    A belated Happy Anniversary Jakes-Mum - its little things that mean a lot isn't it and it would have been nice if the family had thought about it. Anyway you've got us lot!!
    Ouch re the excema joee, that sounds painful. I get really dry hands that sometimes crack which is bad enough, its very difficult to protect our hands in particular as they are always on show. Hope you got something that works for you from the doctors.
    I'm not a failure if I don't make it, I'm a success because I :tried!

    Belated Anniversary Wishes jakes-mum, hope you had a lovely day and that you'll have many more. :beer:

    tatabubbly, congrats on the new job, hope you'll be very happy in it. :T:T

    joee, ((hugs)) :grouphug:

    Hugs to all who need one.

    Haven't potted anything yet today, It's pension day so I'll be sorting that out later. ( Not DH Sue ;) )

    Not very happy today, me and DD went to see Jonathan Antoine last night, he was appearing with Russell Watson in B/ham. We didn't get the seats we booked, could hardly see the stage and Jonathan only sang three blooming songs. In all it cost £74 to see him sing 3 songs and 2 of those were with RW! I don't like RW! :mad:

    Hi all,
    Ive not been on the thread for a while but i thought i would come by and say Hi!!
    All been going well here, i have filled one pot already, and have started on the other one (i bought two of the kelloggs tins from H*me B*rgains with Tony Tiger on them) for in my kitchen and now they have a purpose rather than just sitting there gathering dust!!
    I found in my car a make up bag the other day, lifted it up only to find it was my old change bag from when i used to do the markets, there was £12.50 bagged up in change that i had completely forgotten about, they must have been in there about 2 years!! So i took great pleasure in emptying them into my tin :)

    Massive hugs to everyone and i will be back soon :)

    Happy Potting!!

    Great Discovery in the car lea lea! I love pots and tins and I would like to have more of them, but the four I have are mostly empty so I need to concentrate on filling them first!

    Afternoon all.

    jakes-mum - belated anniversary wishes - hope you had a great day.

    LeaLea89 - nice find after all that time.

    Potted 4 x £1 coins and a 50p = £4.50 potted.
    That's it for this week, catch up after the weekend.

    Take care and no more illnesses.

    Keep up with the potting.

    Just received £2 coin in my change! Now got a dilemma - to pot or not to pot? It's only Tuesday and hubby gets paid weekly so I normally sort money out and pot whatever I have spare or find on Saturdays! Now I'm not so sure.

    If I pot. Will it make me short or will I manage? Probably manage but don't know, didn't do a big shop this week so am buying milk, bread etc as I need it/ run out!

    Any ideas kind people???

    Pop it in a holding pot until you know what to do with it. That way, if you really don't need it you will have it waiting for you come Saturday.

  • Hi everyone hope you are all keeping well and your pots are jingling nicely...

    I havent been round much lately alot going on at home...and also havent so much been adding to my pot as I have been taking away when I need to catch the bus, something I am not used to as always had a car til now.

    So now nicer weathers coming in I will be walking more often but in mean time when I need to bus it I will make sure I have change in me. :D
