    Bdini - well done on the lottery win, nice if there were a few more noughts on the end but any win is a good one! I put £3 a week on the lottery - now I know that over a year that amounts to £156, but honestly, do you really think I am going to methodically put £3 in a jar every week and not touch it for a year? Are you kidding? I am not that self-disciplined! That £3 would just get squandered on incidentals, so I might as well put it on the lottery - as they say, you have to be in it to win it!

    Oh, and have now clocked up number 8 NSD!!!!
    We keep a-plodding on......

    Evening all! wow! looks like summer has started - it was SUNNY here today! had better get my summer gear out, only 6 more days until autumn now :rotfl:

    Well my home made pasta (with the egg yolk left from yesterday) didn't quite work tonight, but I did clock up NSD #11 - did ask a friend to pick me up a lemon in town which she did but took some banana cake in payment - so when life throws you lemons, I made apple and blackberry trake bake tonight :D only had 2 eggs so not enough to have another bash at the pasta. Will have to try and get some more tomorrow for that.

    Hope you're all managing to enjoy a bit of the sunshine xx

    Karb - well done for NSD 10 :j:j:j and extra :j:j:j:j:j for being in profit - you go!!!!

    Well, I'm so sorry my lovely NSD friends but I have been studying so hard that I haven't had time to post - I have been lurking though, and keeping up with everything :) The next few weeks are really hectic for me, but then things should get back to normal (relatively speaking in this house!) x

    I got NSD's 9 & 10 over the week end, none today though as I got a few bits from N*xt and am thinking I might have a look at the Tatco club card exchange thingy that is on at the moment for a few housey things.



    This is, obviously, displacement activity as I should be studying for my exam but we all love a bit of retail therapy in place of important things needing doing now, don't we?!?!?

    Good evening folks from a still lovely blue skyed NI:eek:

    A lovely warm day in NI today, although I didn't get to see that much of it as I very busy with work:)
    Declaring NSD14 for today please:beer:
    Tomorrow will definitely not be an NSD though, as I'm going to a wine tasting for Italian wines:):D

    Kerri, did you let the pasta rest after it all came together, as I wouldn't have given it enough resting time before, but do now.

    I hope everyone is well and enjoying the sunshine:)
    If you've nothing decent to say, perhaps you shouldn't say anything.

    Good Morning :)

    No NSD for me yesterday :( I bought some curtains I've had my eye on for ages and yesterday they had 50% off stickers on them - well, how could I resist??????

    Hoping for one today though :)
