:hello:Hi all xxxx

(Wavy man on the left today...I'm sure he was on the right yesterday)

Marmite-

I do apologise -pretty gross,I know.

Don't worry lol, I have had just as bad

I did so want to set a good example to my pupils,but after having 5 pilchard margharitas in quick succession,I somehow drifted off into oblivion.....:o

Still a bit wobbly, Head Teacher marmite but I will survive. And whoever is responsible for the graffiti in the girls' toilets, I'll have you know it is not true. The navy blue school bloomers were already on the flagpole before I arrived, and the bit about Hubert's stiletto fetish is wildly exaggerated. They are pink with three inch heels, not four. How do you expect a donkey to walk in four inch heels, for goodness sake!

Now off to find Igor, the Cauldron of Doom needs scraping out and all the NSDs putting back in.....get yer toothbrush ready, Igor, there's work to be done........

I appear to have missed shennanigans.............probably a good job or I would never have got up for overtime today Sounds like a good (is that really the right word) time was had by all.

In case of many hangovers I shall declare number 17 quietly. I am at work until nine, ate breakfast before I came in and have no money with me so there are absolutely no plans on spending on the way home- straight home and to bed is needed, busy day tomorrow

:hello:(waves bye bye and closes door on way out very quietly )

I'm sorry that you're having a tough time.Still 5 nsds is better than none.
It's true that more than half the battle is being organised,which is not always straightforward,especially when you have a lot going on ie life in general.

Let me go off and get you a nice cuppa.

Would you like a biscuit with that?

I found that all that really helped me, popping to the shop for 'just one thing' was killing me and I find it a great help to leave money at home. Took me a while to get back into the habit of it but coming in here helps

Thanks ladies.

Will try and focus a lot more for October and really try and plan my/ our life a little more.

This thread is great. If I want to pop into a shop on my way home I find myself thinking but then it won't be a NSD and I can wait until I get home and I've been so much better at taking lunch to work this month. I've only bought it once on the way when I hadn't been shopping previously. Yesterday was another NSD so that's NSD #14

Igor was mixing them so you really have to ask? :rotfl:

It seems I missed most of the prom last night, one minute I was busy putting the finishing touches to my sparkly costume for my mid-prom performance, the next thing I hear these hooves like something out of the second coming, I'm blindfolded with something that smelled awfully like Igor's long johns, I pass out then come to locked in my sanitorium AND someone has nicked my sparkly outfit :eek: I needed a couple of Valium to get over the shock and next thing I know it's morning.

Forgot my missed NSD yesterday was due to some chocs I bought for Xmas gifts too. Bit peeved though, our local store had them on offer saying half price. Bargain I though. THEN I found some that look suspiciously the same on a wholesaler website last night advertising the SRP and this supposed offer price. :mad: it's still a good price but I feel a bit like I was conned into buying the chocs thinking they were on an offer.

NSD 14/14 for today. I'm back from holiday and hoping to see out the remainder of the month on soup, bread, coffee and wine. It's not a bad life.

Real iron nails, not donkey toenails, even if Hubert was using the punchbowl as a foot spa.


Oh, and here is NSD number 11 for the collection.
