  • Up early today and took a run up to see my part of investment. All's well.

    So had to spend today - ran out of milk plus. Spent £5.00 first this year:)

    Didn't sleep too well (a couple of hours at most):( must have been the talk of going back to work, or some exciting plans that have still to be revealed :D Will get on with some more "to do's" tomorrow.

    I know it wasn't aimed at me, but I will take that challenge. I have done NSD counts by the month before so annual would be straightforward.

  • :jWelcome aboard, the more the merrier, and will stop me from straying too much, otherwise I'll have to explain to "teacher":naughty::rotfl::rotfl::naughty:

    That Lil is an influence (good or bad) as I was going to wait o/paying this month but just checked my balance after this months payment went through and was only £38.37 off rounding down to nearest 100. Paid:D.

    Bexster, hmm, sticking around for a years challenge, so that's one theory off my list, of course you could still participate from far off shores ??? :D as others do.:)
