    thats a brilliant goal :beer: i would love to do something like that but not sure if i could do it that fast :D


    Thanks, hopefully by then the exchange rate will be ok again.

    I've got my membership number now, conveniently its 685 so I think that's the amount I'll aim to save by then.
    NEXT GOAL: Halve mortgage by 2025



    Total Debt @ LBM 40k. All paid off!!

            That'll be a resounding NO to a sub total on the 2nd June, thank you very much, I can see the influence, of a certain pair on you, and if you carry on I'm sure Sue will send all three of you to the naughty seat :eek:, with no cookies, chocolates or hob nobs, to tide you over, now be good and put your pot back in the corner and walk away from it:rotfl::rotfl:

            lucy*locket, bet that 6p is no longer on your friend's desk, right??? Shame on you if you took it - or - by golly you're slow if you didn't!!


            Welcome back Sue...the 6p is still on the desk, my honest nature got the better of me:D..I managed to add a couple of quid to my pot last week so I think I'll live without the 6p. Have a good week.

            Hello, hope everyone's had a good weekend and enjoyed the bank holiday. We went to see my mum and dad and sister yesterday and had a really nice time. DH fell asleep in the car on the way home which was really sweet! I thought only toddlers did that!

            Went to the post office today. Broke into a £5er so can put about £4 of change in the pots. Also had some change in my purse that I'd forgotten about so that can go in there too.


            Sorry, I cant keep up with this thread, so hugs/commiserations/congratulations as required

            Hi everyone! Good to see our latest family members happy with your numbers and fitting in so well.
            :hello: Hi Sue Glad you are back you've been missed.

            with you he said we MIGHT get a gold star. I do hope so already looking on Ebay for a hat!!!

            And June the 2nd is our halfway day .Do you want us to have a sub -total of our money?????;)

            X LC 2

            Lovely [STRIKE]creeping[/STRIKE] kind words LC 2...but - NO - we don't want a sub total on the 2nd June! You're heading for a place on that naughty stool, you know that don't you! Except for dire circumstances we leave the pots sealed til December - ok! As for the stars I'll be having words with sparky - especially about you!

            kilgore, are you serious about your target being £685?? You sounded it so I've put it down by your number on P 1, just let me know if you want it changed, no problem at all.


            Thank Heavens for that Jordan, I could hardly sleep last night for thoughts of the poor little mite winging it all around the universe! :huh:

            Thanks for the back-up sparky! ;) She's heading for trouble that one!

            Excellently handled lucy*locket, you did really well.:T

            Lovely to see you rosepink! No, it isn't just kiddies that go to sleep on trips, I've sometimes done that since early 20's and our DIL does it every time!:rolleyes:

            Am being bugged at present here by a blessed Chinook helicopter, presumably on manoeuvres, ......for the last 2 HOURS and he's still going strong!!!! :mad: Ah well, £2. 21 in the pot for me today.

            Have a great day all and seal those bloomin pots TIGHT!!! :angry:

            Sue. New friends wishing to join us, please just ask and I'll be with you ASAP.
