Well considering I've not been out since I got home from work Friday evening, it's NSD No 9.
I sold a couple of things on fleabay so about £6 up on the weekend. Can't complain too much. Have also listed a couple of things this weekend so hopefully they'll sell too.
Still feeling pretty dire depression wise, watching my debt going down and making financial plans is about the only thing that's keeping me going.
Hope everyone has a good week0 -

Hope you are brushing up on your address to the haggis for the shindig :rotfl:
(Oh all right then, Igor, I suppose you could do the catering,,,,,,the ballroom at Ennessdee Towers should hold all the NSD gang members, and I am sure some of them will be happy to decorate it with bits of tartan and all that mullarkey.
No, Igor, not hog roast again. Or curried sprouts. The traditional Burns Night meal is haggis, mashed potatoes and turnips/swede. Sometimes followed by a pud featuring raspberries, oats, honey and cream. At any rate, loads of different kinds of whisky must be served. Before, during and after the meal.)One life - your life - live it!0 -
Forgot to say....today should have been an NSD, but I decided to do tomorrow's shopping today, as there is heavy snow forecast for tonight and tomorrow. So I went out, did the shop at H*me Bargain$ and A1di, stocking up with everything I think we will want in the next few days. Now I don't need to go out in the car for a few days, and hopefully any bad weather will have been and gone by the end of the week.
Well, that's the theory, anyway.

I thought he had got rid of those? and was using the humane traps these days (ie a bowl with whisky in it under a trap ala Mousetrap :rotfl:)Do not meddle in the affairs of Dragons, for thou art crunchy and good with catsup

Popping in with NSD number 6, which is poor going but everyday I've had to buy a little something!
I'm planning that next week should be a little less spendy.Trying to keep in budget.
