  • Hi all

    Busybumbleebee hope you are enjoying your delayed Mother's Day meal.

    Today I realised that I'm developing a more NSD mind as today I was going to buy some stamps but decided 1 purchase was not worth losing a NSD. Especially when I'm doing my shopping on Wednesday.

    Today 1 June 1 NSD =1/12 NSD.

    This has never happened to me before so I very pleased.:)

    DFF
    RBS £2,043.50 @0% until April 2014
    Virgin £2,522.78 @ 0% until November 2015
    Total Debt £4,566.28
    SPC 7 315. Emergency Fund 300/1000.

    So I'm off to a good start for my first NSD challenge 1 NSD for me today!!

    Well, I hope you agree with me counting that as I was a bit spendy this morning but was early hours in a terrible nightclub and I'm counting that as yesterday! :rotfl:

    Tomorrow is looking hopeful too :D

    Hope you're all enjoying the weekend! X

    Well NSD #1 has been nabbed and tucked away- did pick up a few foody bits to see us through the week in A$da and then a fence sprayer (decided that it was worth the £20 to save us having to spend an age with the paint brush) in H0mebase but they both came from the house account.

    lovely sunny day here and not planning on doing anything tomorrow that involves spending so fingers crossed for a second one.

    I joined this challenge in Aug 2011, just tallied up that since then I've had 465 NSD (excluding this June) over 34 months (took a month off last Nov) - which is roughly 1034 days. So I've spent nearly 45% of the past 34 months NOT spending :beer:
    Feb 2015 NSD Challenge 8/12
    JAN NSD 11/16

    Come on - where are you all.


    June has begun :D
    Cooeeee... I'm here, Freeby, I just seem to have forgotten to sign up:o:o

    Please could I go for 15 NSDs and 5 in a row
    I'm hoping to get more than 15 but I'm approaching it in stages this month, thinking that a change in tactic might help after two indifferent months :think:

    NSD no 1 nabbed today, so that's a good start for me :j:j

    Spoon, thanks for the message on the May thread. I am ok but have been a bit down and bored this past week so in a sadistic kind of way am looking forward to getting back to work next week and into some sort of routine when I seem to be a little more disciplined. I've had my penultimate check-up at the doctor and have a final hospital one on Tuesday.
    CW

    Glad you're OK, CW, but I can understand you being a bit down and bored without your normal routine, hopefully you'll feel a bit better next week once you get back to normal again. Good luck with the appointment on Tuesday, hope it goes well x

    ... and YAY to the other NSDs, well done you :j:j:j:j


    Mornin' all :hello:

    Lovely to see you again and great news about the (lack of) poison dwarf:j:j

    A big WELCOME to our lovely newbies and a huge WELCOME BACK to our lovely returnees, great to see you all again.

    Right, that's enough waffling from me for now, I'll be back.......:eek::D

    'I do love it when the first of the month is on a Saturday - but am dreading the mass exodus of funds from my bank account Monday!'

    Of course - that's why the bank balance looks so healthy - thought I was going to have to answer questions on Monday !!

    Defo not NSD for me today - but not expected.

    Sunday & Monday here I come ......:rotfl:

    Good Morning :)

    I am going to cheat on my update this morning :o and just say


    Well done to everyone who collected their first NSD on the 1st of the month.

    and to everyone else,

    I hope they come rolling in really soon.
    :j:j:j


    Sorry it is a cheat but it's better than a update that says the same thing over and over.

    Right, I am off out to enjoy the sunshine which is splitting the sky for the second weekend in a row. :T I want to enjoy every minute,

    Have a great Sunday everyone. :D
