    Panto-wise we have Chef playing Captain Hook, Igor playing Mr Smee, marmite playing Tinkerbelle, Tiddles the cat playing Nana the dog, and Hubert in full drag queen outfit playing the Dame as the pirate ship's cook.

    We still need Peter Pan, various Lost Boys, Wendy, her two brothers, various pirates, Red Indians, sea creatures.....And a ticking crocodile.

    Right, you lot! Who wants which part? Don't go skulking away on the pretext of making a pot of tea, Mrs Doyle, you are also expected to take part in this panto!

    20 NSDs is my goal & I'd like to go for a goal of 5-in-a-row

    I really can't afford anything this month really.
    the month hasn't started & I am already struggling.
    I've only got about £150 left to pay for christmas now.

    I'd like to give this a go. I'll try 20 NSD. I won't be including bills, petrol (as work pays my mileage which more than covers the cost), the main shop each week or ballet classes as spending. My main problem seems to be nipping out to the shops to get a pint of milk and ending up with £20 worth of stuff in my basket so I will be including top-up shops.

  • Alright I've just made up my mind... 15 NSDs total and 5 in a row, I must be crazy. The 5 in a row needs to happen next week, there is no way it will happen this week or after mid December.

    To make it slightly easier, I'm not counting bills, Thu grocery shopping, piano and dance classes for my child - as those are bills/regular expenses that are already budgeted for and kept in my HSBC account. The spending account is Barclays, that's where sad things happen.

    Good luck everyone!
