    Hi please can I join??! I'm already part of the £2 coin challenge, but would like to do this one too. At Christmas I go out to a very posh restaurant with some people I once worked with as an end of year treat (though it usually ends up being October/November:D) costing about £80 (don't fall down with shock! - going out is cheaper and more sociable than buying pressies for them all in the long run) and my friends and I have set £5 limits for buying each other presents as we all don't need the hassle/can't afford it/know we're fab friends anyway. So basically I'm aiming for around £150. Have a pot which is sealed in that I've stuck on the plug:T. Been saving for 3 weeks, so far have £17.70. Wishing everyone high numbers for December!

    The caricatures sound great fishcakes, DH & I had one done of our kiddies and one of ourselves several years ago, at Butlins of all places, very good indeed to.

    All the best with moving scuba!

    It's still almost a month until I move Sue, 2 weeks at work, 10 days on holiday then I'll be packing my things in to my poor little car and heading south....not entirely sure where the final destination's likely to be just yet, hopefully I'll be organising my accommodation next weekend when I go down for an interview.

    Am hoping I'll either have a job lined up or will have internet access while I'm away to keep booking myself some mystery shops for immediately after I move and job hunt.

    Change from Saturday in the pot.

    I bought two beautiful roses and some rose food and secaturs and potting compound.

    I was very good and went straight home after and did not stop and have lunch on the way :)

    I know buying for the C word is best done early but I refuse to seriously consider it until after my birthday in September.

    I would prefer to think about it in December only :D
