    Hiya All! I'm going to try for 15 NSDs this month not counting DDs cause they were a real stumbling block last month!

    I don't count DD dates either ...... mine all come out on different days and when I counted them up and realised there were a total of 19 of them :eek: it would be impossible for me to ever get more than 12 (and that's in a "long" month).

    I deliberately spaced them out over the month rather than having them all come off together ..... however, the money to cover them is transferred to the "bill" account in one go so I feel pretty comfortable just counting that day as a spend and not all the separate DDs.:)


    ETA: I forgot to post my NSD today:o..... No 2 please!:D

    Evening all :j Well I don't know what's wrong with me but i can't seem to stay out of the kitchen...no not eating but cooking. Last night it was apple and blackberry crumble with cinnamon (oh and a pasta bake) and tonight I've been brewing a chilli in the cauldron.

    Was a bit worried about how it would taste as i used pork mince instead of beef but in with the usual ingredients (oh and a lamb oxo as I ran out of beef ones...even if I was using pork :D) but it all came good and was / is really yummy. I use dark soy sauce instead of salt for depth of flavour. Anyhoo, OH approves...which is good cos he's got it for dinner tomorrow :rotfl:

    not a NSD for me, spent 40p on some mushrooms in Mr T and 60p on soured cream in Mr S. also spent £3 odd on a card for my 'SIL' b'day :eek: would never normally spend quite so much but it is a 'special' year so I thought I should spend a little extra given savings I've been making elsewhere.

    Oh, did also spend in B**ts on some foundation primer and eyeliner, but some of that was on a pre-loaded gift card so actual money handed over was 48p :A

    Big hugs to all who need them. xx Have a good evening all xx

    Hi folks,

    I've just returned from Holiday and have not yet had time to catch up on the posts, so hope everyone is well. I've obviously had all spend days so far this month and as I missed the opportunity, would like to go for 12 NSDs please.
    If you've nothing decent to say, perhaps you shouldn't say anything.
