    Hi all, have been awol for a bit, stuff going on and that but have still been potting away and have just extra sealed my pot and taped over the hole, he is now hidden in a secret location ( just hope I remember it in Nov ). I had to borrow a £1 from dinner money as put all my change into my first pot and didn't like the new one sitting empty without a rattle silly eh. Hugs to all xx.

    My counting jar stopped working. :( It constantly says there's 10p in there. :rotfl:
    Nothing potted today or spent.

    Never mind, it will be a lovely surprise when you count it :)

    Just 20p for me today....the last of the food budget.

    Hi Nell :wave: Hope you are ok x

    Have a lovely sunny day everyone :cool2:

    Been out today to look at trellis aswe have decided the new fence is too short and come back with a retracting hose that DH has wanted for 'agessssssssssssss' (seriously, its like having a third child! :rotfl:) so my free trip out has cost me £40 :eek: . . . plus the £10 we spent on new toys and fruit sticks for the bird (ok that was me :o)

    On the plus side, both DH and George are being very quiet playing with their respective new toys :D :rotfl:

    No pennies for the pot as I had to use the card today having no money in my purse :(

    Afternoon

    Today is the first day I have potted any money since 30 April as I have been using my bank card.

    £4.50 potted today though :D

    This time next week I will have completed my charity run. On Thursday night I ran 5k for the first time so I am a week ahead on the training. I went running again this morning and I did the 5k in 1 minute 6 seconds less than I did it on Thursday :D

    I hope everyone is well xx

    Who are you running for? What distance?
    I'm always impressed with runners I couldn't do that for toffee :o
    Good luck with it :)
    Potted some shrapnel today after a little trip out with my BFF to look at the bluebells :)

    Hi
    Its a 5k for a local school, so not a big race.
    I didn't think I could run, in fact, I couldn't even run for 1 minute, 4 weeks ago, but I followed the couch to 5k app and now I can run for 50 minutes non-stop and could probably go further if I really had to!!
    Have a go, its does work. I run really slowly, but its still running. I think you are supposed to build up distance and then work on speed :D

    It all counts doesn't it, anyone who runs gets my vote :)
    I did try the C25K but only lasted a week - I get so breathless I give up :( even with the intervals it was too hard so I stick to walking. Hope you enjoy next week :)
