Hi Little Chicken. Well done! Fingers crossed you get the job.
My interview went okish... I'm not getting my hopes up too much though in case I end up disappointed. Will hopefully have a decision about it tomorrow though.
I feel exactly the same, there's no point getting stressed about these things.:A
Will keep my fingers and toes crossed for you.;)
Save me from spending...

Now my pottery piggy looks really poorly.
So if any of you find that nice shiny £2 coin......it just could be mine.........
Well then elizabunny,
That'll be stunty & me, roaming around "somewhere in the sticks" looking for a shiny £2 coin
. You'll have to do a bit of darning on DH's pockets, so that no rogue couns will fall out :rotfl: :rotfl:
No coinage for a couple of days for me, so will have to make it up over the weekend

I'm sorry I have been so bad , I emptied my pot

I decided there was to much money in it to leave it lieing about the house and am taking it to the bank.
The good news is I had £386 in it , daughter sat with tweezers and got all the money out so as not to break the terrimundi pot lol Had £305 in notes and only ripped one of them so sellotaped it back together lol
I have started sealed pot again, put about £16 of change in it so starting again lolTOTAL 44 weeks lose. 6st 9.5lb :T0 -

I think that's Ok, I banked mine once it was full last year too. That's a whopping amount.:beer:
Maybe you'll do better this time.;)
