Sealed Pot Challenge 2 "The Return"
Comments

Hooray - got a £2 coin yesterday and DH picked up 2p in school! :j
The glass terrarium is now completely covered with a layer of coins with no glass showing through from the bottom at last. It's about a 12 inches in diameter and about 12 inches high in a hexagonal shape. We've managed to fill it about a quarter full in the past and then emptied it for holiday spending but it would be great to get it filled to the top by December.Hoping to retire earlier than 67!0 -
a no spend day today so no clunks but at docs tomorrow so maybe some roadkillMSE 7 year member :rotfl:

Evening all, well we saved a bit of money today, have signed up for Sky Broadband with their Sky Talk package free for 3 months. Nice. Will save us quite a bit of money in the long run over BT. (Otherwise known as those robbing B******s!)
Glad everyone's ok and still popping change in their pots. I notice Sparky and I are STILL getting blamed for the roadkill shortage...... lol.
Sparky - Mrs S and I are fine, I'm on day shifts for a while, but it's still dark o'clock when I get up!
Mumzy - Yay! Go you, a new chap!!! Fantastic, you deserve it hun.I am one of the 63336.'It is better to have lived one day as a tiger than a thousand years as a sheep.'
