    Good Morning :) Isn't it just glorious? The next person who says to me in a whiny voice "It's toooooooooooooooo hot" will get a poke in the eye though - so watch out.

    Front page is all up to date for another day :j

    Jedsonack - Welcome to the NSD Challenge. :T You are on the front page with a target of 15. Good Luck and watch out - you'll soon be addicted.

    Nargle - A fantastic NSD hunt :j:j I love your tales of adventure with Igor. :rotfl:



    Have a happy hump day everyone. :D

    Today will be #4. I think that is probably it for me this week as I'm out for dinner tomorrow, Friday and then have a lovely massage booked for Saturday - none of which I am sorry about! :D

    Mmmm sounds good cardi! :D

    Spendy day yesterday (needed shorts, so got a pair in TK Maxx - rrp £35 paid £9.99 plus a wee top to match from New Look for £2.99 :D) and today (no bread in the house for sarnies :p)! :o

    Much needed and long overdue haircut tomorrow. Although for a wash, cut and blow dry, plus usually an offer of tea or coffee, for £14, I really can't complain! ;):D

    Today is last day at work for a while which is fab! :D Just in time before all that good weather runs out!! :cool: No idea what way the spending is gonna be while I'm off. We've nothing arranged and will probably try a day trip here and there. Will try to get a few in at least!!!
