that's a bit of a trek for her to get to work isn't it?? saying that when we lived in manchester DH worked in Liverpool.

Decided to have a pot for collecting silver and notes and a pot for 1 and 2 pence pieces. When the small change pot is full will cash it in and put the money in the other pot. Well thats the plan anyway!;)Sealed Pot Challenge 831- £19.90/£200

A very warm welcome to the thread rustysmart and salnew, lovely to meet you.
I've just had a scout through the list on Page 1, but don't see you, so have now added you to it. 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. If you haven't already done so then read through posts 1 & 2 as it'll help you with any queries. Please put your number on your sig, it helps so very much.
rustysmart - if you're saving money in a Terramumdi pot it doesn't mean that you have to smash it to get it out. Use a knife with the pot at an angle and you still have your lovely pot to start again with next year.JaneLiz wrote:Well I shove about £10 in there last week... so I'm not doing TOO badly.. but just a few coins in since then.
Ah, now that's not bad at all JaneLiz, I thought you meant you just weren't managing anything. Well done!!:T

Hi Everyone!
First off, really sorry for the late MERRY XMAS, but I'll get in early with a HAPPY NEW YEAR!! December has ended with mixed blessings for us with my DM being taken seriously ill and things are very much on a knife edge at the moment. However, she was discharged back to her Nursing Home for Christmas and we were able to spend all of Christmas morning with her -visiting in hospital was alot more restricted. Obviously had to cancel a small Pre Xmas break DH and I had planned -but not worried about that at all.
I have still been stoically adding pennies to my pottery piggy in attempt not to lose the plot and hope to come back in the new year on a more positive note. So to all of you, I wish you a Peaceful and Happy New Year and very heavy sealed pots:D and to everyone who has been feeling poorly, get better soon xSealed Pot Challenge 7 Member 022 :staradmin:staradmin:staradmin

Ah thanks elizabunny! I couldn't think what it was that just wouldn't let me enjoy Christmas as I should be doing, now I see what it is - I hadn't had your greetings!!!
So sorry to hear about your poor Mum, I really do hope she'll be able to recover. It's a hard time I know so I really can sympathise with you. A very Happy New Year to you all too!
£1.75's good raven!
