    36p for me today! Saw a dropped 5p outside Asda but didn't dare stop when my hands were full and there was snow underfoot!

    Hello everyone, just popping in to wish you all a belated Happy New Year and to say stay safe in this freezing weather. Things still difficult here with DM being so ill and therefore I am not posting as much as I should. Have popped more pennies in the pot, so hopefully not losing the plot. Sparky thank you to you and your DW for kinds thoughts and words which were much appreciated. Sorry to read you have had SF, my DH had this too in October....not nice. Hoping you are much better now.

    You're welcome elizabunny, DW and I are getting over it now, just going stir crazy sitting inside :mad: the poor dog keeps looking out the window :o
    Hope you are feeling better Sparky!!!!!

    Ive got more change to go in my pot when i get home this evening and as a double bonus i walked to work (3 miles) and will be walking home too so am saving lots of fuel lol

    Hope everyone is safe in the snow!

    Thanks PB,
    We're both on the mend now, that's an update from piggy central, oink oink :rotfl::rotfl:
    Sparky and DW - get better soon, SF really takes it out of you and you could feel lethargic for a few more days so take it easy


    Elizabunny - coping hugs for you

    Helen x

    Thanks HJ,
    We've been taking it easy since the darn thing took a hold of us ;)

    Hi all I've been a tad quiet recently, sorry! But I have been empying my purse into my pot as often as possible about 6 pound over the festive period which I think is good considering how manic it's been here. To top off the usual family meals Xmas partys and games nights my littlun was I'll over Xmas and ended up at hospital 8am boxing day morning only to get sent away again o and I keep fainting for no apparent reason which is scarey!
    Hope you all had a fab Xmas and new year. And I'll try to read back throgh and keep posting from now on.

    Glad to hear you going back to work is an indication of you getting better sparky - DW too I hope?

    I do hope it's possible for you DM to recover elizabunny. I've a feeling you've mention her before, but not sure?

    Cor Puzzled, 6 miles all in is a fair old trot every day!!:eek: Does it happen often or just as a one-off?

    Oh dear Jacquie! To keep fainting for no apparent reason must mean something's not quite right, how about going to see your Dr asasp!!!

    Sounds as though it's going to be VERY cold for a while with plenty of snow, so look out everyone!! Keep warm!
