    £5.20 in 20p coins. Sorry not for the pot but for the showers on our hols at the caravan park. We go a week today and can't wait. Debt busting going great but the pot is very hungry! Aim to be debt free by Aug on DFBxmas12 challenge. Once that is done then start to fill the pot again.

    Have a great weekend everyone

    Morning all,

    I have somehow not checked this thread for 2 weeks and there are 10 pages to read! I've only managed 3 so far eek!
    I've been really busy at work and all spare time has been taken up by the gym and cycling as I'm determined to get into my short-shorts again soon!

    I have been potting little and often with help from my OH who is now quite well trained in handing over his change!

    Hope you're all enjoying some sun. It's glorious here but EXTREMELY windy :(

    Happy potting

  • Hi all,

    I wondered where you were janey ! Welcome home!

    Just popped in to report 5p found on the supermarket carpark and 7p left from food money. Both sums potted :) Not a lot left to pot but it will soon be the end of the month, thank goodness. Does anyone else feel that sometimes we are wishing our lives away by constantly counting down 'til month end though? :( On a sad note, one of our neighbours died suddenly yesterday aged mid 50's. My poor DH and another neighbour had to help the undertakers to bag and remove the body as it took 4 men to do it. It wasn't a great day at all so I'm trying to be positive today. Thanks for letting me share...:o

    Have a lovely sunny day everyone, barbecues & beach visits galore where you can :cool2: (I bet samtoby is on her boat) OH is working so I'm going to potter in the garden and I've splashed out on a single bottle of Real Ale to chill for when OH gets home tonight and a mini bottle of red wine for me....last of the big spenders me:rotfl::rotfl:

    Hi to you too, sue-uu, I hope it's not going to be too hot for you and lab. Stay in the shade but enjoy!

    Have a super day all x
