    Phew! Just managed to catch up on the last 20 pages.
    Sue, I think you're right about saving for a new laptop, can only use this one in safe mode atm.
    I hope your leg is better soon, sounds really painful. (((Hugs)))

    Potted a few handfuls of change over the last week, £1.43 going in tonight.

    Welcome to all our new and returning potters. Good luck to everyone for SPC 7.

  • Hi everyone,

    Thank you for the kind message sue I love paying for beautiful things for my little one. Ex-OH is well and truly out of the window (I'd love to have thrown him!! :rotfl: ) so he now has no interference with my savings pots :D
    Another 2p in the kitty for me. So far, so good.

    Best wishes and hugs to all that need them

    Xx

    I've been Money Tipped!
    Morning all.

    More and more new potters - welcome and good luck.

    Some good potting going on and plenty of road-kill.
    I potted a single £2 coin (on a roll with them and my favourite). Off to Lidl soon for their half-price weekend stuff and see how many more coins I get.

    Have a great weekend everyone and enjoy the festive period (if you can) - it can be a stressful time.
    I've never known the large supermarkets to be so quiet though - could be different this weekend though!!

  • Yay been offered another days work but its only a small amount today and I won't get the money until the 15th January but it's some that I knows coming, I'm off out tonight for the first time in 8 months so I'm hoping to only spend a little, I'm not allowed alcohol due to my bipolar medication so it will be soft drinks all the way so should come under £10 hopefully, we haven't decided if we are going for a meal yet but I have budget £20 for that so I might have quite a bit getting potted tonight
