Evening all.
I've managed to have a very frugal week, but potted less than planned!!
I did pot £2.50 tonight which included a £2 coin, again from the s/scan till.
I also can't update my sig, but will do when fixed!!
£533+ potted so far and if I can average £1 per day until "opening pot day", I'll hit that £600+ Sue.
Keep calm and carry on potting, potting, potting.

Nothing potted again today
I was going to go to an open day of a local historical building and a vintage fair. My OH took me in the car to Asda to get some petrol (about a 15 minute drive), but I felt too ill to go to the vintage fair and we came homeI was looking forward to it for ages as well, I was going to dress up and put my hair in victory rolls and everything
This morning just taking a shower and getting ready and going up and down the stairs a couple of times made me feel exhausted. Stupid flu/cold thing...and I've got to go to work tomorrow
Hopefully I'll actually manage to get a decent night's sleep tonight.SPC '21 #0750 -
I love that Keep Calm and Carry on Potting quote!!!! Well done!! Where do I get the mug/ tee shirt!!!!!
Another £1 in today, and some shrapnell in my other box. Also my holiday box must be up to about £30 (have to start somewhere) but hopefully by early next year I will have the making of flight money to somewhere warm and sunny
Decided too absolutely no more pret lunches at work, very tasty but cost a fortune at least £5 for a sarnie and crisps or fruit/cake. I do try to take my own lunch to work but sometimes weaken. Shopping tomorrow so will make sure that have some basic tinned soups and sandwich fillings to last the week.

Excellent work with that forward planning, Rosy, terribly MSE! Has she not got a shed for you?
I expect she could squeeze me into the garage but I thought 'hey, it's Christmas, I'll have a bit of luxury' :rotfl:
Lovely day out with OH to see the Mary Rose in Portsmouth, it's a really good exhibition they've got so much on display it's really well done
And potted 4x£2 coins when I got home

Good afternoon everyone
Wet & windy in Liverpool today. Spending a relaxing afternoon with my DW. Enjoying the music on Smooth FM but Emma B's voice does get on my nerves when she prattles on about nonsense! Daily £3 potted along with some extra change.
Sue I know you've had a sneak peak at the paint job, but you should see the amazing finished job. It's going to be a real head turner & hopefully show winner when we go to all the scooter clubs annual days.
Jakes-Mum Will you stop picking on that poor man! Have you tried giving him a list with pictures attached? At least he'll have a fighting chance of getting the right thing (just a thought!)Sparky0107 - Sealed pot challenge member #002.

Potted an unexpected £2 coin
Weather is dire here in West Suffolk, so I am wrapped up on the sofa alternating between watching "you've got mail" - love that film....the internet.....and there's a book to hand if I need a third option. CosySPC No:118:j (6) £468.74 (7)
