    Good morning folks,

    My mum got out of hospital on Tuesday, so things are slowly returning to normal. I have been travelling lots more, so have been using more liquid gold. I did however manage to get NSDs 5,6,7 & 8 for Sunday, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. I've yet to catch up on the posts, so hope everyone is well:D
    If you've nothing decent to say, perhaps you shouldn't say anything.

    Sorry everyone yesterday was not a NSD as i put £10 on my food card at work. I did only use 27p though on chips, so its not really that bad. Bu now i have put £10 on im counting that as a spend for yesterday, so anything purchased on the card doesnt count as i have already accounted for it. there are a few of us in the office who are doing this too, so it is becoming quite competitive .
