but at least you’ve grabbed your first NSD, that must be a bonus. Hope you get the problem sorted out soon, good luck

    :j:jchrisico - yay!!! Well done for avoiding the temptation by going for a walk, you’ll definitely end up with thin thighs that way!!

    :j:jKeiss - well done for declaring early, that’s the spirit!! Hope DS is OK and feeling better? And yes, the weekend spend plans make perfect sense

    :j:jmrso2b - liking the food preparations, that’s the way to avoid those lunchtime temptations. Hope it worked today.
    And it did, well done, but an even bigger congratulations on your payrise and bonus - that’s fantastic!!!:T

    :j:jThe Dragon - you’re off the mark indeed, great start, keep going now!

    :j:jWee Pilsbury - woohoo...... and I love that film too, it’s a classic!!

    :j:jhotspur_pam - definitely loving the sunshine, about time too!! Well done for being so organised today, I’m impressed. Keep going now!

    :j:jcharlyze2 - definitely much better today, that’s a great start for you. Keep going, you can do it!!

    :j:jRock_Cakes - it’s been lovely here today thanks, hope you’ve managed to get some sunshine? Hope DH manages to speak to the landlord soon and good luck with the job application.
    Fingers crossed for no 2 tomorrow

    :j:jRed - great start for you, keep going now!!

    :j:jpsychopathbabble - fingers crossed for today, hope work went OK?
    And the finger crossing worked, yay!!! Sometimes even work is preferable to being bored, glad you enjoyed the day!


    Well done to the following for 2 NSDs, great start, keep going:

    :j:jmarmiterulesok - hope you enjoyed the Bank Holiday and your day off

    :j:jpinkfluffybabe - great start for you. Sorry you couldn’t find us but glad you have now

    :j:jLula - yay!!! you’re doing brilliantly. Hope tomorrow isn’t too seriously spendy


    Hello to:

    Knitty78 - oh dear, sorry to hear about the kitchen disaster:(, hope you got the new bin today

    LittleMissHappy - oh dear, more car spends, hope you got both of them sorted (and taxed) today. You’re right, after that expenditure treating the boys to some sweeties isn’t that much (did that help?:cool:)

    rdchick - “mental”, that’s a bit unkind - deluded, delusional, off the wall, or possibly all three... I’m definitely all three:D. Thanks for the compliment, I’ve never been called “hardcore” before.. it’s never too late.:rotfl: Great going with the debts, that’s brilliant!!

    dmlambert - never mind, there are loads of potential NSDs left in June, early days yet. Fingers crossed for tomorrow:)

    Yorkielass - you’re definitely right about volunteering, it keeps you busy and away from the shops and yet you feel as though you’re doing something worthwhile at the same time. Good plan, definitely:T

    strawberriesandcream - oh dear, never mind, we’ve all done that at some point. Put it down to experience and try again tomorrow. Sorry you had a bad day at work ((hugs)):A
    Don’t worry, we’ll be keeping tabs on you

    jnaden- spends are probably excusable this week as you’ve got a lot of arrangements to make and things to get sorted out. We’ll let you off this week but the kippers will be out next week if this continues:rotfl:Fingers crossed for OH’s job

    zpr1c3 - glad you enjoyed the celebrations and good luck with the job hunting, hope you find something soon.:)

    BMF - you’re right, we definitely need a fondue. I’m digging out my cheesecloth skirts now as I type:cool:

    Nargle - oh dear, more spends today, but some bargains as well by the looks of it. Early days yet, plenty of time left. Scampi in a basket, now there’s a thought!!:eek:

    Chloris - well, it’s half term and the kids have to be entertained, I think we can excuse you today’s spends.:)

    If - yes, I do hate spend days, they interfere with my debt-busting:mad:


    NSD no 1 for me today as well, off the starting blocks now...

    ‘night everyone

    Better have a phonn-dooo at this shin-dig, & a smoked salmon pate ring with cucumber scales! And M4rtini, C1nzan0 & a party 7 :beer: Ooohhh & as per the season, we could wear cheesecloth & love beads *wonders where heart shaped sunglasses are hiding*

    Big M - fondue sounds good. If we are going all sixties/seventies at our Midsummer bash, don't forget the Black Forest Gateau, Blue Nun, Pimms, prawn cocktail, cheese and wine and chicken or scampi in a basket! I am sure Igor will man the deep fat fryer for us. Must remember to dig out the psychedelic specs and the patchouli oil.



    I love and remember all of that...........happy days! I had a cheesecloth shirt which I wore with loons and cork soled sandals, thought I looked fab-u-lous! I also had a vast selection of love beads and favoured a dab of patchouli oil to finish off the effect! Gosh, I was easily pleased in those days!;)


    you will always be rich enough to be generous.

    Good morning all!
    Loved catching up with all the chat this morning! Well, its absolutely gorgeous here this morning, so I was thinking BBQ with a nice bit of salad for tea - then I heard the news about the ecoli thing in salad veg. What a bummer, I loves my salad me!
    Anyhoo, busy day ahead. Weekly shop needed and then the ORANGE DIY emporium for a couple of garden items. I loathe this shop with a passion ( together with the blue and yellow one) so I will be in and out in a jiffy!
    Planning to get all my plants in that I bought yesterday, so it's gardening for me this afternoon!

    Nicca- great to see you back!

    Have a lovely day everyone:)


    you will always be rich enough to be generous.
