    Oops,yes.I see the mistake. :o

    I meant to put 338 nsds.

    This is what happens when someone who can't type types fast.

    I'm glad you like your second prize.
    Igor,it's not yours to ride! Ask first.
    Oh the liberty- taking that goes on around here.It's downright scandalous.He's only doing it to annoy me because I've hidden his chest wig and pampering knee cream.

    If you get an nsd tomorrow,you'll get another prize. ;)

    Chest wig and pampering knee cream.....the chest wig wouldn't be ginger by any chance? And the cream....is it a greenish colour and smells of lavender with a soupcon of anchovy?

    Mrs Doyle! You know that fabulous new polishing cloth and floor polish Bert Scroggins got for you? Well,..........
    One life - your life - live it!

    Maybe Knit Witch can knit him a replacement?

    He so taken up with his approaching nuptials that he'll be none the wiser...

    I'm claiming NSD12 !

    I'm not cheating, just being creative :-)
    In Belgium (where we live and work), your employer has to provide you with a meal. If he doesn't, he has to give you 'meal vouchers', usually worth €6 for every day worked; the employee pays €1.20 VAT for them, which is a good deal. You can buy food with them, from plain potatoes to fastfood burgers to michelin star meals. This 'money' I never count in my budget, so if I spend it, it doesn't show :-). Me and DH both get them, totalling about € 220/month. There is only one rule at our home: this is our food budget for the month!
    Are you wombling, too, in '22? € 58,96 = £ 52.09Wombling in Restrictive Times (2021) € 2.138,82 = £ 1,813.15Wombabeluba 2020! € 453,22 = £ 403.842019's wi-wa-wombles € 2.244,20 = £ 1,909.46Wombling to wealth 2018 € 972,97 = £ 879.54Still a womble 2017 #25 € 7.116,68 = £ 6,309.50Wombling Free 2016 #2 € 3.484,31 = £ 3,104.59

    That's great Siebrie!Well done for reaching target andbeing disciplied enough to put aside the vouchers to use for food shopping. :money: :j :j

    I assume that you both take in a packed lunch to work?

    Don't forget,the rules are up to you,so what works for one person won't necessarily work for the next.
    I don't see how it's 'cheating' anyway.

    Hmm Tattywotsit was muttering something about wanting a silver fox (I think she has been watching too many Great British Bake Off thingies!), so I can do a replacement in silver lame (Hubert - get AWAY from my yarn stash!!!!)
    Must use my stash up!

    I've just asked you a rather delicate question about said chest wig in the new July thread.
    Silver lam! sounds lovely.
    Oh,and while we're at it,Cheffie would like to know if you can do him a new truss 'just for Wimbledon' in the colours of the Swedish flag?
    Hubert (ballgirl) would like a pretty pink lam! crocheted tank top to go with her pink 'ball girl' hotpants and Madonna corset.He wants to look his best as he neighs and whinnies his way around court.
