Hi everyone,
Pleased to report I'm straight back on track and nsd #1 is in the bag.
Thanks for the welcome back marmite - it was my wedding last week. Lovely in every way, we all had a fantastic day. By typical wedding costs it was a fairly budget wedding, and I'm thrilled that we paid for it without getting into any more debt at all - but it was quite a lot of money for us, and now I have both kids birthdays this month and Christmas coming up.

Awww you guysI still love it (which is good:cool:) and it's been admired at work. I asked someone how much they thought it'd cost and they said £25
(honestly still can't believe how cheap it was!).
Decided on balance not to count yesterday as a NSD - felt wrong as even though I've covered it out the treat fund, it was an impulse buy and the type I need to stop(but def worth it
). Spoon I will get a pic posted ......
ETA
Not very clear from the pic, but there's a wee pocket either side of the main bag bit (which the strap handily secures!), which are really handy (and quite big as my make up bag fits in there!)
Did manage to get No 2 today tho'
Hope it's been as lovely where you are as it has been here today - must fly, just back from the beach with Maisie & need to make sure I've got everything out of the car ready for tomorrow (you wouldn't believe what's in there). Have a great evening everyone:)

thanks marmite
this month is going to be the killer month for NSD as I have my OH birthday, my sisters birthday (same day) and my youngest sister is coming up to celebrate with us.
My road tax is due, i have to get my car bonnet resprayed from an accident at the car cleaners :mad: - tip dont get your car power spray washed, do it yourself with a sponge.
our 7 year anniversary is also this month
our friends are having an emigrating party in a pub, i have another friends birthday party which i have been invited too
but all of these finally gave my my LBM. as for once the money had actually run out, nor more overdraft to spend, no more savings to splurge etc!IF YOU THINK YOU ARE SO CLEVER, THEN WHY ARE'NT YOU RICH?
