    Ahoy turtles, count me in SOA. Brilliant task at short notice.

    Agree with number of outings planned have 2 already booked, would like to get out of one as travelling part expensive. Don't like to let people down though.

    Lifejacket on and looking out for icebergs. Ready to set sail.

    Hiya. Sorry about the delay. Work was hellish and I needed to recover and regroup.
    :(

    * Budgets:
    Food = £60 (not really something I can reduce but once OH has contributed, we will remove a tenner).
    Fuel = £40.


    * 15 NSDs although hoping for more.

    * Aiming for 3 exercise sessions a week. Mainly planning on doing my wiifit but also going to try and walk more.

    * Not sure on my personal challenge for now. Don't want to be boring and pick diet and weight loss again so will think of something else.

    Hope for number 8 but see that thrifty has that. Never mind. Probably should stop being superstitious about numbers and stuff. Hoping for the best this month after the disaster of October.

    Hugs to everyone.
    Mortgage: £0/£80,329.91
    Savings: £0/£6400

  • Definitely only going to be cheerleading this month. Got too much going on, or, not going on that I can't give this my full concentration. I will read and chip in when I can though. Good luck turtles!

  • Hi All :)

    Having just read through your October turtle challenge I feel like I know you! I was searching for something to focus me and think this November challenge could be it. So, can I join please?

    Will post up my commitment tomorrow. I will commit even if for just a month at a time. I've been shocking with my diary and drifted off a couple of other challenges so feel free to make me walk the plank if I don't keep on board!
