    Aw LC, he sounds lovely! My little GS is 4 and very boisterous but is so loving that it's hard to tell him off with a straight face. Needs must but definitely a time for cuddles afterwards :kisses3:

    Ooh Ooh! I did a doorstep survey today cos I felt sorry for the lady and she was doing a survey on radio use and she gave me £5! A real one! I thought there would be major hoops to jump through but no, a crisp £5 in my savings jar! Yay!!

    Way to go, mrslj :T I never thought a survey would give you real money.....You see, your good turn turned out well :)

    It's going to be an expensive week as dear FiL will be 90 on Wednesday and we are hosting a carvery meal for 13 people at the local pub :eek:( I did try to get one more person to come so that we don't have 13 at the table, as it seems so unlucky, but without much success) Anyway, I'm potting £1 from my personal allowance in case I have nothing left to pot later in the week :D

    Everyone have a lovely sunny Sunday and a big WELCOME to any Newbies x

    Have not added much to the pot for ages and can't remember when I last posted, must have been ages since I only just found this new thread :o.

    I have added money to the pot and so has the OH, although he puts in any spare change he has, so I have to count how much is in the pot so I know what the total is. Will try to get him to tell me how much he has put in, so I don't have to do this. Am glad though that he is now adding to this, although most of what I was adding before was his money that had fallen on the floor, sofa, etc. Total is now £48.80.

    Have a great Sunday everyone.

    Who got cuddled and kissed and spoilt after that remark!!

    XLC2

    Marvelous work, mrsljsouth!! :T I earned a £5er a few years ago, though that was through the post and went on forever!!!! :eek: Still, a £5er's always handy.

    nanto3girls, you'll be doing pretty well come the end of November with your £1 a day. ;)

    little_sweety, worry no more as...we'll ALL come!!!! :j I hope he has a wonderful day, you both too, I reckon you deserve it. :love:
