Thought today wAs going to be a NSD But went online and found that the lights that we want for the living room and dining room have been reduced until Tuesday with 20% off. So I couldn't let it go and had to forfeit my NSD.

Sounds like a wise spend Gem-gem.

Now tomorrow, Igor, you need to organise the gang to clean up the grounds of Ennessdee Towers. Most of the leaves are off the trees, now, so there are a few acres of leaves to sweep up, the remaining apples to pick and store for the winter, the remains of the bonfire to clear away, plus a general clean and tidy of the front porch and patio.

Mrs Doyle will be on standby with tea and egg sarnies of course, not to mention your pilchard mini quiches. Once that is done the whole of Ennessdee Towers needs a good clean, paint and declutter, so that it will be ready for the festive season next month.

And knitwitch mentioning the skating outfit she is making for Hubert has reminded me of the skating tournament we will be hosting early next month, so we have to make sure the indoor skating rink in the new extension is all ready in working order.....

So, make sure everybody has an early bath, bed and cup of cocoa tonight, and set the alarm for 6.00 - nice early start to the day!

Goodness,what a busy day it's going to be...to bad I can't help.It's my monthly spa day appt.

I'll be thinking of you all as I lie back being pampered and beautified during my deluxe mudbath/aquacycling/wrinkle plumping rejuvination combo all-inclusive dewy youth pack.

No worries, marmite, we will leave the best job for you. All the bathrooms at Ennessdee Towers are long overdue a proper clean, and the baths, basins and toilets are of the finest glazed porcelain, so need extra careful cleaning without using harsh chemicals or bleach.

So, Igor will dig out some chamois-lined rubber gloves for you, and a bar of pure Castile soap and a soft cloth. Probably take a day or two to shift all the limescale and those curious stains at the bottom and under the rims. Something for you to look forward to.

Thank you donna....the cauldron was just grumbling about needing 'a leetle waf-er' to finish off his hearty supper. :j:j

So I'm late joining in, but I'm sure you won't mind!

Reached my target of 23 NSDs last month, but this time I'll go for a slightly more modest 20. I've taken a few days off as I know there's some additional spending to be done this month for birthdays and such.

Not much going on yet though - today is NSD #7.

After much knitting of brow and sweat n tears our resident 'Royal Counter of the NSD' -Hubert- has unravelled the hodge podge of numbers and come up with a super total of 65nsds leaving us with an impressive average of

3 nsds each!

Woohoo!
