  • Hi everyone. I hope you all had a good Christmas and New year. I have only just got my new internet connection sorted I've been without since the end of November. I missed the big count but I was thinking of you all. I was an unofficial member last year but I did really well, I made OH take the money to the bank as I couldn't lift the bag! We are now retired so and have just moved so I don't expect to do nearly so well this year.
    Thank you for my number, I know it will make me try harder. I only managed just over £5.00 for the whole of December.
