    I love fish pie, don't eat it enough...:p

    I read that as 'don't eat it though' at first,which didn't really make sense.... :rotfl:

    Thanks marmite I am so excited. Moving in tomorrow...

    I'm not sure what my spending status is going to be the next few days but I am hoping I can get settled in soonish and get back to being NSD.

    EM xx

    Good luck for today!
    I hope that you don't get too stressed.Do you have enough help?
    If you end up getting a takeaway today,we'll all understand. :)

    Pollygarter for some reason I forgot to add your 1st nsd to the front page. :o
    I'll do it now....
    I use the 'thank' button to let me know that I've copied down the number,but sometimes i get a bit caught up,and go through the posts clicking 'thanks' and forgetting to copy down said number.
    I'm only human. :o

    Yesterday was NSD #4, though it was hard work as I was notified that no fewer than four DVDs I'm watching had dropped to the price I was willing to pay :eek: (Though by the time I got the notification for one it had already gone back up, so really only 3 that were hard to avoid).

    One of them (a 5 disk box set,and the one that was hardest to ignore) has continued to price drop overnight, and is now at about the lowest I can realistically expect it to reach. But I don't want to spend until Monday, so I'll either be a nervous wreck by then or the price will have gone back up and I'll have to wait for another chance ;)

    Hubert will be riding in today's Derby...yes,you heard right!

    So,picnic baskets are all ready for the outing.Cheffie was up all night preparing Swedish meatball sandwiches and his now legendary curried sprouts mini quiches.We have chocolate moose for pudding and plenty of peach and garlic chardonnay .

    The Tardis is looking a bit shabby,but I'm just about to whizz round with a duster and the hoover....

    Best bib and tucker,and ladies,sparkly high heeled spongebobs only please! ;)

    Now,as for the donkey and jockey...hmmmm

    Igor has managed to drop a few stone,but IMHO,he looks drastically dehydrated.I just hope he can stay the course.

    Igor,lederhosen and sock suspenders are not appropriate attire...where's your lovely knitted jockey outfit that Knit Witch has just made you?
    Talk about gratitude...

    What do you mean,you can't find your lucky unmentionables? :mad::mad:

    Hubert looks fetching in his prettiest frock,summer hat and daintiest summer sandals....oh dear.
    Hubert you can't gallop in heels...

    What do you mean you can't gallop? :eek:

    Hubert apparently has just mastered the trot...cantering is next week's lesson,followed by galloping the week after....even more difficult in heels,I imagine.

    I think I know what today's result will be. :(

    At least we all will have a nice day out. :)

    I'm impressed by your self control.

    Well done on #4. :j

    Hope you're feeling better.

    The sun is up where I am but I doubt it will be a scorcher here. The wind is howling and beating the house down. Not looking forward to going out to work later.

    I hope you'll enjoy your scorcher.

    Checking in with NSD 5/15 and my first 5 in a row. Whoop! Whoop!
    The Only Girl it wasn't that scorchy in this zone either. Definitely tended towards windy.
