    Good Morning All.

    I haven't posted for ages but have been steadily potting away!! I opened my pot last night and counted up the contents.
    £239.81
    Very pleased with that but it is less than half my target - still without this challenge there would be nothing at all! Keep up the good work Sue and thank you. Can't wait to get started again tomorrow - snowed in at the moment so not much chance of any change but I am busy decluttering whilst I can't get to work so might find some bits and bobs!!

    Congratulations to everyone on their totals so far!
