Glad you liked my post bout sleepers hill. my 2 great aunts lived in Bodley st for 80 odd years .sadly we had to move them 2yrs ago because of very old age. Unfortunatly 1 aunt who was 94 passed a way Tues night very peacefully she leaves her sister who is 90 behind. so folks from that area live rather long lives it must be sumthin in the water. take care .:)

I saved money on a taxi home earlier and by not succumbing to the vending machines and butty wagon so I am going to add a few £ coins to the tin when I can be bothered later.
I urgently need a new phone so I am going to be putting this pot towards it once full or at least "borrowing" the amount once counted, eg if I know I have accrued £xx.xx I can make a note of that and "owe" it to the total at the end of the year and use the entire sum for something IYSWIM.

Hi folks,
Having BIGGGG problems with my PC at present. Spent a fortune on it yesterday and sweet fanny adams is happening at present!! Am using hubbies at the moment, unsure what will be happening to mine. I'm hoping not to have to buy a new one, especially after spending so much today, but we'll just have to wait and see. Who knows....over night a magical fairy or :A angel might work it's magic!Then again....this is the realworld!!
No matter what happens here folks you get right on saving and it'll be a real tonic for me to see your pots mounting up! :j
All being well, I'll be back on here tomorrow. Take care all, keep safeand healthy! For now it's over to sparky, my right-hand man, and I'll welcome aboard any new members or update targets asap. Keep all the ladies happy sparky, though be wary of just how happy you make the guys!Look out stunty and Paul!!! :eek:
