    No NSD yesterday but finally have some laundry liquid so back to the washing basket for me. Also picked up a few other bits at L!dl but did manage quite a lot for the princely sum of £21 :A

    Today however was NSD #6, partly by the fact I was so busy at work I didn't even make it out at lunchtime.

    Still, donning the sunnies for the weekend :cool:

    Good evening folks,

    I hope everyone is well and enjoying the sunshine, as I haven't yet caught up on the posts. It is officially holiday time in NI and I am off. No NSDs to report though, as I have done the shopping and had to buy some liquid gold etc! Fantastic weather though!
    If you've nothing decent to say, perhaps you shouldn't say anything.

    Morning everyone,

    Me too Spoony, but last night I stayed even later watching the court murder case programme, quite fascinating.

    You lot are ab fab for ideas, like Jelly B simple but brilliant
    Spendy day Wednesday - petrol and groceries. Spent £10ish on food ... extravagant, I know:) It was at Mr T, and I got one of those price promise 'you could have saved' vouchers, and as I always make a point of reimbursing them straight away (so I don't forget to use it) I went back into the store and got 4 yoghurts for a grand total of 6 pence.

    Enjoy the sunshine, everyone:j

    What a good idea, they always run out before I get back to the shop, thanks I shall try that in the future, it'll still be the same day so won't have to worry about blowing my NSD

    For Friday please

    NSD 8

    Still on track :rotfl:

    Good Morning :)

    I am sorry that I haven't been around for a couple of days but I have been a bit poorly. :( Just a viral thing but it completely knocked me out for a couple of days. :(

    I know that it is my day for an update but I haven't done one - I'm sorry :o Normal service should be resumed tomorrow as I am starting to feel a bit better today.

    I haven't even had that many NSDs either :mad: Because I was so tired I gave the kids money for takeaways - I am a bad mother :o That will all change today though, I am off to Mr T (I hope) to stock up on fresh fruit and veggies :)

    Have a great Saturday - another glorious day :j:j

    Sorry to hear you are feeling poorly :( - just after your holiday too. Hope you feel better soon. I'm sure the kids will be quite happy with takeaways til you feel better....and they will survive it:D
