Third consecutive NSD, and fifth for the month.

A bit lonely stuck in the house, but listening to cricket while reading is free entertainment, and I have plenty in the cupboards if I get motivation to cook.

That must be really hard,doing a lot of overtime.Do you get any kind of compensation,like a bonus?

I find it hard to actually find clothes that I like,that suit me,and find using the changing rooms a complete stress.For a few years now,when I find something I really like,I buy more than one.I think that I've found my way back onto the straight and narrow though,budget-wise.

Yes, I get the bonus of being employed :rotfl:

I guess it's ok buying more than one of something so long as you wear them all.

Speaking of which, had a new dress on today at work and three...yes three separate comments from people saying how nice it was

Yes it is a great feeling. Knowing that in four days I've saved myself £8.97 on fast food is amazing. Just goes to show the hidden cost of things that you don't see when your enticed into a restaurant after seeing a £2.99 meal deal offer.

When I was in school the routine used to be to go into the town centre and go to either McDonalds or KFC and would normally go either every school day and usually once on the weekend OR around 3/4 times every school week.

I must be getting old but there is a boys college I go past on the way to work, the number of them starting their day with cans of red bull and bags of crisps / sausage rolls / other Greggs fayre amazes me. I guess my school wasn't so near the town centre and in sixth form we were allowed to leave the premises at lunchtime, but I go past the takeaway places and they are packed with the boys at lunchtimes. Nevermind the cost, but it's the shocking diet as well that worries me.

Anyway, off my soap box now. No NSD today - pud needed food and eyebrows needed doing.

Pole class was really empty tonight, think it was the weather so two more new moves tried, Jackknife and Embrace (the latter deff the most painful) - need to note all these down and now perfect them - I'm not happy just doing a move once and saying I can do it, I like to practice it and learn how to use it alongside other moves.

So what have you been eating at lunchtime?I'm just curious...

Here's another challenge that might interest you.

No,you're not getting old,I agree with you.Eating the same rubbish everyday is shocking.

And please give a warm Ennessdee Towers welcome to my Number 7 NSD!!!
Amazing what 12 hours confined to the workplace can do......

Ok, Igor, I know it is a fortnight away, but you need to start preparing the Roman baths for the end of month party....you need not think any of our refined and genteel members are getting in the pool after you've been washing your second-best Sunday Y-fronts in it!
Not to mention Hubert's daily swimming lesson.......memo to self, do urgent Approved Foods order for consignment of super-strength Dettol....

Igor,no,that is not what the kitchen sink is for!!!:(:(:( How many times have I told you to use the washing machine??!!!!!
No,the washing machine is not a freezer unit for your gerbil kedgeree!:eek:

The problem is that he was brought up to use a scrubbing board and mangle,and the last time he used it,there was a Y-front blockage problem,and he's still in a state of shock.:eek:

Yeh,that's a great bonus...I sometimes wonder if there are just too many people chasing not enough jobs.

That's nice to have a few compliments about your dress.:)

Off to google those moves...You must have such strength in your core and arms.I can barely do two push ups.

Sorry, I'm new here and wasn't quite sure of the rules. I'll try to target another four NSDs this month, so nine in total.
