    Before I forget, I've reached the heady sum of 22 nsds so far, but I've to go out later (flu jab :undecided so nowt exciting) & may be asked to collect supplies for one or other, so won't declare just yet.

    And because of said *ahem* medical procedure (I know     :shhh: but it gets The Offspring doing stuff when I lay it on a bit) would anybody mind if I left the deep fried spiders whole this year? Jointing them up is rather time-consuming, & you know what the queues can be like on knocka layshuns days at the dox...

    yay! 15NSDs for me

    I have been busy in the house and as such have not had the opportunity to go out and spend. I still have a sack of onions and half a sack of potatoes. Onion soup seems like an idea for lunch.

As its so miserable I'm going to cheer myself up & do some baking - twinks coming up ;) AND I've bagged another NSDso at least I got 2/3rds of my target - off to update my sig - onward to next months challenge!!

    Hello all! I hope you are all well!
    I've returned from a very pleasant few days in rural Shropshire with the family (even if I did run over a pheasant on the way home... I felt so bad!)
    I ended up with NSD's for Monday, Tuesday and today. Bringing my total for October to 18! :D
    Because it's fun to have money!

    Almost hit a NSD yesterday... until OH decided to stop off at Lidl (hence the reason my goalposts are being moved for November! ;))

    Today, again, so far so good. We'll just have to wait and see what happens when I leave work at 5.30!! :p

    There are some fantastic NSD totals here!! Absolutely brilliant work everyone! Very well done! :D
