    How am I going to break the news to Igor? It will take all my tact and sensitivity, you know how easy he is to upset.....

    Here he comes...Ok, here goes....

    Hey! Igor!

    You know that uncle you used to have?

  • Mrs Doyle!How could you?!

    Igor is inconsolable.I'm not sure that a nice cup of tea is going to really smooth things over this time....

    Luckily twins run in the family.Beloved uncle's identical twin will be along just as soon as the sun sets. :)

    Good idea.
    What do we do about Mrs Doyle's over zealous cleaning and dusting regimen?Sedate her with my old 'valium in the teapot' routine?

    last report took me up to 14th, since when...

    15th - NSD #9, with no spends at all
    16th - NSD #10, with allowable spends only
    17th - NSD #11, with allowable spends only
    18th - spend day (another season for each of 2 DVD series)
    19th - NSD #12, with no spends at all
    20th - spend day (another season of a DVD series, plus a few items I class as 'junk' groceries - namely lemonade and frozen yogurt)
    21st - NSD #13, with allowable spends only

    2 more to get in the last 9 days of the month. 1 day will be a spend day due to a Direct Debit and I'm half expecting to spend one day this weekend (away again), so realistically looking for 2 NSDs in 7 days which should be a doddle.
