    Evening everyone :wave:

    Here’s another update. It looks as though you’ve all been busy nabbing those pesky NSDs today and we have some more NSD-ers swelling our ranks, welcome:)


    Welcome to:

    :hello: each peach pear plum- hi and welcome to the madness that is the NSD thread, good to have you on board. Freeby will add you and your target of 15 NSDs to the front sheet. Good luck, you can do it, and don’t worry about yesterday, I got off to a bad start as well

    :hello: roguelawyer - hi and welcome to the madness that is the NSD thread, good to have you on board. Freeby will add you and your target of 10 NSDs to the front sheet. Good luck, you can do it, and you’ve got off to a great start with NSD no 1 already


    And welcome back to:

    :wave: armchairexpert - good to see you again, don’t worry we all drop off the radar from time to time so you’re definitely not alone. Freeby will add you and your target of 10 NSDs to the front sheet, hopefully we can help you to limit your spending before your hols. And in that vein, well done for NSD nos 1 and 2 already nabbed, that’s a great start

    :wave: bt1 - it’s never too late to join in here. Freeby will add you and your target of 15 NSDs to the front sheet. Well done for NSD no 1 so far and good luck with nabbing the rest

    Off the starting blocks with NSD no 1:

    :j:j:j beanie - a great start for you, as always:)

    :j:j:j Debtbusterintraining - working has to have some benefits.. and it’s nabbed you an NSD:)

    :j:j:j flowerofscotland - well done for the planned spends on birthday presents, think I’m going to have to do the same:)

    :j:j:j freeby - leading by example as always :A

    :j:j:j If - another great start by you, fingers crossed for lots more. Today’s pic definitely rings a bell, I remember the first time I listened to a recording of me :eek:

    :j:j:j MissE001 - you’re sounding very organised so hopefully that will nab you some more NSDs this week:)

    And over the first hurdle with NSD no 2:


    :j:j:j fedupandskint - you’re off to a flying start again this month, well done! Fingers crossed for lots more for you:)

    :j:j:j ModestyB - you’re definitely not a fool... and you’ve proved it by nabbing 2 in a row. Good luck with keeping DH in check for the rest of the month, I think you may well need it;)

    :j:j:j OodNood - well done for all the chasing, glad you captured the NSD finally :D

    :j:j:j wildcherry - and fingers crossed for lots more this week, some great planning going on there:)

    Me again, sorry :o

    I've been very good today, well so far, anyway:D, and have managed to restrain myself from spending anything so am declaring NSD no 1.

    Tomorrow will definitely be a different story and probably Thursday as well due to four birthdays coming along within the next week, including OH's. April, May and June are expensive on the birthday front here :(

    Good Morning :)

    The front page is up to date. Please can you check that you are on there and your numbers are correct. Thanks :D
    It is great to see lots more of us joining in, I thought we were going to have a very quiet month.

    I nabbed NSD #2 yesterday. I did post an ebay parcel but as the postage is paid for I am not going to count it ;) I am determined not to spend anything again until Saturday. mad.gif


    Have a happy hump day
