    Just flying in to report NSD number 11 in the bag, and hopefully will be followed by number 12 at some point during the next 3 days.

    Are we having an outing this month? Igor reckons that as Wednesday is a special day, only happening once every 4 years, and as it's known as a Leap Year, we should do something involving leaping around -

    Yessir! Grab your pardners for the NSD gang hoe-down!

    Virtual invitations winging their way to you all as we "speak" - cowboy dress optional, bring your own cans of beans (but no recreating that "Blazing Saddles" campfire scene, thank you very much, we are refained folks here......)

    Igor desperately wants to do a hog roast....must remind him, before he puts the hog on the spit, make sure it is a little bit dead first....and who is going to be brewing the moonshine this time? Come on chaps, volunteers please! Also music - about time we resurrected the NSD gang fiddling banjo band!

    Now when you said Banjo...I thought you meant Ashley and the Diveristy crew were coming :D
    Wooohoo this sounds fun :rotfl:. I agree that the day should not go unmarked. Happy to brew moonshine for the occassion :Tand I wondered if Igor could run to some vegetarian sausages...at least he doesn't have to worry about running after them with his marinade!

    Excellent.

    Careful MTTS - Igor's idea of vegetarian sausages is prob sausages made OF vegetarians :eek:

    Anyone seen David T recently?

    errr... no comment :o;):o;) (DAVID GET BACK IN THE CUPBOARD - DID I SAY YOU CAN COME OUT YET?) whoops :o:o:rotfl:

    Well i managed the aerobics class today, really enjoyed it and aren't as unfit or useless as I imagined :D

    Did a bit of a shop at Mr A, but was 'only' about £35 after my coupons and APGs which is a lot better than usual. Lots of 'tickets' in the car park too, £3 back so far and more to check tomorrow so fingers crossed.

    I've also realised i've clocked up NSD #12 (grocery shopping came out of household budget) so now need 2 / 3 days left to hit - good job there is an extra day in the month this year :D

    NSD 13 today, can't see me reaching my target but shouldn't be far off it.

    Feeling very poorly and getting worse as the day goes on, feeling very dizzy everytime I stand up so worried about the school run tomorrow:(

    Eeek I made a mistake!!

    Today is NSD 11 and I have hit my 3 in a row target!!!

    So if I really knuckle down I can make it to just one off target. Phew that really has cheered me up today :D

    (This is all assuming I go back to my original targets of 15 NSDs not 18, and 3 NSDs in a row and not 5 :p I am going to aim for my new 5 in a row target but not looking at the 18 NSDs target otherwise I will CRY!!)
