I'm not complaining, the weathers been pretty good since April
, something had to give for a short while
.
Where do you live, nu1isit? It's not been so good here in the frozen north.To make things worse we've already had the longest day, so it's all downhill from now. Still, at least we have the Pot Opening Night Party to look forward to. Only five months now.:D:j:D

Frozen North :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:...Sorry Oops, I had a mental vision of people in cowskin, walking across barren wastelands

...It's been pretty mild until recently
..People were complaining about it being quite warm and their heating had been turned of early etc. :j until recently :eek:. Where you from Oops
? Tyneside, Wearside, Durham....
Sorry about your holiday rosyq, hopefully the next one will go according to plan :beer:.

Found 1p in the car park at work yesterday, plus £2 cos i'm still going to the gym :T
But I've had to cancel my walking holiday next week cos can't walk properly(long story) we're hoping they'll transfer the deposit to another booking for next year rather than lose it. I expect it would have rained all week like last year but I'm disappointed cos it also means I don't get a week with OH all to myself.
Oh well, onwards and upwards, I can still pot!

I'm sorry folks Moaning Minnie seems to have taken me over today. So I won't get this holiday? So what? There's people out there a lot worse off than me, at least I can afford to plan a holiday and my feet will recover. And there's people out there who don't know about this thread with all the lovely, upbeat, positive potters. So thanks for being in my life folks, you're great :j

Sorry about your holiday rosyq, hopefully you can transfer the deposit. You are not a moaning minnie, we are all entitled to feel a bit down, especially if you had been looking forward to the break and time with your OH.
Thank you for my second star Sue
£4.50 potted today, have a new tactic which will hopefully result in me spending less and potting more. :j
Looking forward to the Pot opening party in November, although also trying not to wish the year away too much.SPC 18 Target £200 /0 -

Potted my daily £2 and I found 25p tea room cahnge this morning

rosy, there's nothing wrong with getting it off your chest. It must be so disappointing and nobody on here minds you having a little moan. I do it all the time
So glad you had such a great birthday weekend sparky. Now you'll have lovely memories of your special birthday
Nothing to pot at the moment but I'm meeting my old school friend tonight for a pub meal and a gossip so I might have some change left tomorrow.
Have a good day all! xSealed Pot Challenge #012

I do too. More wombling to be done when I go get said items. Plus I got 2p floor kill yesterday too. I like it when strangers leave there receipts and money on floor as more for me! (I don't however like litter very much) My parents are most upset that they are not as good as me at finding floor money. Hopefully taking part in Big Clean soon and I will receive more goodies.Sealed pot challenge no5 member no1816!!0
