Spoon - is that the Chic who did Le Freak (c'est chic) ? You little 70s raver, you! I bet you can even do the rowing boat dance to Oops Upside Your Head......

Flashback to Nargle at a party having consumed a bit too much vin rouge and dancing to Hey Rock and Roll, Blockbuster and Tiger Feet...as well as Oops Upside Your Head....then The Timewarp.....

It is indeed, Nargle, and I'm definitely a 70s raver!! Yep I can do the rowing boat dance... getting up afterwards is, however, is a very different story nowadays!!:rotfl::rotfl:

Can you do the Tiger Feet dance though, that's the question?:D

spoon Chic made some great music,so cool.

They did, marmite, and Nile Rogers is still going strong now, no idea for how much longer as he has prostate cancer but I'm keeping my fingers crossed. He's made some great music with Daft Punk on their new record, well worth a listen

Hi everyone :wave:

While I’m updating the totals though I would catch up with a few of you...

HAW - hope the leg waxing was as painless as possible:eek: and you had a good shopping trip today. 10 NSDs is a very decent total, and achieved without too many kicks up the bum - well done you!!:T:T


wildcherry - no need to redeem yourself, hun, 10 NSDs is a good number to have nabbed, be proud of them and the fact that they’ve helped to curb your spending, that’s the main thing.:T:T
Hope you manage to cope without your tumble drier, electrical appliances have a habit of breaking down when they’re most needed!!:eek:


MissE - we can’t predict other people’s actions so don’t beat yourself up about your friend treating you to dinner. :A Friends are more important than NSDs and 14 is a great number to have nabbed, be proud of them:T

fedup... - great total this month, yay and well done for sticking to those budgets:T:j:T

Nargle - I have no idea where the year has gone either.... it’s really scary!!:eek:

Jelly - loving the recipes, thank you :A
Hope your friend’s birthday celebrations went well

marmite - your life sounds about as exciting as mine.. I’m currently pondering some new curtains!! :rotfl: Well done on the bargains and presents, very organised, and on the new wok. Stir fried veggies are yummy, happy cooking!:T

zenshi - I agree, no cash definitely makes for NSDs, I’m in the same position this month!!:eek:

ETO - well done for getting hubby on board on the meal planning, that’s going to make a big difference to your spending habits:A

Red - sorry about your internet issues, dongles are such a pain!!:eek::mad:

IF - hmmm.. I think you’ve found the hound of the baskervilles, I can’t think of anything else with a bite that size!! :rotfl::rotfl:

Sazzie - thank you, and thanks to you for all the updates this month, you’re a star :A
Oh dear, sorry about the spends today but well done for having the money for your car tax, woohooooo!! :T

kathy - sorry you’ve had such a hectic week but well done for the 9 NSDs you’ve nabbed.. you haven’t been bad at all, that’s a great total for your first month back, well done you!! :T:T

Candlewick - well done for reducing your spending from last month, go you!! :T:T


and..... I've managed to nab 24 NSDs this month... it's surprising what having no money and no job can do........

:hello:

Hi all xxx

Thanks for the encouragement Spoony :kisses:. I am signing in quickly from work to give me the impetus to get home without spending, the only good thing about working on a Sunday is that the shops are mostly shut when I leave LOL.
I spent far too much yesterday:eek: and still need to get a couple of little bits for going away next week but I am going to leave them until Monday so hopefully I get to my target this month.

Will check in later with final count for June

This thread is a real help to me, it really shows when I don't get in so mental note to self to try to make time to check in:rotfl:

:hello:

MissE001

Very pleased to report in with final NSD yesterday - 15 / 15 :j:j

Not one today though - still in my jammies and I've already bought new bedding for DS's room and a new phone cover to replace my tatty one. Fortunately, I still had money left on an Amazon voucher so only cost me £1.49

Enjoy the rest of the weekend

fedupandskint

I'm declaring my final NSD for June as I'm not going out anywhere today or online spending either

Target met of 25 NSDs

Thank you all for running the thread it's helping me gain control of my spending and finances - freeby, spoony, sazzie, if and anyone else I've missed out - I wouldn't be here without you!

See you all in July!
