Lucky you Elsie - we had a glimpse of sun earlier but it is now lashing rain and I'm chilly. Am going to warm myself up by baking Twink's homemade hobnobs. I might sneak a few over to the naughty step for you Reb and Kas!Well?.....where are they....quick cos we may have to leave soon....twould be a shame to leave them for LC and LC2

I don't get to come on here too often.
Too buzy money saving!0 -
Woooooo HOOOOOOO
I found road change
A grand total of 5p this weekend - 2 x 2p and 1 x 1p - i havent found any for ages and ages so was very chuffed when the drout ended on Friday lol
Also 2 x shiney £2 coins into the pot today along with some other bits, all in all a very productive weekend
Hope everyone else is good0 -
Hi Reb. It seems we keep missing each other recently.:rolleyes: How's piggy-wiggy getting on? Is she filling up nicely?
Nope Mr LC does not realise he is being pickpocketed. He probably had one guinness too many last night so will not have a clue how much he has lost.:rotfl:If he is nice I might get him a trat come 1st Dec.
I spent today doing housework so feel quite content to chill infront of the tv now. We've no food in though. So it's crisp sandwiches for dinner:eek:
I'm researching holidays at the moment. Hopefully we're off for the first week of July.:T
Have a good evening. See you all soon.:D:D:D:D:DSave me from spending...

Hiya Pips Mum! Lovely to see you, great to hear about your pot getting weighty. I hope young Pip's being a good little lad for you both. He has to be 5 months old now, what happened to that time?!Its another sunny day here in Yorkshire, and you're right Sue-UU, we are definitely very good.! (smug look).:A The only thing is when its sunny I start looking around for more washing to do, its not worth putting the machine on for half a load - I know I'm sad, but I can't bear the thought of wasting free drying time.!:eek:
Hiya Our Elsie. There's nowt sad about washing everything in sight on such good days. It looks wonderful to see it billowing out in the sun and wind and what a lovely, fresh smell when it's dried out there. :j If you're sad then that makes 2 of us, but I'll bet we're not the only ones. A gorgeous day here again too!Little_Chicken wrote:Sue, my philosophy on selling is if it's just sitting around doing nothing in your house then you might as well try to make some pennies on ebay. I try to go round the house and list things in one go as it is very boring. Then if it doesn't sell it's off to oxfam.:A
Thanks a bunch for that LC! Much appreciated and certainly the best way to view it. We put so much out for the Heart Foundation whenever they're in the area, but there's a lot of things I'm hoping we could get money for, but if they're not sold then they can have that too.
OK reb, you can come off the naughty step now, Kas too, BUT one naughty word or deed and back you go - WITHOUT any chocs or biccies!!! We don't reward naughty behaviour - so YOU Nualacan forget those thoughts of sneaking munchies on for anyone there!
Lucky devil you Puzzled! I swear if I get any closer to the ground whilst looking for dropped cash, I'll get done for a perverse act!!!:o
All the best for a good week ahead folks. Make the best of it ...why not!

Hello, had to pay some bills, so only 20p's for each pot today, but I get to update my sig at last

Afternoon all, another one doing the washing while its a lovely sunny day, just about to put my last load in and go for a run with the spotty dog, although I'm thinking I might take my camera instead and have an hour or so playing with it around the reserviors in the sun. Sorted the change out of my purse again at last so a few small jingles in to the bottle, but been having a slow few weeks due to trying not to spend too much! Should really be phoning up about a new bar job too as theres one advertised in the town near me with hours which would be perfect -and might just earn me some extra change for the pot.It’s not worth doing something unless someone, somewhere, would much rather you weren’t doing it.

:hello: Hi Everyone
Its been a lovely day played in garden with the LO's all afternoon.
Put some nice change in my jar. Have sold a couple of bits on ebay so will put that in when I take it out of paypal. Thought I might leave it in till I've got a nice amount any veiws on this?
Well Reb and Kas you have been allowed off the step at last. I don't think I had better go on it, if not I will have to start a diet again!!!
Elsie I agree do the washing when the sun is out it makes you feel good.

Charlie I tend to leave money in paypal until it reaches the 'magic' £50 for the free withdrawal then put it straight in to my savings account, I figure the money I spent on postage etc I probably would have spent on something else anyway so I've 'saved' myself from a small amount of needless spending - and it does feel good to see my savings account benefit from a fairly rare boost.It’s not worth doing something unless someone, somewhere, would much rather you weren’t doing it.
