No,your toothpaste glass is not really a good substitute either.
Note to self,buy more mugs ASAP.

Hi mobo1980,and welcome back!:hello:
I remember you.Igor has asked if he can rifle through your kitchen and take some of your cups?!:(

I'll sign you both up later today.Kitty has an appt. at the vet's (non-urgent) and I have prise her from her basket and into the carrier.I think she already suspects something.

Marmite you are SO organised getting this up and running already

:hello: Hi all!

Back again. After just missing target in July, I have thought long & hard about August. It is a tough month for me anyway with lots of things to pay for (car stuff ALL due...boo!) AND starting off badly as just discovered OH has overspent A LOT! AND we have a week off AND a few events to go to.

SO

I'm still going to count all 'movable' spends in an effort to not spend unnecessarily during our week off. If I allow one spend day per week for food & petrol plus 1 more for a big shop, 3 for car stuff (3 lots of car stuff so 3 days), 3 for planned 'events'....that seems generous...

But that still leaves 20 days that theoretically are NSD's?! I'm sure it should be less than that...

ok...well I tried...

I'll go for 20 NSD'sagain please Marmite!!!

And I'm going to stick with a 5-in-a-row target

BRING IT ON AUGUST!!!
:T:T:T:T:T

marmiterulesok

funkypriest welcome to the madhouse! :wave:

Budge up everyone,we've got another keen newbie nsder here!BTW,could you bring your own cup please?We've got an acute shortage.That is unless you're happy with an antique spittoon?....Naw,didn't think so! :rotfl::rotfl:
