Wow, sounds exciting, is it a pole showcase?

Have to just share this funny moment with you all.... dozing on the sofa when there is a knock on the front door... after nearly pooing myself as no one knocks on my door at this time of night i answer to find the bloke across the road pointing at an enormous trampoline in the middle of the road asking "is this yours?"
Do i look like the sort of person that jumps around in the middle of the night in my Pj's on a trampoline????? i ask myself :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
Still not sure why he thought he should knock on my door, but feel a call to the council may be in order in the morning, as not sure how anyone will get their cars out round the monstrosity....

Is it wrong that my first thought was "where can i hide it till the next free listing weekend"??????

It is indeedy BDINI - slightly worried as I've got a rather ambitious combo in it and hope I don't fall off as I'll really hurt myself :eek: Between that and Xmas, it's been playing havoc with my NSD this week. Had to get some costume bits (to date only have in my posession a bow tie and some ribbons though :eek::eek:)

Also been trying to get ahead with some Xmas shopping and bought a few things online this week - prob won't count this as my NSD like last year but between everythnig else this week NSD seem to have rather gone to pot Would've been one today but had to get parcel tape - one of the fleabay items I was going to chuck sold for £20 :eek::D

Rising - lovely to see you logged on. Big hugs x

Lots of other threads to catch up on as well so back a bit later xx

& great news on the fleabay sale too!! I'm in the obsessive looking for new bid's every 5 minutes stage right now, god only knows what i'll be like come Sunday! :rotfl:

Great to hear from you Rising ((((((((((((((big hugs)))))))))))) x

Thanks everyone for your support, today was quite a good day, so it's set me up for the weekend quite nicely!

Oh, & number 15 & target met today! :j:j
Extra impressive as i went to Mr W to collect the kit i need to install my waterbutt this weekend (seriously impressed with the service, i only ordered it yesterday when i realised i'd be spending in the pub ) & managed not to spend a single penny on anything else :j

Think i'll up my target to 18 please Freeby.

ooo oooo oooo i got another NSD. That's #9

Our bosses have offered to take all the staff out for a meal as a thank you for our hard work. There are 160 staff. There are 6 meals, and i managed to get a sneaky invite to tonights meal late this afternoon, so was thinking i would be buying a drink and spoiling my opportunity for a NSD, but one of the girls got me a drink so no spends for me. :j:j:j

I'm not going to have an NSD today but tomorrow's looking good. Sunday will be food shopping.

I suspect I'll get 10 in and have had my head focussed on that number. So as an experiment and because I want a really good boost to my sealed pot before end of November I will rejig my shopping budget and up my target so that I can focus on a higher number and go for it!

Thank you all for the help and support which is obtained just by reading your posts.

Thank you to everyone who has worked so hard on keeping this up to date and so much fun.

Hey Muffy

Good luck getting up to NSD #10, I know you and your determination so I have no doubt you'll do it
