    Welcome back LMM,
    I'm so jealous, I cant wait to get back to New York, DW and I absolutely loved it last November (even looked at moving there!), if you've got any spare dollars, send them this way :rotfl:

    Hi everyone,

    Nothing for my piggy today but the plus side is I'm not spending any cash!

    Hope you all have a good day! :wave:
    Trying to spend less time on MSE so I can get more done ... it's not going great so far! :)
    Sorry if I don't reply to posts - I'm having MAJOR trouble keeping up these days!

    Just cashed $85 in for £52.40 sorry Sparky.

    It was amazing though, I would like to go back one day as didn't manage all the things I wanted to do.

    Another £4 of £2 coins in the pot already as been shopping for supplies as emptied cupboards before I went.

    We're planning on September/October next year to spend a week there, think I'll use this years sealed pot contents to help pay for it :D. We only saw about 60% of the things we wanted to see

    Ooh I can't follow that one sparky:rotfl:

    I'm still here too and still potting the pennies, but DH took me away for a nice weekend because it was my birthday and also treated me to a lovely dinner out. So, not so many spare pennies for the piggy, but he hasn't been neglected because I've managed a few bits and pieces of loose change.
