    I'm dying to know how much I have in my sealed tin!
    I can barely lift it it's so heavy!

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    Hey all, a few pennies for the pot after last nights drunken escapades mean its getting rather heavy now.

    Bring on the road change :)

    Fab news on the mortgage Kas - although not in the best of circumstances.:A
    I see we are due to be DF within a few weeks of each other. I really do hope we make it.:beer:
    Hi BigBum, 'tis a shame your pottie is empty, but looking on the bright side. you still have 6 months to get saving.
    I've done pretty well on ebay tonight. I do wish people would pay more quickly tho. :mad: lol

    I'm surprised at you Little Chicken.
    ;) Are you chickening out of our December 1st date? ;)

    :p
    I don't get to come on here too often.
    Too buzy money saving!
    :D
  • Hi everyone
    Found 1p, into the penny pot it went.
    One ebay item has been by mum's dog, before i could send it so i refunded the money to the buyer, mum is paying me the money for it so that will go into the pot when i gets it :D
    I owe my dad some money but will pay him when i see him next :)
    ..xx
    I am only me, no pretences, no second guesses.. It's the best I can do, I'm sorry if that's not good enough for you... I'm sorry I'm not good enough for you :A

    Hey, Little Chicken, i know, i'm pretty disappointed my pottie is empty. It was just one of those things :o. But your right, i'll try to save a little something each day for the next 6 months. Still, it was nice while it lasted :rolleyes: and i'm glad to have joined this thread or i wouldn't have started saving in the 1st place :).

    Well done on your ebay sales, hope you get your payments soon. I've only just started myself and have sold 1 item :j. Was pretty amazed anyone would want to buy my stuff! lol. What's the delay on receiving payments?
