    Here's a mini-update.

    Well done to:

    Knit Witch teetering on the brink of grabbing her 3rd target with #19! :j:j:j

    fedup-yet another teeterer at #19! :j:j:j

    Nargle is almost at double figures with a super #9! :j:j:j

    t2rry has reached a lucky,lucky #13! :j:j:j

    LINKYPIE2009 has claimed a fab #2! :j:j:j

    beanie is very close to teetering on the brink...#18! :j:j:j

    Deaf Leopard has a very respectable #9!:j:j:j

    And last but not least,marmite is claiming #14 for yesterday! :j:j:j

    My game plan for the rest of the month:today,Thursday and next Monday are my remaining spendy days.Any more than that,and I won't reach target. :eek:

    So,that's the way the cookie crumbles (in Ennessdeeshire),as said by 'Bruce Almighty' -a great film IMHO.:D

    Okey-dokey,we are an impressive 29 nsders and have tied up a massive 218 nsds!!

    I checked the figures three times,as we have had a gigantic new total of 34 new nsds since yesterday...but,yes,the figures are right!:beer::beer:

    Right,I promise this is my last post,then I'll leave you all alone.

    I'm not going to get my 4-in-a-row this month.Lots of 3s though.

    And,finally,can anyone suggest a theme for July's thread?Thinking caps,thinking caps!

    Wimbledon,ice creams?

    Last reported NSD was #12 on 15th

    Since then....
    16th - expected spends day (D/Debit, so did some other shopping0
    17th - NSD #13
    18th - unplanned spend day (sweet tooth kicked in)
    19th - NSD #14
    20th - unplanned spend day (urge for junk food kicked in after I had a call telling me my Dad had been taken to hospital with a suspected stroke. he had one 10 years ago which my Mum had to force medical attention on him for, this time he asked her to call for help. discharged that evening with 'strong aspirin'!)
    21st - semi expected spend day, but not on what I expected. was at a concert, so had expected to buy something, but the prices couldn't be justified. did, however, buy a bottle of water from the supermarket across the road after discovering they were allowing us to take plastic bottles in despite a clear 'no food or drinks to be brought in' clause with the tickets.
    22nd - took a trip out to C0stco to pick up some more offer items before they change in another week.

    One more to hit target, but not sure when it'll be. Off out shortly to speak to someone about my laptop, as it's spent the last week continually closing itself down due to overheating :o

    So...Do I use my remaining £15 spending money to buy my prescription (for something I may or may not need in the next few weeks)...or go for another NSD, which I do believe would make my target of 4 in a row ????

    Hmm up to you I guess, if you don't need the prescription at the moment then hold off and claim the NSD!
    Must use my stash up!

    It's for an inhaler for my had fever. My OH has the same inhaler and I usually only need it at night, when I am with OH so I can use his! Think ill wait for an unavoidable spendy day.
