Just received this e-mail warning, please pass it on to all your contacts :eek:
HUGE VIRUS COMING
Hi All, checked with Norton Anti-Virus, and they are gearing up for this virus. I checked Snopes, and it is for real.
Get this E-mail message sent around to your contacts ASAP.
PLEASE FORWARD THIS WARNING AMONG FRIENDS, FAMILY AND CONTACTS!
You should be alert during the next few days. Do not open any message with an attachment entitled 'POSTCARD FROM HALLMARK,' regardless of who sent it to you. It is a virus which opens A POSTCARD IMAGE, which 'burns' the whole hard disc C of your computer. This virus will be received from someone who has your e-mail address in his/her contact list. This is the reason why you need to let all your contacts know about this. It is better to receive this message 25 times than to receive the virus and open it.
If you receive a mail called' POSTCARD,' even though sent to you by a friend, do not open it! Shut down your computer immediately.
This is the worst virus announced by CNN. It has been classified by Microsoft as the most destructive virus ever. This virus was discovered by McAfee yesterday, and there is no repair yet for this kind of virus. This virus simply destroys the Zero Sector of the Hard Disc, where the vital information is kept.Sparky0107 - Sealed pot challenge member #002.

Morning peeps,
Not checked in for a while but i'm still adding to my tin. Its very heavy now, i've been soooooo tempted to open it and see how much is in there, but will be good. I'll wait till its full then open it:p, i'll be sticking everything in my tin now till its full.
I've always enjoyed saving but not knowing how much i've got is even more of a thrill i think. I'm sad i know:o£387.39/£196.46

Hi all,
A bit late in the day but can I join in too?
Been having a look at the various challenges and this is probably the one for me as OH keeps leaving his change around the house so I have started putting it in a tub!Sealed Pot Challenge #623, Boots points = 619Current Debts: £62K:A0 -
Another good day for me, having sold a book on GreenMetropolis I went to the post office to send it off. Postage bill came to £3.29!! I handed over a £10 note and recieved £11.71 in change
Obviously the member of staff had given me a £10 note back instead of a fiver, well I didn't like to say anything.
The extra £1.71 I recieved has been split into my two pots - £1 in my masters fund and the spare 71p in my loose change pot.
Oh and for those asking about the £100, I'm still waiting for it to transfer into my bank account but when it does I will transfer it straight into my ISA so I won't be tempted to spend itSaving for a house deposit and associated costs:

£1.02 p for me today. Still got a little bit spare in my purse, but Friday is the last day for me on H/K budget, so whatever is left tomorrow goes into pot.
OH is now obsessed with this, he has got his own little pot and adds money as and when. It doesn't rattle very much ( not that I have been shaking it..you understand), but I wouldn't put it past him to put notes in his, just to confuse me. !!
Thanks for the information Sparky....will pass it on.
