    Not an NSD

    Dental checkup this morning lost me that, so this afternoon I wandered (speed walked according to neighbours :D) up to Mr T in the next town to stock up on their fabric conditioner while it's on offer. 6 litres should keep me going a while as I bought my last 5 litres at the start of June (but don't think I started using it until mid-July) and I still have enough for at least the rest of this month. So I might need more around October time ;)

    NSD 5 and 6 yesterday and today! Today is a bit skin-of-the-teeth though, I may still have a basket open on a tab somewhere with some sports kit... it's all excellently priced, I will use it, I could do with some replacements, I just don't need it. I have negotiated with myself and agreed to sleep on it. :A
