    Do you think between us we'll be able to carry on the NSK tradition in her absence? I think so many of us have been helped by these challenges, and there's such a sense of belonging, that between us we can keep Kat's dream alive! Maybe something along the lines of one month one person takes over the running of the thread and passes the baton to another one of us the following month to run it. It's a fairly self-sufficient thread and, quite frankly, I won't feel ready to leave!

    Stand by with that thought please. I am not ready to pass the baton just yet. I may have something up my sleeve!

    Love this idea, it would be fun to see who the really hard taskmasters would be.

    Kat - you've had a productive day by the sounds of it.

    SiannieLaz - you poor thing, I hope your knee injury mends soon. You must be so fed up.

    I managed to exceed my 19 SFD target by one day and am very pleased with that. Today will be a spend day as it is grocery delivery day, other than that I have no plans to spend anything.

    Hi Folks :wave:

    Argh dont ya just hate it when you spend ages typing a post and you lose the lot! :mad:

    Anyrowd.. Siannielaz well done on your grit and determination yesterday! :A Hope you have plenty of frozen peas for your hurty limb and that youre feeling better today..

    At the close of Business for Mad March, we have a total of 17 SFDs which isnt too bad.. Managed to do well with keeping the spends low this month despite having to pay the mortgage fee. I am still going overdrawn at the end of the month since debt freedom due to relatively large one off sums that have needed paying out but I am hoping this will level out come the summer.

    Not much going on here today other than resting up and gearing up for work again, boo hiss! Wish work days would pass as quickly as days off do!

    Hope you all have a good day, cranking up ready to unleash the April Power Shower within :j
