    Hi again everyone and thank you all for your wishes. I'mgetting a bit better day by day, and youer wishes will now hasten that, I'm sure. :)
    sparky, that's a good point to make about anyone opening up to place the amount in their sigs. It certainly helps. BTW sparky, I never need to rope him in, he comes willingly, bless him. :)

    , all you wrote about you and your hubby was so very beautiful, it reminded me of my beloved and I wouldn't trade him for ANYTHING! :kisses3: I know we all have to work at marriage, but it doesn't arf help when we pick the right partner in the beginning! :)

    LC, I look forward to hearing what I hope is good news on Monday then. All the best!

    HowlinWolf, you take your time in making up your mind, play it by ear of it suits you that way. No one needs to put a target so wait and be happy with whatever you save, that's the most important thing.

    £5.59 in the pot after DH returned from shopping...he gave me the lot from his pocket! - NO sparky, I didn't threaten him first!! ;)

    Have a lovely day tomorrow folks, enjoy the fine weather whilst picking up cash....should you be so lucky!

    Just found this thread and would like to join if possible. I have been doing this since January saving 50 pences into a sealed pot. I save 2p, 1p and 5p in an old tea caddy which isn't sealed. I haven't got a target just be grateful for whatever I can manage.

    Hey sparky
    came through tunnel yesterday about 12 and saw a load of scooters going through and infront of the shell garage. Wonder which one you were? Hope you had a great time.
