    £4.58 potted today. 1x £2 coin, 2 x £1 coins, off winning scratchcard, odds and ends including 4p roadkill.

    We bought DH some scratchcards for his birthday yesterday and he actually won £9.:j It's very rare anything good comes his way, apart from me that is :p :rotfl:

    Hugs to all.

    Tis true Sue :( but they will not get invited again next year, one of the mums ignored last years invite aswell so I think twice is enough :(

    2 x £2 coins in the tin today and some odd coinage that I forgot to count.

    On a good note, had my weekly weigh in at mums today on her super duper digital scales and im now at just under 8st 9lbs :j :j which means ive put on 5lbs in a month which will please the dietitian when she rings (and everyone else as they were getting a tad worried :o) still very much missing my icecream and chocolate and have yet to find anything to replace them :( but at least the weight is going the right way again

    Hi everyone
    Although I very rarely post I do follow the thread. I'm potting a little every week but I don't keep a running total. There's very little (none) road kill up here but I keep looking.
