    Unexpected NSD 9 today!

    I need fuel, and a few bits of food but have been invited out for dinner tonight and I'm taking a pudding instead of buying wine :D So I decided to stay in and can make food last an extra day or so

    I do have my son home for a week! Being a Royal Marine he has hollow legs :eek: and costs a fortune to feed but he's very good and will most likely chip in with the food
    LBM.....sometime in 2013 £27,056. 10 creditors
    June 20.....£7,587.....3 creditors left 72% paid

    £26,200 on interest only part of mortgage (July 16)...will chip away £17,103
    £49,200 repayment mortgage ( July 16) £37,764

    Well it may be nearly midsummer but it blooming well don't feel like it! Temperature around 18 degrees but with a cool breeze, meaning the shorts went on this morning then got swapped for jeans after an hour.

    (No, Igor, I doubt if we will be needing the pool cleaning out ready for the NSD midsummer bash. Unless a heatwave appears as if by magic. Watch the weather forecast....)

    Avoided a trip to town today so that makes a super 7 Chateau Nargle NSDs for the collection....

    (Yes, Igor, I suppose we could all wear wellies and have a welly wanging contest. And the Good Ole Boys could do their cabaret spot wearing mackintoshes and sou'westers, but they'll still freeze when they do the drag queen cabaret bit.....oh, you will provide them all with thermal vests? Very attractive indeed....)

    Even more scary - next Friday is the longest day of the year :eek: Downhill to the dark nights after that - although fingers crossed for a bit of summer in between please :D

    Ah yes,it'll soon be Christmas!Apologies all for using the c word.:o

    I'm very chuffed here,as today was meant to be a spendy day,however I never managed to get out of the door,so no money was spent.:j
    I've had a pleasant day of mooching about and doing some reading.

    This means that I'm claiming today as #10!:D

    Thanks for the weel fired rolls explanations...still can't picture them though,but they sound like nice rolls.

    Hope the tablet goes well kerri.

    Candlewick hope you feel well rested after such a busy week.

    Well done everyone :beer:,

    The day started well, but i gave in to temptation this evening and bought a load of snacks and drinks a short time ago, so bang goes today's NSD :cool:. Close but no cigar.

    Better luck tomorrow :).

    If anyone deserves an NSD amnesty it must be you :) Just keep him well fed. You must be very proud:T

    Howdy all

    Spendtastic day today but it is a win. I got 3 Fathers day gifts and cards for under £20. 3 happy daddy's :) one happy pocket. I pulled £14 out to put in an envelope for my mumsy who is coming next week & I owe it her for a gift. The shopping finally arrived & a good old complain on the phone about grams and broccoli stalks plus the no-show yesterday meant I got my delivery charge & a couple of items which were not as they should be, refunded. £9.56 back out of £41

    Tomorrow DD & I will get our painting groove on for the grand-daddys for Monday & Tuesday respectively. Then I shall print photos for the half price photo frames I got & bobs your uncle. NSD tomorrow definitely!
