It's never too late, SueUU (aka the boss lady) will be around shortly to issue you with your number. Sparky (aka the spreadsheet guru) likes it if we pop that in to our sigs so he can 'quickly' tot up the annual total for all challengers.
In the mean time get saving willow!
Added a few more coppery ones to my work change tin, thats almost 3/4 full now so I might get to empty that before the main bottle in December. Have also been asked if I would be able to work some overtime in other areas of the company I work for while it's busy over the Festive season as I don't plan on going home for more than a few days (the pet boy has to work for some of it and I don't see the point in taking my holiday just yet) at least a few of those shifts are likely to be bar work and I'm told people tend to tip quite well at functions here. :beer:It’s not worth doing something unless someone, somewhere, would much rather you weren’t doing it.

I sincerely hope not Applecider, I've been doing it for years...for his own good you understand.I have to admit though, he's got a lot better this last year and hands it over without any resistance, bless him! :kisses3:Still, if I see any lying around.....you guessed it!
Great news about all you have on the cashback websites. Our sparky's the cashback king. :cool: BTW, It was a bit milder here yesterday, but look out today and tomorrow, we'll have icicles hanging everywhere!! Almost!
Hi scuba. BTW, I love "the boss lady" bit, sounds like me to a 'T' eh...or not! :happyloveGood for you with the extra shifts, I worked at a hotel (silver service waitress) years ago and folk were always flash with the cash when their spirits were highest. :beer:
Hi there toots,and good to see you! Thanks so much for letting me know about your pot. Don't worry about it, you go right ahead and get your mind free from worry by paying off the debt. Just do me one favout would you? Please pop the total £25.04 taken out on your siggy please, sparky does a spreadsheet for when everyone gives their totals to help me out, so it really will help. Thanks a lot and YES, there will be SPC No 4 next year!!! :j
OK folks, wrap up today and keep well....while you're saving.

I thought boss lady sounded better than herder of lost causes....
It's not a hotel, I work at a military base but its a shade on the posh side. The company I work for are responsible for all the catering, shops, bars, cleaning etc on camp. It means I can jump around working for other depts as long as it doesn't interfer with my normal shifts.It’s not worth doing something unless someone, somewhere, would much rather you weren’t doing it.
