    Hey all,

    Think I am up to 3 NSDs now. None over the weekend though! Big shop and hair cut Saturday. I felt carp, and spent the afternoon asleep on the couch! Then I woke up and looked for kittens on the internet! Which leads us to Sunday a VERY spendy day! I have noooo money at all, but somehow managed to justify spending £142 on two kittens and all the stuff I needed to look after them :o

    They are both adorable, I will try and get a pic on when I get a better one. I've called them Maud and Enid :D I think Enid may have mild CH which is a formal of cerebral palsy. Bit peed off about this, not because she has it, but because her owners would definitely have know there was something wrong with her but didn't say anything :mad:

    JCG xx

  • Hello All :D

    I got NSD #2 today, hurrah! Haven't really decided on my rules though - not sure whether to count budgeted spends such as grocery shop? Either way not spent a penny today so woooop!

    Keep going everyone, lots of days left to get those NSDs :)

    squigy~i dont count budgeted food or petrol unless I go over IYSWIM?
    I also have a coin pot for bits and bobs of change and if I use money from there for little bits and bobs then I dont count that either.
    We all have our own rules :grin:

    I went for a cordless one in the end and it seems to have decent reviews ... perhaps cordless is the way to go for you ...:o

    :o Think you could be right there Kerri!;) Thanks for the link

    Awwwww congrats JCG!:D Can't wait to see the pics when you have them:) - I *think* (but no way near 100% sure) that CH is caused if the mother cat's ill during pregnancy (?). One of my friends had a cat with CH years ago and he lived a long and happy life :)
