A happy sunny afternoon potters!
I've had a very productive day. I had my first small injection of funds this morning so I managed to get half a tank of petrol (why is everyone panicking? No strike is guaranteed yet :cool:...) so I'm no longer driving on fumes, collected my FREE sausage roll from Mr M with newspaper coupon (OH very happy with that) and banked the £5 in 5p's that FiL gave me (added to sig) I found 5p shop kill but a dear senior gentleman was collecting for Leukemia Research so I gave it to him along with the 8p change I was going to pot :A I was gasping for a cuppa but I decided to go home and pot the £1 it would have cost me :money: I'm also on top of the mound of washing and ironing I have to do (not literally of course :rotfl::rotfl:) and the sun is still shining!
Have a SUPER afternoon and evening everyone. I do hope you are ok sue-uu ?? <<HUGS>>Sealed Pot Challenge #012

Went past the local garage on the bus today - massive queue - plus man holding up a placard. It read 'severe shortage of... Common sense' :rotfl:This is a system account and does not represent a real person. To contact the Forum Team email forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com0 -

£4.33 went in today. We're extremely skint at the moment and the temptation to open the damned tin is very, very high. Must... resist...I say we take off and nuke the entire site from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.0
