    Day 2 today due to the inevitable Bank Holiday rain! Hopefully not too much for the gardens and lotties, but at least the water butts will be full...

    NSD deux. Not a surprise as the weather is wet so who wants to go shopping. Am amazed I’ve restrained myself from any online purchases

    Hey! First time trying this and getting to be debt free.

    As it’s my first month, I’m gonna say 12 NSD’s with petrol or groceries excluded.

    None so far this BH weekend but hoping with work from tomorrow, there’s a good shout for 2/3 this week with taking lunch to work if I’m not WFH.

    Should help with my budgeting too 🤞

    I have made it to NSD3 today 🎉. Thanks Cathybird. It was sunny, but cold in the far north until 30 mins ago when the sky turned black and the rain came in!
