    Excellent work and budgeting, claireyfairy!! So very much to be delighted with. :T

    Well done, jakes-mum. Sadly it takes a time not to feel like that, but you'll get there and possibly not realise it until it suddenly hits you.

    Yep, you said it, CommitedToChange, and it's so true.

    Oh didn't he do brilliantly, mumof3plusoh!! :T Though however they do a standing triple jump is way beyond me! :undecided
    A very goodnight to everyone.

    Ah, but you would have missed it in Scotland, Lynne, wouldn't you? All down to premature devolution I expect, though that's not the normal word that follows premature! :rotfl:;) Behave yourself Sue for goodness sake! :naughty: Well done with the Tree's height...a sign that you 'potted' it well! :rotfl:

    Sue x








    Now Sue-UU I might well live in Scotland but I can assure you that there is not a hint of premature anything in THIS house - especially on a Sunday :laugh:


    Well done everyone potting - all of you doing so well. I love reading all the posts but wish I could find roadkill. I keep looking but don't think around here it lasts long :mad: and either someone gets to it before me or it's not a Scottish trait to throw money on the floor :rotfl:


    Potted a Super Sunday £1


    Hope you all have a Marvellous Monday

    Been awake since 2am! :eek::eek: So, what else can a woman do other than sort her new SP out!
    Shopped til we dropped in Bath Saturday but made a few savings which have been potted (£27). Had a coup on the Tesco website as managed to boost myTESCO POINTS from£39 to £78 which meant the phone I ordered eventually cost £21. Have added £30 to the pot and will add the other £48 over the next few months - slight cash flow iproblem in this house, our cash seems to have flown. LOL! But Christmas presses are all sorted. Hooray!

    Have a good Christmas everyone! :xmastree: :rudolf::santa2:

    Morning potters.Welcome to new members.Everyone seems to be doing well with their potting.
    Off to in-laws later.I go twice a week, to do housework for them.
  • Good morning everyone.
    This thread really does move quickly :)

    Potted £20.17 yesterday. My first 2p road kill, 15p left over from last weeks weekly budget. My sister also gave my £40 which she owed me, so I have potted £20 of it and the other £20 will go into the holding pot. That was a great idea, thanks to whoever mentioned it :beer:
