    Thank you to MissE001 for taking up the reins and bringing us a shiny new thread. Thanks to our lovely updaters too. :A:A:A
    Can I be put down for 10 nsds this month please. I barely scraped in on target in October so I'll try and do better.We're going on a Remembrance Day weekend but should not have to spend anything as it's all paid for.

    Hugs to Freeby, If, Spoony, BDINI and everyone else who's missing.

    Welcome to our newbies and returnees.

    Hugs to all who need one.

    Forgot to add, today is NSD 1

  • ok so as a newbie I'm taking the plunge on this challenge. It won't be easy but here it goes. :money:

    I want to achieve:

    10 NSD's

    with: 2x3consec. days

    It's going to be tight as I really have been trying hard in Oct to reduce pennies spent but I am DETERMINED. 'Pennies make....' and all that :) Also I think the DFW board should be inspirational this month.

    I am excluding public transport to appointments, interviews and evening course but trying to go all Nov without using public transport without burst and busting! (mobility/pain issues :undecided )

    I want to treat myself by seeing one friend a week without spending a penny on cake or coffee in a cafe and to include their visit within day travel ticket. I am also allowing myself one new ecig liquid to encourage myself for the 'take-two stoptober challenge'.

    Good luck everybody :j:T

    ....Now gotta go find that big calender so I can [STRIKE]doodle, scribble abuse[/STRIKE] :o I mean...mark off the days and write encouraging messages to myself :rotfl:
