    Have had my pot going since the beginning of April, and am delighted to realise that it now contains over £200!

    Am almost certainly going to put it towards a holiday rather than Christmas. Can't wait!
    Keeping two cats and myself on a small budget, and enjoying life while we're at it!

    A very warm welcome TinyTink, to MSE also. biggrin.gif Enjoy yourself with us and have great fun saving. You'll find your number at the bottom of the list on post 2 of page 1. Please read through posts 1 & 2 as it'll let you know exactly what to do with the challenge. Please kindly put your number on your sig, it helps so very much

    Tink, I'm soooo very impressed that the Sealed Pot was your first port of call on joining up, very sensible indeed!! :j

    Hiya Scuba, I do hope it's possible to be interviewed with the 2nd as well, though I can appreciate your dilemma. Ca sera sera for sure! :)

    Evening sparky, great news about your special day/night, it sounded just perfect. Then to add to that it's TWO weeks in the sunshine?? Are you rubbing it in per chance?! :cool: Thought so! ;)Thanks for your words about poor Murphy, he was an absolute beauty. You're right though, unless someone's had one they really don't know what it's like, yet our hairy friends listen to us, react and...always know our emotions and are such a comfort. :)

    Well done Dee...and it was the same for me £2 in the pot.

    Winchelsea, if anyone deserves a holiday with their savings than it's YOU! They say some of the best parts of holidays is all the planning....enjoy it ALL!!! :j

    Have a good day everyone, not too much rain I hope.

    Sue x New friends wishing to join us, please just ask below and I'll be with you ASAP.

    Would I rub it in about getting away from the English summer, and sitting in the sun for 2 weeks? As if I would!

    Thank Heavens for that sparky. I tried hard to look for Dee's name last night, but as I couldn't see it, but she 'sounded' as though she was a member I thought I was going bonkers! :eek: Absolutely NO comments from anyone to that last bit!! :p

    Any road, I'm off to enlist Dee...who's already reeked havoc! :( Bless her..ahem. :cool:

    Sue x
