    Short of advertising on the ruddy telly.....that made me chuckle!! :rotfl:

    No spending = no potting here. DD is away on a sleep over tomorrow (at least she'll have a warm night that way) which includes a surprise trip to London and the Christmas market in Hyde Park....lucky things!! :xmastree: Still no heating or hot water here :eek: (immensely grateful that we have an electric shower!!!). My boss is going to get her hubby to come over and take a look at the boiler tonight seeings as DH is away until Sunday. Fortunately someone at work asked me the sensible question of did I have a gas fire...I replied no and then remembered actually there is one in the front room...which is now blasting out some heat! So whatever I'm doing tomorrow it will be happening in here!! :D

    Have a lovely weekend everyone....stay warm and well!! :)

    A very warm welcome, Pickle29. It's lovely to have you with us. :grinheart 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 pop your numbers on your sigs, it really helps.


    Pickle29, you really do sound so fed up with that pot, in which case I won't even bother to try to get you to keep saving in it. Having said that, why not paint it or do some sort of design on or around it?! Worth a thought to save some cash?

    Kerry, that was a perfect welcome, thank you, for which you deserve a gold star. :staradmin :) Another good day for you with potting, well done.

    Even if you don't pot anything over the weekend, 32b3, you've done wonderfully over the last week.

    I'm glad it gave you a chuckle, mossy, it's giving me a bloomin headache, but those that want to will turn up in their own good time. D'you reckon this is the time to tell folk when we count up next year?! :rotfl:
    Fingers crossed for the boss' hubby sorting the boiler for you. Your DD will have a ball up there, good luck to her. You shouldn't be too bad with heat over the weekend is the cold weather's pretty much gone for the mo. Still, just in case.....wrap up! :D Sorry mossy, how could I resist it.
    Off to Poland next week so want to have everything finished before we go.

    SUE where is LC ??

    JAKES-MUM

    keep Sue and Sparky in order :rotfl:

    That's a laugh, LC 2, you (of all folk) telling her (of all folk) to keep sparky and I (of all folk) IN ORDER.!! Hahaha :rotfl:

    I'm sure I'm right in saying that Little Chicken didn't come on last year so I doubt she will this either. However, never give up hope.

    You & DH have a wonderful time in Poland, just don't do anything to disgrace yourself. :A
    Have a good Friday, folks, and have a wonderful weekend!

    Anyone wishing to join, please just ask, you're more than welcome, it's NEVER too late. There may be a lot of us, but don't be shy, we're a lovely lot, so come on in.:grinheart
    Please read the 1st post on Page 1 first so you know what's what.
