    Thanks a lot skilly. I really do appreciate you going to all that trouble - but - as I don't have or want my photos on photobucket I was trying to find a way of uploading straight from my PC. Cut out the middle man so to speak. I'll try again, but if not I may set up my own site (free of course! :money:). Many thanks though and it'll help us for the future.

    Well done mummytummy, that is GOOD!!! :j

    Then again 5p is good too Lost!!! :D It all mounts up.

    Hiya LC 2! :hello: So pleased you had a lovely holiday, a rotten shame about the lappy though. Life! You have a lovely weekend too LC.

    Hi sparky, sorry to hear about the cold...maybe it was the shock of the motor costs that brought it on!!! :D Hope you're soon much better.

    Keep plugging away at it PennyCounter - you WILL get there! :) Let us know if you bank any, you too please sh1305.

    For me it's £2.02 in the pot.

    Well done everyone, keep saving hard as we count down the days! :j Have a lovely weekend everyone and stay safe and healthy! :)
