    Am I allowed to declare a total yet Sue? I wont be spending anything cash wise before the 1st so I won't be adding to the pot.

    Morning R_E
    I think I'm having a senior moment but I can't read the yellow writing next to SPC in your signature. What does it say? :D

    Good morning everyone
    Ooh! You can feel the excitement growing can't you, all itching to get their totals into a post and be the first to declare. Please everyone hold out until Thursday, it'll be worth the wait.

    Have a great day everyone, stay safe & keep saving

    Hi Sparks,

    ruby-eskimo's number says #612,

    You're up early for a Sunday morning, are you working?

    ETA: I'm just off to bed myself, so you'll all be safe for a good 8 hours now. Night.
  • Its nearly killing me waiting till Thursday to open this tin!!!! I very nearly opened it this morning but fortunately the kettle boiled n i was absolutely gagging for a cuppa tea so the tin is safe for now.

    Hope its worth the wait. Hoping for £100 to £500 but thing the top total is being abit unrealistic! Postive hoping

    Yep sparky, you're right, you are having a senior moment as when you get close it does say 612, but do you need specs maybe? I wear them and you're possibly getting close to 'that age' when folk can't read what's close - unless someone else holds it out the window. :( Have I just made your day?

    Seriously, it is difficult to read, so if it's possible to tone it down a bit, Ruby we'd both be grateful.

    Good night, Kerfuffle...sleep well.

    Yippeeee for the kettle, fingersxed!!! Now behave yourself, drink the tea and leave the pot where it is! :mad: Kids these days! :( Re whatever you have in your pot, think low and be happy. YOU...no one else...has saved it strictly through the year. :D Be proud of yourself no matter what it is.

    To nanto3girls and ALL new members, you're signed up, you have your numbers and can start saving NOW! Please don't wait as it's not cheating.

    Morning Kerry, good to see someone not going on about opening her pot, some of this lot would have Christmas Day brought forward too if they had the power! :( I haven't counted mine either.

    Hi there Purpleroses, good to see you still topping up yours, well done!

    I must admit to being exceptionally excited and..almost can't wait, but definitely CAN and WILL. :j

    Have a wonderful Sunday everyone and, if possible, keep on saving.
