    Hi folks, sorry it's been so long since I checked in but I've been potting, £5 today including 2 x £2 coins :)
    Hope everyone's had a lovely bank holiday weekend.
    Sue we walked from Seaton to Exmouth is that near you? Sunday was lovely! Pity about the rain on Saturday!

    Happy birthdays all round, and thanks for the invite little_sweetie, I'm a day late but I'm good at eating cake :D

    The weekend starting tomorrow is the Bank Holiday weekend Sue :D

    How are you getting on with your potting?

    Sorry you have a bad week but I am glad you are felling better xx


    Hello, 32b3 and everyone, well I certainly got that wrong about the BH weekend, I was convinced it was next weekend, but a quick chat with DD soon put me right. :o I hope everyone had a lovely weekend.


    I'm not too bad now thanks, 32b3, DH has still been saving wonderfully, bless him, we even won another £25 on the Lotto and we were thrilled at potting that. :j
    Evening potters, hope it has been a lovely day for you all. I'm celebrating my birthday today in Lake Maggiore and it is so beautiful. Had a lovely surprise, there was a knock on our hotel room door, my oh went and I could hear him say they aren't ours, but the hotel had seen from my passport it was my birthday and brought a platter of food and a bottle of prosecco with two glasses - what a lovely gesture. Will be back to potting ASAP!!

    A very Happy (though belated) Birthday to you, AlwaysHappy, and I hope you had a really lovely day and you're both having a marvellous time in Switzerland/Italy?. What a place for a holiday!! :eek:


    It's great to see you've settled in well, atolaas, thanks a lot for putting your SPC No on your siggy. I'm getting much better, thank you and well done with your first roadkill!!

    A really Happy Birthday for you tomorrow, LC 2, have a fabulous day which will no doubt be shared with the family. :j T & I are thinking of you as we share some cake. :bdaycake:
    My pre holiday total was £168 :j

    I'll amend my signature, new pot starting on 1st June :)

    Brilliant savings, queen of cheap!! :T That's a nice stash for your holiday, enjoy yourselves whenever you go. Thanks for sorting out your siggy.

    It's so good to hear your DD will not let it all get to her, Modesty, a very brave lass and congratulations to her on her promotion!!! :T

    I joined this time, although I don't have a pot since I need all my change for parking. But every time I put money in my parking purse I transfer some to my web savings account.

    There is £215 in there now! Might be over £400 by Xmas :T

    Hi there, bossymoo, it's lovely to see you! Could you please add No 91 to your siggy for me? Many thanks and keep on saving as you are as you can still be included with us! :j


    Thanks a lot for the help there, little_sweetie, you're quite right so here's a star. :staradmin

    Good to see you, Lucy, keep with us when you can and stay well. :)

    Hi Rosy! Nah, afraid not. Seaton's closest but we're way further in land and towards the Yeovil (Somerset) direction. We used to live near Sidmouth in Devon, brilliant that was, we lived on a hill overlooking the sea - utter bliss! We're deep in the country here though and just as idyllic as the sea but we get down to Weymouth or Sidmouth (3/4 hr) ASAP. BTW Rosy, is it possible that your yoga was via a DVD? I'm suffering a lot from the same problems as you..as well as the arthritis and could do with some help, if possible. :(


    Enjoy Tuesday, SPCers, and keep on saving.

    Sue x


    Anyone wishing to join, please just ask, you're more than welcome. :D

    Good morning everyone
    Would wave but my smilies won't work any ideas would be welcome lol.
    XLC2
    Hi. Mine haven't worked for months. If you click on the [more] at the bottom of the smilies list you will get another window open. If you maximise that you get all the inputs for all the smilies. I wrote down the ones I use mostly and now know them but it's still useful for the odd one :dance:

    Still not potting ATM but hope to be back in shortly :)


    Hope you all have a great Tuesday

    Morning all, well, I'm back from Italy now - it was so beautiful and really didn't want to leave there. I'm determined to spend my birthday there again next year, so I'm going to have to hit this pot hard.
    Starting off with a £ this morning to feed it, but hope there will be lots more over the coming weeks.
    I'm not a failure if I don't make it, I'm a success because I :tried!

    Sue
    Sorry, should have replied sooner :( The yoga I do is a class at the local church hall so no use to you I'm afraid :(
    Can anyone else recommend a yoga DVD for Sue?
    Cheers Rx
