Just looking at October and I had 7 NSDs. I failed my target it is true, however, I would not have had even one without posting on here. For November I would like to record my first NSD please

Thank you @cathybirdIf you have built castles in the air, your work should not be lost; that is where they should be. Now put the foundations under them
