    Lost2 - hope you are well and truly on the mend......on the bright side.....wow a lovely amount saved and potted. Well done.

    I have been potting odds and ends over the last few days, which amount to about £2 ish.

    Had some not such great news at hospital on Monday. I need further surgery, but they will now wait until I have completed my chemotherapy until they do it. I am off for a full body scan next week to see if the cancer has spread elsewhere....and in any event should be starting chemo within next 2 weeks. But still being positive. I am making the most of feeling well at the moment and heading off to stay with my best friend of 23 years, this weekend. Lots of giggles are expected.

    £3 for me from the weekend. Had a lovely day sightseeing in London on Saturday for my birthday, very tiring and very expensive but I loved it.
    Get well soon lost2 and nell fingers crossed it hasn't spread anywhere else. Laughter is the best medicine, so enjoy your girly weekend xx

    Get well soon Lost2 and hope it isn't too painful!

    Oh dear Nell, I hope it hasn't spread elsewhere! I remember when my mum got a full body check for melanoma and needed 4 separate incisions, luckily they were all precancerous. I hope you have a fantastic time with your best friend!

    I confess you guys. I jimmied $2 out of the tin to pay for a bus ticket, then donated the change to charity. I replaced it though when I put $7.60 in there today though! My daughter also found 10 cents roadkill and asked to put it in there. They are impressed with how heavy the big one is.

    Hi all, and wishes to nell36. You have the strength and character, good luck with the challenge ahead. As already said, you have the spirit.

    Exactly, how times have changed .............................. and I'm not sure if it's for the better. lol

    Another 2 x £2 coins potted - the last 4 have all been from the s/scan tills. So another £4 saved.

    £366+ potted so far.
