    Ahoy me hearties and hooray, hooray, for the merry merry month of May! And well done freeby for getting things up and running!

    I notice a couple of very naughty peeps on the first couple of pages using the forbidden f word. We do not "fail" on here - see BigMumma's message near start of thread for the rules. Every NSD is a triumph and this thread is all about setting a target and doing your best to reach it. We do not put people up against the wall in front of a firing squad for not quite reaching their targets (thank gawd for that, otherwise I would be full of holes...). Of course, if you set yourself a target of 20 NSDs and only achieve 2, then a parcel of rotting kippers from the depths of CW18's freezer (which is the size of Wembley Stadium) will be winging its way to you pronto! Closely followed by Bdini's soggy paintbrush.

    Anyway, assuming freeby is right and summer is on its way and lots of alcofrolic prizes will be won, how about we have a traditional Mayday celebration sometime at the weekend? Igor is busy hammering in the maypole even as we speak, so I hope there are enough of you out there to form a maypole dancing team? Assuming of course that Bdini manages to keep Hubert from eating all the coloured ribbons, or there will be some technicolour nappies on the way!

    Ooh, I haven't set my target, have I? Freeby, put me down for 12 NSDs for May!

    Bye for now....
    One life - your life - live it!

    I'm gonna start with a target of 10. Not one today - rent came out. No chance of spending any more at the moment cos my card got cloned last week and cleared it. Thankfully i had enough for the rent!
