Shocking behaviour. :eek::eek: Why would someone do that????

I probably spend more than some people would on some things, (Haircut - cant say how much) But to throw money away, literally....

Well after posting yesterday to say i wouldnt have anything to pot for the rest of the week, i have £2.50 to pot, change from my hair cut. Yay. :j

Keeeeeeeeeeep potting everyone.

That's why I save the pennies EverTheOptimist, so I can spend money on the things that matter to me - like haircuts!

I don't expect to pot anything today as I probably won't be going out, except maybe I'll try to walk the dog, and you don't get much roadkill in the country!

[/CENTER]How come? Is it because they are made of clay?

Yes! If you get notes stuck in there and aren't able to tease them out with tweezers then the only way out is by smashing it/them!!! Pop them in a tin.

Very sad to hear about your iphone screen, is it covered by your house insurance? If no then have a look on the Techie board to see IF they have any great ideas. All the best.

You thinking about August & Christmas ALREADY Kerfuffle???? :eek: Is it the weather TOTM....or madness?!!!!!! :eek: Hope you're both doing well. Bally cold here!!!!!! Lovely bit of snow on the Blackdown hills on Somerset/Devon border yesterday....gorgeous. :grinheart

Well done tizzie and goodfor you on that good, healthy positive outlook

On a sad note.....

I dropped my iphone and smashed the screen..... :eek:

Oh no, samtoby, poor you These things cost a fortune too. I don't suppose it's insured is it? Up until recently my little Grandson was always dropping phones down the loo:eek: His mum was NOT happy and always broke! Here have a <<hug>> x

I do not have insurance unfortunatly.

My contract is nearly up so while bargining with T -Mobile on my new contract I may get insurance.

Hello Potters ....

A lovely 5p from us today...it all adds up ... I'm resisting temptation to have a sneaky peek in the pot :A..It feels heavier, a lot heavier , I'm hoping when I open it at the end, it's somehow multiplied itself into a tidal wave of coins. £1 or 50p coins would be best :rotfl: :rotfl:.

Happy Potting everyone

You guys arent going to believe this!

Therea a girl I work with opposite me. I was telling her about the pot for some reason I can't remember.

Basically she THROWS AWAY her change, like 1p 2p and 5ps. Like literally chucks it. In the bin.

I said if you don't want them I'll have them, seriously.

I now have a permanent source of roadkill

Unbelievable...

Eep! This happened to a friend who dropped his on the patio. I think he got the screen replaced (not cheap, but cheaper than a new phone) by Apple (you can get the screen to do it yourself more cheaply but it would invalidate the warranty I think).

Hi I thought I would tell you my problems hope you dont mind!! Am in my late thirties with 2 kids. Ones 8, ones 18, I feel terrible that im house bound/bed bound all the time! I probably manage to get out the house twice a month:eek: I feel very upset trying to write this but here goes(deep Breath)

I've been on 1/2 prozac since my dad died in 1996. Then it all started to role down hill from there. Slowly over the years up till now I've gained 7 stone in weight, (thats very slowly since 1996).

I also had another baby in 2003 which brought my weight up to 15.7lb's.
when I reached 12.7lb's back in 2000 my old OH started to get me to sleep on the seatte. As he couldnt stand my snoring and thats when I started to feel fatigued all the time.

I'll now zip you forward to last year when I went on holiday with my best friend and we shared a room. Her sister had SLEEP APNEA as a child and she said I had the same syptoms like the heavy snoring, then I stop BREATHING.
After a few months I finally got an appointment with the sleep clinic in the hospital. After loads of checks and tests they said on average I'd had ONE HOUR SLEEP since 2000 and it was now 2011!
I now sleep with a machine and full face mask which blows constant air into my mouth.
This is to keep the airway's open in your neck while your asleep.

Sleep wise I feel much better and I put all this on here so you other ladies/gents get checked out. YOU WILL NOT KNOW YOU ARE CONSTANTLY WAKING UP!! at night as your mind will still be asleep.

Next big thing that is really crippling me is I had an full hysterctomy last August and IVE NEVER RECOVERED FROM IT. I feel like I have permanent flu.

I can bearly walk with out being in pain the doctors dont sort me out the just keep doing more blood test and urine tests and send me home with antibiotics since about christmas time.

A nurse I saw one day said she thinks I have a prolapsed bladder but Ive been waiting months and months for a hospital appointment am at my WITS END!!
None of the doctors I have seen have told me they think I have a prolasped bladder, WHAT DO i DO??

AM SEEING THE DOCTOR TOMORROW HAS ANYONE GOT ANY HINTS OR TIPS?

Other stuff thats wrong with me is I have a under-active tyroid am on 75grams a day of Tyroxine which doesnt seem to anything apart from getting rid of the burning sensation in my feet and legs.
Asthma, Eczema, Anxity,
Insomnia,serve deppression,
anemia,Arthritis,I.B.S,
fatigue,scoliosis,
fibromyalgia,water retention,
constipation,migraines,chronic pain in my back,
Brain fog and I feel sick when I wake up for about three hours.

Thats not all my syptoms but there the main things which are wrong with me.
I had a full hysterctomy because I had really chronic Endometriosis.

After the op the surgeon told me he had to take one of my overies away as it had a non cancerous syst.
So my hormones are now all over the place! (my hormone level goes up and down like a yoyo which plays merry hell with my moods):(

The operation didnt go acording to plan. I have never felt better since I had it done, am constantly needing the loo.
Apart from flushing my usless self down the toliet has anyone got any suggestions??? am pretty desprate:mad:. Best wishes:A
