    Hello Everyone!:hello:

    I am back! Thanks for the messages.

    I had a little baby girl on the 3rd of January (my actual due date) weighing 7lb 12 oz. She has a full bill of health, a head full of hair and is absolutely gorgeous! :smileyhea:j

    And of course I am now looking for a little pot/money bank for her to have too!

    So as I have been at home all week (escaped from hospital on Monday! phew! soooo noisy in there!) I haven't spent any money so nothing for the pot from me this week.:money: Maybe next week I'll have something to contribute.

    Happy New Year everyone! Hope that you challenges are going well and the snow isn't causing too many problems for you xxx
    Congratulations great news.

    I shouldn't think so fishcakes! ;)

    Hi larmy, sorry to hear of you week (read part, but just didn't have time to reply), sorry to hear your sad news. I wish you all best wishes to get through this time. Sue x PS. Well done on that great book profit!!! Never look a gift horse etc!

    Ahhh, that's the name sparks!! Thanks a lot for that, it was really getting to me last night as I used to love watching him.Ta!

    Jacki, why not try using smaller text for what you're putting in, other text on there too possibly. Give it a go and see, if not ask one of the 'guides'

    OK LC, I'll find out that name though - I'm sure it's Russia or could it have been Poland or ........?!

    Very manyCongratulationsonyourdarling littlegirl, Lookingtothefuture! :T :jI can so very easily imagine the pride you're both feeling right now. All best wishes for a safe, healthy life for her, her parents too of course! Please give her a kiss and cuddle for me :smileyhea

    £4.20 for me in the pot.

    Congrats Lookingtothefuture!

    5p for my pot today. It's slowly starting to mount up, although I strongly suspect that most of it is 5ps and under so probably won't amount to all that much!
