Sometimes you just have to just throw professionalism "out of the window" ........................ perhaps this was one of those times.

Yes, I'm regretting it now. Knowing the child and mother well, mother would probably have supported me anyway.

Got all excited when I saw 2x £2 coins in an old purse til I realised they were 2euro coins!
Oh well, I'll just have to go on holiday next year

gottogo - unless you're serious about going away next year then why not pop them in a separate pot for when you do.

Had to spend £20 on a carbon monoxide detector today though :eek: :wall: still better to be safe than sorry!! DH has ordered a new fan unit for the central heating which should arrive on Tuesday. Hopefully when he fits it, it fixes the problem!!

You said it all there, mossy, you can never put a price on life! Best wishes to you for things looking up. :kisses3:

Ok Helen, now put on a CD you love, or watch the tv for a while, anything you like doing to help take your mind from other thoughts. For now, here's a {{{{HUG}}}} and a :kisses3: Tomorrow's another day, go for a lovely walk and breathe deeply.

Very well done, Lilmiss, you're doing great.

I'm back safe and sound, it was lovely and sunny, and the wind's dropped a lot.
Heard about those poor people having to stand and watch their house fall into the sea - can't imagine how they must be feeling

Our school Christmas fair was today.I gave the 3 eldest children £5 each to spend(didn't trust the 4yo with a fiver,so relied on her to ask daddy for money if she saw something she wanted something :rotfl:).Seperate to this,I took £10 to pay for my own snacks,kids asking for more money,etc.I planned to pot the change when I got home.
Except,guess what.....
NO CHANGE :eek:.
Mental note to take more money to fairs next year to stand a chance of being able to pot at end of day :cool:

However,my pot shall be fed tonight:
the other night as I was filling children's (sewn) Advent calenders with chocolates,some chocolate coins fell down between the sofa(a corner unit).At the time I was only able to retrieve one of the chocs:the others seemed to disappear under one of the sofas.
Tonight I bothered to separate the couple of pieces the sofa comes in,looking for the chocs that fell between.GONE!!Couldn't find the chocs anywhere,but I did find a real £1 coin,so that will go in my pot for today :A

OH going out with children tomorrow,so must make a start on planning Christmas presents :eek: as well as do a bit of tidying.Not expecting to have anything to pot,unless people around here have been really careless with their shrapnel :rotfl:

lynnejk

GOSH what a lot of posts to catch up !!


A BIG :hello: to more newbies - SUE-UU Did you put that request out on the telly and I missed it :rotfl:

Sending a BIG HUG but hope you feeling better now and can put it in a drawer for another day.


Well - I made a decision and I don't care about the BAH-HUMBUG I am not putting up tree and decs. There are no children coming over here during Chrissy and it looks like DH will be working long nights and some aways next 2 weeks so would have to get them out and up myself - not really on. Also will only have to rush around to get them all down again before I pack for holidays as like to leave place clean and tidy to return to.


I digress so back to topic - Super Saturday £1 potted and soooo


DRUM-ROLL PLEASE - Tree is now 3 inches high :j


Having a Smashing Sunday everyone

£1.25 potted here.

ALM2013

Potted £2.71 yesterday, also got myself a new MASSIVE tin, which I gave to break open so all the more need to fill it to the brim !!

Will be on the lookout around work, but must be careful as if I saw someone looking around for money and taking it, I would think thief haha.

Keep potting!!
