    After a spendy few days I finally bagged NSD 3 yesterday. Hoping for another today...

    That's great Aphidgirl: #3 sorted! :j
    Just a quick update from me: NSD No. 7, LTW no. 10.

    I am hoping tomorrow will be another NSD. I don't foresee any spendy day before the weekend as the fridge/freezer/cupboards are still well-stocked. Might run out of bananas but plenty of other fruits to fall back on, so I will stretch these NSD's as much as I can. Being a newcomer to this forum, i consider it an achievement to have 7 NSD's and it's not even mid month yet. Last month, the most I had was 6. Keeping my fingers crossed that I would have my 3rd target of 20. I live in hope,

    You are doing well,#7 bagged already! :j
    Some people keep a little change pot from recent purchases and use it to,say,buy bananas when they've run out.It doesn't really count as a spend,unless you choose to count it that is. :o

    Nargle a big,fat #6
    just what the cauldron was looking for! :j

    kerri gt I vaguely remember a hedge cutting related accident last year,involving ...a finger? :eek:
    Well done on the purchase. :)

    Poor kitty :( I'm sure she will miss you like crazy but just think how happy she will be to see you :)
    Paris was amazing and everyone was so nice . We had a fantastic time :)
    We are going to a hotel in Turkey which is right on the beach and says it's nice and relaxing. Just what we were looking for :) I have never been to Turkey before but a friend goes a few times a year and she swears by it. (Remains to be seen if she will still be a friend when I get back :rotfl:)

    When there were the two of them,someone came in twice a day to feed them etc and they were company for each other.Now that Foxychops is on her own it's more complicated.You never know.I might find a cat sitter to stay in the flat...
    Paris is an amazing place.Glad you liked it.
    I hope that you have a great time in Turkey...and keep your friend! ;)

    Had enough cash for the meal so yesterday was a NSD as was today! So that's 9/20! Woohoo! Will be a spend day tomorrow, then hopefully Sat and Sun might be NSDs, got a garden thing on Sunday I am very excited about at a National Trust, free entrance but might buy some plants with my birthday money that's left!

    Hi All

    Managed to sneak NSD #3 :j

    But for the 11th of the month is badddddddddd...:o

    I managed to do some shopping yesterday and therefore cooked tonight and I'm now hoping the spendyness will be less.

    Still got a house full off boxes to unpack :eek:
