First nsd for me so 1/15. Unfortunately it's mainly due to a virus so can't go out. Can't work up the enthusiasm to spend on line. Breathing is a bit of a challenge but at least it's cheap.4

First NSD for yesterday for me. It was harder than I thought. It’s insane the amount of time I spent scrolling for things and how aware I had to be not to press the ‘add to basket’ button.6

NSD number 2 for me today. Went to see the Pogues ❤️ and had a gorgeous Indian streetfood ‘small plates’ meal my partner paid for, as well as a drink at our hotel. Next two days definitely not NSDs so I’ll be back on it from Monday I hope. 🤗
