I'm getting into this sealed pot thing now. I put 21p in this morning having found it whilst emptying my sons trousers before washing them, then I went through my purse and took out all the silver and coppers (but I left the pound coins for now) and got another £3.89, then tonight I was boasting to my husband and he found me another 75p in coppers on the shelf in the kitchen - Yippee - total for today now £4.85! The children didn't go to school today so I may well put their dinner money in the pot yet, but we'll see.0

Hi LC
How was Russia, we're planning a trip for my big 50 in 2012, around the end of the year, I want to see St Petersburg & Moscow, did you do a guided tour or did you do everything yourself? xxxSparky0107 - Sealed pot challenge member #002.
