    Potted about £5 altogether today had a lovely day met GChildren from school so have had lots of hugs and kisses!! When I took them home the youngest one was eating those horrible sour dummy sweets and insisted on sharing one with me. Told him I didn't like the sugar so he licked it off and gave it back to me :rotfl::rotfl:lovely:rotfl:

    OMG ive had this, as well as maltesers with the chocolate nibbled off, custard creams with the middle licked out :eek::eek: . . . though im well known for biting a chocolate out of a box in half and then stuffing it in DH's mouth :rotfl: or even worse nibbling the edge, licking out the middle and handing him the outside :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

  • Still not been to the bank have less than 10p in my purse so not potted again today. Will get some cash tomorrow and pot. But not all bad NSD for me.:j:j

    Got to be up early tomorrow. DDS is representing South Cheshire in a cross-country competition for Y7. He hates cross-country normally and his club athletics coach nearly fell over as for 2 years has tried to get him to do it for the club!!:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Got to go to Ellesmere Port which is an hour away and giving about another half hour just in case I get lost!

    Think it will be a frosty one tonight so stay warm everyone.

  • Hi everyone

    This is my first challenge and I would really love to join :D. I will make a sealed pot tomorrow.
    Need to get ready for sisters wedding and a Caribbean holiday :j.

    So excited :)
  • Hi folks!

    Was going to get chips from the chippy tonight, but the queue was huge, so I came home and had a bowl of cereal instead (which is much better for the waistline!). So £1.50 into the pot...

    Might have them tomorrow instead, but as I'm off to my mum's maybe she'll pay, otherwise I might have to take the dosh out again! ;-)
