  • And well over 1000 posts :)

    Well spotted!

    As for the 'part two',I'm not really sure what you mean-do you mean the post on the first page (where everyone is listed with their target ) being split in two?That sounds like a good solution.

    I think I might start a "part two" a wee bit later in the month, then I can spread us all out over the first two posts. Does that make any sense??? What does everyone else think?

    Freeby Why don't you use/edit post 4, just for this month :think:

    Then you don't have to split any threads :beer:

  • So sorry i've been missing, think i had a touch of the lurgy that was going round. Convinced myself it was carbon monoxide poisoning after watching corrie though, so spend on Friday to get a carbon monoxide monitor, which told me there was no problem & i just had the lurgy!!

    Woke up this morning feeling much more like my normal self, so have had a day with the soggy paintbrush, meaning that i've only had 1 spend day since i last posted, so that's number 9 now please Freeby :j:j

    I promise to keep up more often from now on... honest!!

    Oh dear, it sounds like the plague has hit a lot of you this week. Sympathies to everyone stuck indoors with various lurgies (although it does sound nice and cheap!).

    Captured NSD6 over the weekend; took the girls to the zoo because we had three days left on our family membership, so that was free, and packed enough snacks and things to make sure no little coins snuck out of the wallet. Can't say the same for Saturday, though; we've been on a massive reorganise and decluttering binge, the house is looking great, but let's just pop down to !KEA, says the husband, no harm in getting a few bits for storage...we all know how that story ends, right?

    Today will be NSD7 - have brought breakfast, lunch and a snack to work, and I have a meeting that will stretch over the lunch hours so no sneaking out to the shops for me! 7:14 is the best ratio I've ever managed on this challenge, am feeling quite chuffed.

    Spendy day today - and more so than I expected it to be despite not getting to C0stco :eek:

    Didn't get to Traff0rd Centre as OH forgot to bring the vouchers he has for one of the stores there (won them at his works Christmas do), and after checking what else he was going looking for I was able to tell him he wouldn't be able to get there. He's decided to join me in a spot of running, so wanted running shoes and clothes - so I took him out to a sports shop I've not been to before!

    He came back with 2 pairs of trousers, 5 tops, 6 pairs of socks and a pair of running shoes, while I came back with 2 more swimming costumes, a nose clip, 4 microfibre towels (2 bath towels and 2 hand towels), a pair of lycra shorts, a large washbag (to keep in my locker at work for after swimming) and a food flask (my 1 litre one is a bit big, and they had one with a 0.8l capacity).
