    Thank you for the hugs ModestyB

    Hi pickle29, I hope that you were able to figure out your dilemma of the £2 coin

    Thanks for your kind words and hugs Sue, I am glad to say that I am slowlyhealing with my eczema – I was able to eat a couple of crisps in relative comfort.Have still got a little way to go with my set back of mental health issues butlife is like that isn’t it!

    I am sorry for loss AlwaysHappy, keeping you in my thoughts if ok and sending lotsof squishy hugs – again only if ok.

    I am sorry that I missed your anniversary jakes-mum, how lovely our DH boughtyour flowers from the co – @p. I am glad that you had a nice quiet day!

    I love your money box 166million, very funky! :)

    No potting again for me today as another NSD for me, I thinkthat I am going to have a scrabble around to see if I can find some homekill!

    Sending lots of hugs where ok

    Lucy xx

    Thanks everyone for the support - its lovely having a virtual family on here!!
    Glad you got some flowers Jakes - Mum, like you say though interflora is a rip off.
    Well done on the job lynnejk - your pot is going to be well fed isn't it. Unusual to be paid by cheque these days isn't it.
    Ooh 166million, am loving the money box, just think of how many lovely £2 coins that will hold....
    joee - you can't have too many squishy hugs - I'll take all that I can thanks!!
    £2.50 for the pot today, disappointed though - put a q tip in (sorry!!!) - and couldn't reach the coins yet - so a bit disappointed - serves me right for being nosey - lesson learnt!!!
    I'm not a failure if I don't make it, I'm a success because I :tried!

    Oooo I want a squidy hug!!! Just asked DH for one and he's looking at me like ive lost the plot :rotfl:

    AND I want one of those money boxes as well :D

    Oooo Joee, feel for you with the eczema, my lad suffers on and off and had it all through his baby years, so very uncomfortable :( gentle hugs from afar to not aggravate it

    £1 FB sale today and sent DS to the shop to get some milk and he brought all my change back in 10p's :eek: I had to pot them as they would have weighed my purse down too much ;)

    Gave DH a feel of the pot today, he nearly broke his hand from the weight :rotfl: might be time to stick it on the scales :D:D

    Hi all,

    I've not been very good at keeping up with the thread of late, but I've kept potting and today I banked £27.11 and have updated my total to reflect that. I'm chuffed to bits to have saved £140.16 this year without noticing the pennies leaving my purse :j

    Hi All - another 20p in the pot this morning.

    I am still waiting for the mammogram Sparky but am working on the basis that I will worry when I need to.......a little easier said than done at some moments, but working on it :)
