    Sorry to see that you've not had a very good day EverTheOptimist, I hope that tomorrow and all the days forward are brighter for you. Here, have a huggle. LO6hug03HL.gif

    Thank you JJ. Better today but its an ongoing thing so just got to focus on the good. And stay positive.

    On to the potting - i have finally decided after two weeks that i am going to pot £30 of my birthday money. I don't want it to get wasted on bits and bobs, so now i can look forward to it in Dec.

    I also have 50p left from last night's chinese.

    So it is all being potted, finally after a week of no pottage. :j

    Hugs for anyone that needs them, get well wishes for anyone that needs them.

    Have a good weekend all, and keeeeeeeeep potting......

    Two lovely £2 coins potted today and some shrapnel. I'm having to be a bit careful about what I pot though, 'cos I keep having no change for parking, or the loos at Paddington Station, so then I have to buy something to get change... Just need to be more organised ha ha chance would be a fine thing.

    Posted parcel to Zapp today so when I get the money for that it can go in the pot too :j

    Have a good weekend everyone.

    ps by the way I'm trying the green tea that someone here recommended (sorry can't remember who) - it's making my tongue curl up at the moment :rotfl: but I'll persevere!

    Nope...can't see them Ruth. I just have a box and a little red cross

    I'll try again when I'm on the computer. Today wasn't a NSD after all. Treated the OH to a breakfast wrap mmmmmm :)

    EverTheOptimist gave me the idea that maybe I should pot the £50 my mum gave me as there's nothing I really want to spend it on and it's my birthday next month. I'll have to think lol. Maybe I'll just pot some of it.

    Finally been out shopping today and spent a grand total of . . . . . £3 :rotfl: managed to buy birthday presents for Lilys friends parties and a roll of foil for that :D and to top it off I got a lovely £2 coin in my change :D:D

    Ok I have a question Mrs Sue-UU, I changed my gas and electric a few months ago and got £50 in love2shop vouchers in the post today (even though I swapped back a month later :D) now can I pot some of these, is that allowed? or do we think this is cheating a little bit?? :think:

    Oooh.... don't you just love Mackie's icecream! It's the best ever!!:T
    On the potting front, I have managed to acquire two £2 coins recently. They're getting a bit rarer now. They must all be in people's pots.:D
