    Good Morning, :)

    I hope everyone is feeling well this morning. It finally feels like Spring has arrived in this little corner of Scotland, which on one hand is lovely but on the other, it means I have to get out and tidy up the garden :eek:

    Well done to everyone who captured another NSD
    Allie Baliie Bee – I was sorry to hear how ill you’ve been. Here's hoping you are on the road to recovery now. :) And well done for getting up to NSD #7 :j
    Bottleofred – NSD #12 captured. :T Well done. That’s a brilliant amount of NSDs. :)
    Chris81418 – A brilliant NSD #12 for you. :j The wagon was a bit lonely without you. :)
    Greenanne – I hope you had a lovely holiday.:) Well done for NSD #1 and good luck for many more. :T
    Jaffacakegal – Well done for nabbing NSD #7.:j I hope the old/new job went well. :)
    Keiss 21 – Well done on NSD #8 :j and I hope you have a lovely time with DS1 when he gets home. :beer:
    Lotti379 – A superb NSD #3 for you. :j This site is very addictive, you come on to check what’s happening and then lose all track of time. :)
    modestyB – Well done on getting NSD #8 :j and keeping DH out of the shops. Have a fantastic day with DGS. :)
    Rising – Well done for getting your 4 in a row :j last week. Are you up to NSD #9? :j
    Silvasava – Well done for capturing another NSD. :j Is that you up to 5 NSDs?? :)

    And hello to
    Beanielou – Happy New Haircut. :T Funny how a simple thing like a haircut makes us feel so much better. :)
    BDINI – Nice to see you back. :j I hope you find all the things you have lost from your computer. I must must must download all my bits onto a memeory stick sometime soon. :o
    BigmummaF – Have a fantastic St Patricks Day party. :beer: But don’t eat any chocolate bunnys that Igor might try and tell you he needs an opinion on before the Easter outing. :eek:
    Jintyb – How brilliant to see you back. :j We were all getting a bit worried about you. Good news about getting your tablets all sorted and I hope they kick in soon and you start to feel better :)
    Nargleblast – I :rotfl: at Igor’s Easter bunny idea. :eek: Good luck for Sunday’s NSD. :)

    Hope I haven't missed anybody, :o just shout up if I have and I'll sort it out for the update later :)
    I managed NSD #12 yesterday :T but today is my usual spendy Saturday :eek: so no chance of another one unless my fairy godmother waves her magic wand and Mr T lets me have it all for nothing :)
    Have a fantastic Saturday x x

    Good Morning folks from a very icy NI and a Happy Saint Patricks day to you all:beer:.

    I unexpectedly had NSD13 yesterday:beer:
    Today won't be an NSD though, as I am going to buy my Mother flowers for tomorrow.
    Jinty, glad to see you back and I hope you are feeling much better soon.
    Jaffa, I hope the 2nd job went ok and you are feeling more comfortable about the place.
    Allie, I hope you are feeling better.
    I hope everyone else had a great weekend, is well and grabs as many NSDs as possible.:)
    If you've nothing decent to say, perhaps you shouldn't say anything.

    Quick suggestion, mainly for Bottle of Red's benefit really as you seem to be in need of moral support to complete your quest...

    We can fire up the tardis & come over tonight, then spend all day doing The Emerald Isle. Never been to Ireland but would like to do my bit to help keeping your mind from a certain beverage.
    No need to worry about brekkie; I got a bargain on a French breakfast cereal (at least I think it's French. With a name like Les Prix Corn flakes what else could it be!) & whoever has the nsd cow, please bring her along too.

    Ooooooooo--getting really excited :j This'll be my first ever Paddy party! Now where did I put my green vest....



    Bigmumma,

    That is an excellent idea and you will get a warm Irish welcome:D
    If I'm honest, I think I'd have been happy to stay off alcolhol and more particularly Red wine for 30 days, as I started the Sunday before lent, which made it 27 days yesterday. I think anyone who knows me is quite surprised that I still haven't had any, although I'd be lying if I said I wasn't thinking about having a glass or 2 of Red today:o

    As I recently took receipt of some new bottles at home, I'm surprised I'm only considering a few glasses:rotfl:

    We'll see how it goes today though and I'll keep you informed.
    Have a fantastic St Patricks day:)

    Hi all,

    Can I please revise my total to 8? I've been a Very Spendy Fresian and have spent every day since I got back from my holiday a week ago. If I hit my target of 8, I might have a chance of building on it. Won't be today though as I'm about to head out for coffee with a friend. Sheesh...!

    Hello everyone

    I won't be posting here for a while as my Dad peacefully passed away last week aged 82.

    DFF
    Hugs DFF & condolences to you & your family - hope we'll see you here fairly soon.

    Managed NSD No 6 today - only 'cos its so dull & 'dimsal' outside I decided to do some paperwork so now I'm feeling very virtuous :A

    Hope all you Mum's have a lovely day tomorrow - whatever it brings (and all the lovely 'threadlers' on here)
    Small victories - sometimes they are all you can hope for but sometimes they are all you need - be kinder than necessary, for everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle
