    Good morning everyone! :wave:

    I caught NSD number 16 yesterday, so that I've now beaten my Hall of Fame target and I'm up to 7 NSDs in-a-row! :j

    Unfortunately, I've got a big food shop to do today, so no NSD for me, but I hope to hop back on the wagon tomorrow!

    Have a good hump-day everyone! sunshine-012.gif

    I'm aiming for a technical NSD today by only spending what I have in my purse, as I allocated that when I took money out on Monday. I don't have a lot of things to buy, although suspect that we'll need milk before the day is out anyway due to Mr Fresian's tea addiction :D

    Not a hope in hell for me. The garage have just phoned and the car is going to cost £360 to fix. Not only does that blow my nsd, it also blows my wedding dress saving fund and clears my bank account out completely.
    I'm devastated - it's been one of those cars that I've had nothing but bother with but I just can't afford to get rid of it (still paying for the blimming thing).
