    BDINI - I feel I must apologise as I didn't note you are in charge of us this month :o I'd really better behave then (although at least it's not Nargle....she'd threaten to send Igor round :eek:) :rotfl::rotfl:

  • Morning all,

    I'm having real trouble staying on track and keeping my focus at the tail end of the year. I'm sure everyone is feeling busier than ever at the moment. I simply can't believe that we're in December already, but suppose I must!

    We've got visitors here at the moment so that means days out, trying hard to make a plan that will allow a few freebie days too. Then we're away from 21st.

    Anyhoo, going to aim for 8. It's a nice looking number :D

    Morning all :D

    I'm aiming for today as my first NSD - start as you mean to go on and all that ;)

    Mainly it's because I'm away to Aberdeen this weekend and will end up spending while I'm there, no matter how hard I try!

    thank for starting the thread bdni. Haven't done this for a while as everything went t!ts up financially and ended up paying out a daily basis for little things and big things.


    but OH has finally separated business and personal so here i am attempting to balance the sheets in the hope that everything will be even or starting to be at least by the end of December ready for January.

    Please could you put down for 10 , haven't done nay christmas yet. So will be out doing that at first then after that no more spending hopefully.

    Thanks

    Thanks wannabehermit, spanner wasn't used, mini digger, trench, new underground pipework, the blue alki sort. then he decided to put in new pipework everywhere so the trench was over a quarter of a mile long with T-offs everywhere, then he ran out of fittings, no water for over 48hrs. Couldn't you just bless his little cotton socks or throttle him.

    By the way he's now ripping out the bathroom!!!!!!!:eek::eek::eek: Life certainly isn't dull around here

    :eek::eek::eek:Blinkin' 'eck! That was one big leak, a spanner and washer would be pretty useless in that case :p.

    I did have an nsd planned for today but ds2 has wrecked dd's raincover so I've had to order one of those today plus the oil filled rad in her room has packed in so new one of those ordered too. It was pretty old (used to be DHs nans!) so was really due a replacement.

    Morning all. Thanks BDINI for starting the new thread. Can you put me down for 10 NSD's this month please. Hopefully I will make it more as we have all our Xmas stuff sorted and don't really need to buy a lot.
    Good luck everyone. We'll make this a brilliant December. :xmassmile :santa2::xmassign: :xmastree: :snow_grin :rudolf:

    Good morning all!

    Thanks BDINI for getting us going this month! Prizes are brilliant - I WANT THAT SANTA!!
    Please put me down for 10 this month - trying to be realistic, as I have still a few Christmas things to buy.

    No NSD today, grocery shopping and window cleaner to pay. Also, the Ringtons man is due today, need my builder's brew!

    Had WW this morning, I lost 2.5lbs this week, so I'm well chuffed! Thats 27.5lb in total and I have 6 to go to goal! I bought a pedometer last week and it's spurred me on to do more walking!

    On that note, time to get the boots on and get going with doglet!th_christmasdogicon.gif

    Have a great day everyone!:)
