    At a gal LC. :T They do indeed say feed a cold and starve a fever AND keep feeding your pot!!!!:rotfl::rotfl:I was so glad to read that your jaw is getting better, good luck with Jan!

    Thanks Helen. Re going to Scotland, I'd be inclined to try Jacki's idea and travel overnight as the kiddies can at least go to sleep then. We've done that ourselves a few times, though I must admit we didn't go while the littlies were young.....Oh, how I wish we had though. :(

    Hiya mummytummy! Yes, it'll soon be upon us....can't wait!! :j

    Money for the pot today, a whole £4.54 and so pleased with it.

    Have a wonderful Sunday all, you too Greenbynature and thanks for your wishes.

    Hi guys,

    Been there - done that (several times), I think there are more IOU's in my pot than anything else, but at least I'll know how much has 'passed through' throughout the year. :rotfl:

    i'm glad i'm not the only one who does that. my DH doesn't understand why there are so many pieces of paper in the pot!!
