Good morning folks and a happy Halloween to you all,

As I'm off today, but am going out to finish my Christmas shopping, today will definitely be a spendy for me. I hope everyone has a good day whatever they're doing.

Wow! I am suitably impressed with your organisation. I have started my shopping but I'm sure there'll be a last min scramble. Have some things on a list but also waiting to see what Amazon will come up with on their Black Friday sale.

Hope Iggy returns soon. Have you checked any trees near you? Our minx got stuck up (the same) tree several times going after (the same) pigeon nest.

Donna, we were having exactly the same thought earlier, I only bought one bag this year after not having many visitors last year and we're down to about 3 lollies and 4 packs of fizzers :eek: Luckily the QS seem safe for the mo, else I'm gonna have to start giving out TCO :rotfl::rotfl:

Well...drum roll... NSD 12 achieved! :j Not quite my target for the month but Spoony you were right about wondering whether I'd hit double figures this month :eek: I did collect a coat for my OH GD's xmas prezzie but that had been paid for already.

Jinty - aches still somewhat present today but I can now do a fab impression of John Wayne when I walk :rotfl:

See you all on the Nov thread :beer:

And hello to:

jinty - definitely a bargain on the sweets, hope the trick or treaters enjoyed them. Fingers crossed for your NSD today

Learning2Budget - be proud of your 6 NSDs, they were very hard won this month. I like your positive attitude, dust yourself off November is another month.

Red - err... I have a list of C shopping, would you like to do mine as well? Hope you got it all finished today

LMH - be proud of your 8 NSDs, you might not have made your target but you’ve done most of your C shopping, that’s an achievement. Hope the littlies enjoyed Halloween. Keeping my fingers crossed for Iggy as well x

SpendSpendSpend - I think I’d have bought some chocolate as well if I had that afternoon in front of me. Hope it wasn’t too painful

ModestyB - a bacon and egg sandwich is well worth losing an NSD for, glad you enjoyed it

toots - oh dear, never mind, there’s always November, you can do it!


No 24 for me today and my third prize, woohooooooo!!


Off to update the front page again now, see you all tomorrow - either here or in November, or maybe both!:D

Take care with that burn, marmiterulesok have you tried using Aloe Vera gel (100% stuff)? It is really good for burns, it may sting a bit initially, but it fairly speeds up the healing process. It's even better, (though much messier!), if you use the leaf goop from fresh aloe vera plants.

I used to supply a young lad with lots of plants to treat some severe chest and upper arm burns he got when he had been in a kitchen fire as a chef...the docs were amazed at his recovery, as none of the conventional medicines were helping him to heal much at all. He used a leaf a day, and it certainly worked! Look out for Aloe Gel at a health shop...not cheap, but brilliant. We always have at least one tube of it in the house. We keep the aloes as house plants...but have used them when we ran out of gel.

Thanks for this info.I've never tried aloe vera,but have heard it's good.They prescribed Flammazine cream -don't know if it's called the same thing in Britain.I'll have a lookout for some gel.

Well done to everyone who met their targets

I'm pleased to say I managed to meet my target :j. 10/10 for me. At the In-laws at the weekend so no spending then and nothing to get yesterday so I made my sprint finish. See you on November challenge!
