    Just thought i should let you know that i have had to spend my savings from my seal pot. Managed to save £38.70 but i was broke from the start of this month so had to cash it in. I guess its better to spend the savings than to put it all on the cc. anyway starting again from today 10p to my pot :) x

    Thanks for that oops, it was a fantastic time and the autumn colours were superb! DH's Birthday in it too, we had a terrific day, evening too!:rolleyes:

    Re "Sealed Pot 3" oops.... you didn't really think you had a getting out option anyway surely?! :eek: Not after all the time you've been here on the original too. Oh no, you're an honorary member, like sparky, stunty, LC and a good many others, stuck with us!! :D

    Thanks a lot LC2 , so many folk moan about the weather but at times when it's wet I think all you need to do is ignore it and look at the magnificent scenery surrounding you! :D

    Not to worry focus, at least it was there for you. It's history now, so press on with that first 10p and build on it! :T

    Sue. New friends wishing to join us, please just ask and I'll be with you ASAP.

    Hi Sue-UU,

    good to see you back from your jollies, I'm glad you've had a good time. Sparky has done an excellent job keeping us all in line.

    Everything has been fairly quiet here at Kerfuffle Kabin, I can't wait to open my pot and see how much has accumulated. I know exactly what it's going to get spent on too.............postage for things to the UK, oh what a thrilling life I lead, lol.

    Me too! Mine happened in September so started again this month only to have to use the £20 I'd managed to save. Unlike last time I'm not even embarrassed, just grateful it was there :j

    I'll start on 1 November.

    Almost gave in, to be honest but after being turned for (another) consolidation loan, I put it in the freezer :T For extreme emergencies only.

    Hallo all

    Welcome back Sue. Did a mystery shop today so a few pennies in the potties tonight.:T

    I have a stinkin' cold though - so am feeling a bit sorry for myself, just sitting here waiting for some food to be delivered so that I can eat something nice.:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

    And Sparky....i know it's just an oversight...but earlier in the year we had the debate and I'm the original LC - LC2 should not be nicking my name. lol:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Laters LCxxx
    :grin: Save me from spending...
