    junior_j good luck with slimming world!! :j

    Wow, loads of good clunks in the pots today, well done everyone! :beer:

    I added a fairly modest 22p to Terry today - as I grabbed my exercise mat on the way to dancing I found the change hidden underneath it on the floor! I have a horrible feeling it belonged to OH, so consulted him as I put it in the pot!! :D

  • Hi everyone just a quick post (via my iPod as my comp doesn't work) to say that I put in 34p, I didn't get chance to go to the town as it was freezing and the roads were covered in snow, I managed to find that in my old handbag. I am going to go to the shops tomorrow to buy a 2009 chunky diary. So I should get a bit of change from that! :D

    I am only me, no pretences, no second guesses.. It's the best I can do, I'm sorry if that's not good enough for you... I'm sorry I'm not good enough for you :A
  • Hey well this week has been crap! Iv been reading what other people manage to put in their pots and ours sounds pathetic lol. Well there is £1.13 to go into my Mom/'s master pot (which she doesnt know about until tomorrow lol) Its all safer that way! no temptation!!

    Hope everyine is finding runaways to go in the pot!

  • hey I got a number woo hoo - off to update signature - various pennies added today - by devious and undevious means. Well if anyone actually tidied up around here then they would be able to stash the cash.

    Got given ANOTHER campervan piggy bank today (not moaning) but I now have 3 campervan piggie banks and a toast rack - almost a wee fleet of them - its like they are all breeding or migrating or something. If I fill all the bellies then my word we might be able to drive the real campervan (it does like to drink petrol!!!!!)

    Ta for my number woooooooo hooooooooooooo
