    No it most certainly does not! It means they don't know a good thing/person when it hits them in the face (not that i'm suggesting you hit them)

    I have been bad.... I spent £35 ish on 57 tea bags and a cup...... I really needed cheering up though, i've had nothing but bad news and the last two weeks i have worked extra hours and saved an extra 200 for my savings account......

    However, it is payday today and i do have £17.43 left (no idea how) so after i have bought lunch (yes, i've been buying my lunch too, i'm really not having a good week) i'll pop the rest into my pot.

    Other than that ive not really been potting much :(

    Please forgive me

    Here Ruth, have some of these :grouphug: :D :grouphug:...Fingers crossed better things are on their way ;).

    Sorry you didn't get samtoby...you can have one of these too :grouphug:, and one of these :D...Maybe that paper will have something of 'higher calibre' for you ;).

    Another couple of pennies for us :p. A lottery win would be fantastic - just enough for a house...and a few 'little things' :rotfl:.

    Happy Potting everyone :beer:

    Don't worry Ruth. I've had a really naff month spending and savings wise. I spent loads on camping equipment and had to buy a couple of things for the wedding we're going to on Saturday. I'm still going to be paying for it next month :(

    Sorry to hear about the interview Samtoby. I get so stressed about things like that.

    I have just potted a whopping £1.02! Found a whole pound in the tumble dryer and wrestled the 2p off my OH :D

    It's Friday tomorrow :j

    Morning everyone
    My daily £2 potted testerday. Samtoby ((HUGS)) hun, it was obviously never meant to be, so something better must be around the corner for you. :D

    LC2 hope you enjoyed lunch with your friend, I hear M0rrisons do a cracking lunch deal :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Good morning everyone,

    Thank you for all you kind wishes. Nothing in the job paper this week. :(

    But I am going to look at some sites at the weekend; if I am not sailing. :)
