    Hello Everyone,:snow_laug

    I am really fed up with this weather too! Middle son is prowling around like a caged animal as his football matches have been cancelled for about 4 weeks on the trot. Roll on summer (if we get one!)

    Happy to report in NSD 11 Yesterday was a large food shop at A!ld!s. The trolley was literally overflowing, food falling all over the place but the till total was only £122. Should see us through for a couple of weeks.

    Have a great evening :D

    Remember the beautiful Spring we had last year? It was followed by a cr*ppy wet summer. So, my Narglelogic brings me to the conclusion that if we have a rubbish Spring.....I'll let you fill in the rest.

    Hello,

    Please may I join?

    If so I would like to set 6 No Spend Days for the remaining of March. This should give me a good indication of what I can pledge for April.
