The Fantastically Festive December NSD Challenge

Just popping in to report NSD #8 today.
Yesterday was nearly NSD. We went on a coach trip to visit a cruise ship berthed at Tilbury. We had a free welcome on board glass of wine and free wine throughout lunch, so didn't need to spend anything.... but when I'm on a coach trip I always tip the driver and the tour guide as they work so hard. So I gave my usual tip - at least I didn't just fritter the money!Early retired - 18th December 2014
