    I think I will take a break from the no spend thread as I am not really trying very hard and my heart is not in it. All the best @cathybird Thank you for all the help. Long may the thread continue and maybe I will come back again in the futureXX

    Sorry for being AWOL - illness has forced this.  However, the illness has ensured that I've added another 6 no potting days, so I'm up to 10/15 NSDs.
