    Well, OH finally donated his pot to me last night and apparently there's £16.90 in there :D I'll be adding that to my pot tonight then bagging up as much as i can to take to the bank when i get my SPC savings account. (it has been pushed back a week so wont be until the 16th now :( ) i need to think of something i can use the other pot for. I'm considering donating it to a family member to try and encourage them to save!

    My pots are getting so heavy i fear they may fall through the floor soon! ha ha.

    OH wanted to buy me something to thank me for sorting out all his money and stuff but i told him there is nothing i want so he has put £200 into my savings account :D very happy lady i am :) even though the £200 isn't going into my pot.


    Happy Potting everyone :)

    Now you come to mention it Sparky. Sue hasn't been on for a while. Did she have flu? Or was that someone else? :(Can't remember now, sorry.
    On a potting note, £2.50 gone into pot today.

    Hi all

    I'm still here, still potting although not as often as I'd like.

    Happy birthday sue!

    Oh also, I have had my baby boy, baby William was born on 15th feb by emergency c section (hence why not much potting as can't get out to get any change) :o

    Hope everyone is well. I got a little bit of catching up to do now!! X
