I'll try and post a piccie of the recommended cooking equipment and store cupboard essentials from the book.

These are for the veggie cookbook but the basic store cupboard essentials should be pretty standard (sorry for size of pic, couldn't reduce it in size)

Yeah for me! Stuck to the birthday budget and came in £5 under so it is another NSD as a result as the day out birthday budget paid for coffee, parking, flowers, entrance fees and lunch - great planning worked well for budgeting. Great result!

NSD 23

Great work Fedup, sounds like you had a lovely day too. Could I ask how you calculated your birthday budget? I always seem to get it wrong.

Managed to get day #5 for me hoorah! And didn't even need to use the 'I paid yesterday' card as I made lunch at home for us all before we went out, so I'm hoping to get another NSD over the weekend.

The I paid yesterday plan was fabbie, the lets eat at home first even better, helping your NSD tally

i'd go with just an ordinary one Beanie, in fact I'd perhaps get a couple of smaller sized ones (say 4GB) rather than one large one. They get used / swapped / lost so easily it would be worse for DS to lose / misplace one that had everything on than as opposed to 'some stuff' . Perhaps get different coloured ones if poss so DS can have one for X / Y / Z and not get them mixed up (don't want to be putting photos of the Freshers week up instead of a study presentation :eek::rotfl:)

As a relatively recent uni goer, defo get plenty of USB sticks, I like the different coloured ones and also try to mark them to make them identifiable, as they do get mixed up and left. Regards the other stuff Beanie, don't know how far he is going away but if you re not sure about some stuff, could you say 'see if you need xxx' and I'll bring if for you on a visit/when you bring the washing home..... Can you still get tosted sandwich makers? Saved my life on first time away for home. :eek:

Enough of all that, thanks for kind thoughts about mystery stranger, hope he's ok too...still worried about his car though :mad:

Today is my birthday :T:T:T and I'm celebrating by declaring target reached as

NSD 20:j
:j
