Ah @leftatthetrafficlights that sounds a lovely day for you all.Early call for NSD number 6 for me today. My partner is doing a big shop but I pay towards this and bills by one DD each month, this contributes to me being able to record so many NSDs for sure. This week I did do an essentials shop as he’s been away with work.1
