    Keiss - glad the tooth is feeling a little better today.

    Dannie - how about setting yourself a second target to try and achieve before the end of the month to keep you going? You've done fab so far :T

    Lily - :eek: to the salad con caterpillar, Nargle - has Igor been moonlighting making salads anywhere? :D

    Me looking forward to donning my shades and mac for my mystery shop next weekend. I can also at last declare NSD #11 so target in sight at last. Quite suprised how they've clocked up this month given we have guests for the first week, sadly doesn't mean I have saved any extra pennies since the days I did spend I spent BIG :eek: Outing to the canival sounds fab - I hear Igor does a [STRIKE]fab[/STRIKE] interesting Jamacian Jerk chicken .... :rotfl::rotfl:

  • :( Not a NSD today. I had it all planned that I would meet my second target today but then someone in work decided to do a lottery syndicate so I had to chip in. I can't take the risk of not being in it & everyone else winning & I could really, really do with some extra money at the minute.

    I'm really hoping not to spend anything tomorrow so I can reach my target & then spend, spend, spend on Friday! :D

  • NSD 9 for me today. I'm finding this so hard this month :(

    We all have off months SF don't beat yourself up about it, you know you will be back on track soon!
    BDINI - I know it's a bit of a joke now I'm 26 and no sniff of a boyfriend - not that I care most of the time :rotfl:

    Aww JCG you're still a baby compared to me, so don't worry, there's time yet, & all least when you do meet the man of your dreams the debt will be gone!!

    Glad the tooth seems to be healing Keiss & that you're feeling a little better.

    Ooh Jinty enjoy your long weekend!

    Fab news about DS Beanie & great that he has more than one option!!

    Small spend yesterday, met a couple of my old work colleagues, but thankfully we have found a pub where all beer is less than £2, so was a very cheap night & so so lovely to catch up!! :D

    Today thankfully was number 12 :j

    & definitely count me in for Notting Hill, it's been ages since i last sampled one of Igor's creations!!

    Great news beanie, really pleased to hear that:T:T


    Hi lovely gang
    Just realised I forgot to do an update yesterday:o:o which is why some of you are getting confused with your totals, I think..

    Going to do a roundup now and I'll update the front page. If you're not sure of your numbers, check on there tomorrow, they should be correct then.

    I used to have a brain.. and a good memory.. :doh::doh:

    Hehe - think we all going a little mad! I know I got another NSD yesterday so hopefully (unless I'm totally losing my mind - likely!) thats NSD 15 :D

    I did spend but my money back from my sisters for cinema tickets covered it and some more!

    Too true, JCG.

    All sorted now, you have you first prize and your target's increased now

    Well done!

    Thanks Lily :) it's just that I'm normally at 15 or so by now, so it looks rubbish to me in comparison!

    Yes, but.... you've been on your hols, sf, it's always more difficult to get NSDs then so I think you've done pretty well considering.

    Well done :j:j:j:j
