    Well, we're back from our mystery weekend, we went to Eastbourne, had wonderful weather on Saturday, I was walking around with no coat on! Went a bit mental in Lakeland and spent rather a lot, but some of it was in the sale (my excuse and I'm sticking to it) Still potting quietly away, at least £1 a day, some days it's more but I'm not keeping count so it will be a nice surprise on Opening Day.

    Got apple chutney cooking at the moment to use up the last of the Bramleys. Hope to make orange and apricot marmalade tomorrow , if I can find enough jars!
    Money going into the pot quickly as there is the possibility of a rescue 5month old deerhound cross lurcher in the near future, fingers crossed.
    Hugs to those that need/want one,

    Just found a further £2.25 in loose change which has been potted.

    I have never found any coins on our pavements!

    Cauliflower, sorry to hear about your baby being ill. Hope she is on the mend now.

    Lucy, glad that you enjoyed your mystery weekend to eastbourne. I had a lovely holiday there with mum, we were hoping to revisit but mum had a severe stroke which has left her disabled. We have fun reminiscing though about the holidays we have had together.

    Hope you all have a pleasant evening.

    Nothing potted today but I resisted withdrawing some cash 'just incase' I needed anything at the shop which is a bad habit.
