A very warm welcome, Loveactually. It's lovely to have you with us.
Enjoy yourself saving and join in the banter. You'll find your number at the bottom of the list on post 5 of page 1. Please read through post 1 as it'll let you know exactly what to do with the challenge.
Please also subscribe to the thread by clicking on "Thread Tools" (lower green bar) and clicking "Subscribe to this thread"...or you may lose us! To put your SPC No on, go to "Quick Links" (right side of top green bar), click and then click on "Edit Signature" and you're away.
*Please pop your numbers on your sigs, it really helps.
Very wise, dinglefoot, far better to play it safe and wait and see, but here's hoping.
That'll be fine, ALM, I look forward to seeing how excited you are this time next year. As another member said yesterday "It's better than Christmas"! Because it gives us security I'm sure. Budget well and you'll be able to save much more.
All the best for when you go then, LC 2. Nowhere like home eh.
Very good, Modesty, that 5p was well spotted too - angel's droppings perhaps.
Cor, nearly missed you, Lost. What a terrific amount to have potted, wonderful!Not long til you're counting it all again!
So, only FOUR days to save, potters, save all you can!Sue x

Woohoo I'm feeling everyone's excitement for the big count-up!!
55p in the pot for me including 1p car floor kill!
You won't believe this but..... Our Christmas tree is up #blush# ! I know,I know... Its waaaay too early, but kids were begging me! In the end i just thought oh well if it makes them happy... And it ain't costing money lol!
I will be sick of the sight of it by Christmas though lol!
Am hoping we won't be having a trip to the vet.... One of our cats has been fighting, came home with clumps of furr hanging off. Whilst stroking him last night i felt a slight lump, on investigation it had dried blood on it. Hoping its just gonna go down, but will be keeping a close eye on it over next couple of days.
Happy potting everyone(vegetarian & vegan family: me, DH, DS11 & DS 7, 3 dogs and 3 cats (not veggie )
