    My usual starter of 10 with 4 in a row please Marmite!
    Must use my stash up!
  • I shall go in for this again. Don't think I'm going to hit November's target of 15 and with the day that shall not be mentioned approaching with me not having done any of the shopping for it, I fear I may have a few spendy days. With this in mind I'm going to start on 10 NSD's for December.

    I'll try for 10 nsds for December. Think it will take a bit of planning though. Looking forward to the tropical holiday - sitting here with cold feet :(

    Wo-ho! We're goin' to Barbados deedly-doo! Singgg darn you!
    Just luuurve de tropical holiday ting goin on here man, any ting to stop us freezing our wotsits.....Igor! Pass de rum punch here, de Nargle is in holeeday mood now!

    What an inspired suggestion from our great leader marmite - now can I suggest something? You know how dire punishments are inflicted on those who use the word "fail?" (No, marmite, I am protected by those inverted commas, so put Shawn back in his cage please, before Igor gets out his recipe for shark fin soup). Well,as we are escaping from all the seasonal malarkey and going on our tropical holibobs, let's impose a punishment on all those who say the word "Christmas" on this December thread! That will be a challenge for us, but we could still discuss seasonal matters and find all sorts of inventive ways to do it without that C word. Marmite, could you sort out a prize for the best alternative word used by an NSD gang member? Just to add a bit more fun and lunacy to the challenge.

    I will aim for another 16 this month - I won't have chance to spend if I am lying on a tropical beach having coconut oil rubbed in all over by sun tanned chaps wearing palm leaf loincloths....oh Hubert! This nice young man has some palm leaf salad for you to nibble on.....(Down Nargle! Control yourself!)
    One life - your life - live it!

    I'd like to aim for 10 and 3 in a row again. Mentally listing the days I know will be spend days. I think I can do it!

    ETA: I'm doing the £1 a day for Christmas 2015 challenge so I won't be counting that.

  • Hi Marmite :D thank you for running this thread again. This month will be a challenge but I have decided that Christmas presents don't count as they are planned and budgeted for.

    So my target is 15 NSD's and I am going to try for 4 NSD's in a row :)

    I am enjoying having money left in account at the end of the month :T
