    hellooooooooooooooo everyone :wave:

    Thank you for all my dads birthday wishes, he loves his birthday as he's a huge fan of presents . . . when they are for him :rotfl: he also likes to add that extra year to his speech of why he cant do something, so now its 'I can't do that, i'm 64 now you know!'

    Well I have 20p to add to my tin today which I charged my son for scraping his plate and putting it in the dishwasher for him, he couldnt be bothered last night . . . wonder if he will 'not be bothered' tonight as well or if he'd like to keep the rest of his pocket money :rotfl:

    Off out with Mr Jakes-dad and Lily now so hopefully some extra pennies to go in later, got to cram them in now with opening day sooooooooooooo close! can you all see it? its just round the corner! 24 days to go!!!!!!

    So lovely to see you again, peaceandfreedom! I love to hear just how excited folk are and for you to sound so very much so is music to my ears as it's why I simply LOVE keeping the SPC going each year. Keep it going PAF!!! ;)

    Thanks Sue-UU,

    It's so exciting because I now need two hands to lift the pot. The smallest coin in there is 5p as well and there are quite a few notes so I am hoping there will be a good haul in there. It's such an effective way of saving for Christmas. :j:xmassmile:snow_laug

    Debt-free and Proud!
    Morning everyone
    Popped quite a few coins into the pot yesterday after my DW decided we needed some more lights for the Christmas tree, there'll be that many on it this year I think the electricity meter will take off.

    It's bl**dy colder here than in Poland last week, the weather's up the wall I tells yer

    Have a great day everyone, stay safe & keep saving

  • Hello all! :wave:

    Hope everyone's well and good, and had a lovely weekend. I didn't do anything significant myself, just trying to catch up with those little jobs but the time still flew well away from me! :(

    Had nothing since the original count and what was found in the car, until yesterday however, as I had my 84 year old Grandma round for Sunday dinner and even though I turn 31 next month, she still gives me £5 whenever we meet, bless her heart :A so in the pot it goes!

    Happy potting! :j
