yesterday i had to buy work wear (bye-bye £34) & today i had to buy make-up & had a coffee because i felt really down & depressed, probably not a sensible reason but beats what i was feeling ... i had a look in HMV i wanted to buy a CD but put it down,because i know I had to sacrifice something for a date night or this month.
Never mind DeafLeopard,there's always tomorrow.NSD number 2 for yesterday
NSD number 3 for today.
Rock on!

Might need my fur-lined Spongebob Squarepants wellies......Igor, I don't care what the In Crowd in Transylvanian High Society wear, the Nargle does not do beige!! And tell your sisters to keep them pesky voles out of my knickers drawer!
Honestly, the riff raff we have around here!
Oh Nargle,,only five or six chiffon sarongs...double that and it's still modest...yes dahling,the Transylvanian High Society In Crowd have high standards indeed.
Let's not beat about the bush:you're going to need fur lined everything...the wind fairly does whistle up the pass at this time of year,if you know what I mean.Yes,so (pardon my French) thongs out,big woolly knickers in.
Any other questions?
Igor's uncle has kindly requested (rather strange of him,I must say) that we take our own supply of loo roll.
So,calculating a worst case scenario that means one roll per head per day,so that's 'jabs away at calculator for 20 odd minutes: 970 452 loo rolls will be needed,and that's cutting it fine....
Just as well we've got the tardis....
And we must make sure to keep out the voles.We don't want vole nest skyscrapers made out of loo roll.0 -

Igor, what in the name of all that is unholy are you doing! You have a pile, nay, a mountain of shredded paper, and a stapler???
Oh, the voles got to the toilet paper stash, ripped it to shreds, and you are trying to fix the damage before marmite notices and has one of her hissy fits?
Firstly, Igor, it is not possible to repair toilet paper with staples.
And secondly, even if it were possible, if you think I would expose the smooth and peachy Nargle bottom to toilet paper festooned with staples, you have got another think coming, sunshine!
You know what that means? Get your piggy bank open and replace all 900-odd thousand toilet rolls before She Who Must Be Obeyed notices!One life - your life - live it!0 -
Morning...*struggles to get through door without drawing attention to self; hastily grabs stray industrial sized loo roll ends & pokes them back up trouser legs, sleeves, waist bands, etc before anyone sees private, precious product, whilst patting at various pockets*...had them here minute ago...*turns complete 360 to reach elusive pocket* A-ha! Godd'em! *frisbees 2 into the C.O.D.*
Oh Narg..please don't joke about lavatorial luxuries..where some folk dream about being nekkid in public, my absolute fear is of being marooned far from a fully functioning water closet, closely followed by nowt but a cardboard tube ito assist with the "tidying up" after availing oneself of said facilities. The third is when--no matter how many times you try--the evidence of your visit won't budge *cheeks burn hot enough to cause sunburn to fellow lurkers :embarasse *
I have to get motion lotion today for some essential trips over the next few days, so I'll (try to remember) grab the fruit & veg etc to tide us over. Should I get some vaunts for the voles too, for the journey? *makes mental note to add them to the list

Butti - welcome back! Marmite is off on an island-hopping holiday tomorrow so won't be able to put you on the front page list till later this month, but never fear, you are in! Igor, get Mrs Doyle to rustle up a cuppa for Butti, anyone who can pledge 10 NSDs for the Cauldron deserves tea and fairy cakes!
Donna - cheers for your NSD, the Cauldron will be grateful! Hope your OH recovers well, and your offspring settle back into edification.
BigMumma - come on, unload those toilet rolls, we need all we can get, I hear the cuisine at Igor's uncles place is quite, er, challenging for the old digestive system....One life - your life - live it!0 -
