    Hey all - back from my hols with a shiney £2 coin and a bunch of other change that ive been squirrelling away while i was away and am looking forward to going home later so i can pop it all into my pot :D

    Also, have managed to have a good holiday without spending a fortune and have managed to put £90 into my seperate saver to go towards a lap top :D almost half way there now!

    Stunty - run fast then you might dodge the rain :D

    Sparky - does the back up lappy have a page down button? I use it all the time on MSE to go to the bottom of a page etc?

    I's listening LC 2 and thanks so much for caring! You're such a sweet soul. Hope it doesn't sound too much as though I'm begging for DH & I to be invited for jam pudding and custard tomorrow? :confused: Nah, course it doesn't!:rolleyes:

    Hi Sue

    Not so much as cupboard love as sponge pud love:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Do you remember chocolate crunch and pink custard oh I loved pink custard might have to pop over to the recipe thread again and find the recipe for it.

    Hi Everyone

    Put £3 in the pot today. Had a good day to-day spent it with all the family. I hope everyone else has,

    Hi all

    Thanks Sue for my number 709 my daughter decorated a pringle tube for my sealed pot challenge I explained that it was to save up for Christmas, Birhdays and Holidays. I noticed the other day she found a coin when we were tidying up and she put it straight in the tin. SWEET. I have been putting any loose change that I find around so there is probably about a pound in there at the moe. Happy saving to you all.

    Hi Greenbynature :wave:it's great to see you back, though sorry to hear about your bad couple of months, let's hope things soon pick up for you. Don't worry too much about having to break into your tin, it's such a blessing you had it to help you out.! You've still got a fair time to save so keep looking ahead and putting in when you can. I hope your little pal is recovered.

    Hi Sue thanks for that but unfortunately the total vet bill was over £1300 :eek: and no it didn't help had to have him pts, still not quite over the shock of it and still miss him very much and other dog is slowly getting used to him not being here, he was only 8 and very rarely ill which makes it worse somehow.
