    Morning all
    Great Birthday had yesterday, I got spoilt! Thanks again for all the well wishes, very much appreciated. Crimson.Addict, Sue & ModestyB hopefully we won't have to put up with Krankenstein fron next door very much longer! They've told too many lies to the police & the ASBO people, so hopefully pressure will be put on the landlord to get them out (Fingers crossed!) XX

    Just dropping in to say "Hi" and hoping all's well with everyone.

    So pleased to hear you had a good day, sparky.Re the neighbours from he*l.....one of these days, sparks! ;) Sounds like we're all willing them away for you so - fingers crossed for wishes to become reality.

    I'm delighted you had a GREAT weekend, Nell, stay in that really positive way of thinking that you have - no point in doing anything different now is there! :grinheart

    Lovely to see you back again, Ruth, thank goodness you're ok. All best wishes for better potting for you asap.

    £3 in the pot from DH, bless him. :kisses3:

    I've been Money Tipped!
    Morning all, hope all are well.

    Potted £2.60 this morning and "free" money has been received, so £20 will be going in pot either today or tomorrow. Another £3 will get me to £400 minimum and I feel that's a big landmark and fully in control. I'll easily get to £500 for the year and will happily take on Sue's challenge of £600. lol

    £377+ potted so far..........................and adding.
