    Sue - I am definitely cherishing the excitement, we made the announcement to a lot of our friends over the weekend so has made it a bit more real.

    Hope everyone is well and excited for pot opening day. :j

    Potted some change last night left over from the weekend. We spent Saturday in St Paul's Cathedral there was so much to look at we stayed all afternoon and had 2 tea breaks in the crypt :) It was a clearish day so the view from the top was a good'un. We seem to have spent all week celebrating DD 21st but back to normal now. Not long to go though to the 29th, I can't wait to open my pot and see how everyone's done :D
    Have a good week all :D

  • I'm excited about opening my pot :j- no idea how much is in there but its very full and heavy (probably with coppers unfortunately!)

    I'm hoping for enough to pay for my car tax as that is looming and I have no idea how else I'm going to afford it especially with insurance on the horizen as well!

    Can't believe how quickly this year has gone - doesn't seem that long ago I was adding the 1st coins to my pot and now it's nearly time to open it! :D
