So, there you are, little_sweetie, and there was I all sad as I thought you'd gone and left us.
You wouldn't believe the tears I've shed - no, neither would I. Seriously though, so sorry to hear about your sciatica and tingly leg, you poor thing, that must have been so very painful. Though do you mean the tingly leg was due to the sciatica or 'restless leg' which, to me, comes across as a sort of itchiness, well..in a weird way. All the best for the allotment as it would save you £s. How about a bring & buy sale, jumble sales etc, some could even include your cards sales!
Hi Sue :wave: now you know I wouldn't leave youYes, my tingly leg is related to my sciatica. Once the sciatica gets a grip, the pressure on the nerves makes my leg tingle in the most alarming way and sometimes my big toe goes numb
I have to rest until it eases....it becomes very painful to sit at the computer (sit anywhere, in fact,) but you know yourself how backs can just flare up for no apparent reason. Hope you feel much better now too.
Thanks for the great suggestions for fundraising. I'll relay all these ideas to the committee & I'll email you very soon with our exciting news :T

2 x £2 coins potted.
Nephew kindly hoovered and washed my car today......so I treated him to a fiver (which was well worth it as he did a lovely job). He was really pleased as he has been saving up for a £15 Itunes vouchers and the fiver meant he can now afford it! Discussed the possibility of saving some money and spending some money but i am afraid it has fallen on deaf earsSPC No:118:j (6) £468.74 (7)
