    Saw your signature - well done for trying to give up the weed. Keep trying - I know it's hard and there is a thread on here somewhere to help. Can't remember where but maybe someone else can help :huh:

    Had a great roadkill find today. Was on my Sunday morning with walk with a friend and we started spotting roadkill on the floor. Someone had obviously been walking along and throwing their small change.

    Followed the little trail and double checked on the way back. I found 17p. :D I have given it a safe new home in my sealed pot!! ;)

    DD is away this weekend, she's got a busier social life than we have!!

    Just deciding whether to stay at home and tidy up a bit or whether to go to Church.... :A

    Hope everyone has a great Sunday. x

    I haven't posted on here for a week or so, but I have still been potting steadily. 10p here, 20p there etc. On the plus side, I haven't been to the cash machine for a while, so I figure that's pretty positive!

    Hi Sue
    I'll be back early next week. I've actually taken 2 extra days off work - tomorrow to faff about and get organised, and Tuesday to sleep! :rotfl: It's going to be pretty full-on :eek:
    I've been getting nervous but I'm back to excited now.


    Very wise in taking time off, Rosy, you're definitely going to need that day to sleep. I'm thinking of you and will see you the week after next as I'm going on holiday tomorrow!

    The New Forest is home to us all, 32b3, and you're right, it's beautiful!! :j Have a great time in Vegas!!! Well done with the money raised at Church!!!!
    little_sweetie It would be fantastic! But poor Sue having to cope with us all haha!

    Oh, I reckon I could do that, Ruth, what an atmosphere it would be!! :grinheartHi hope you have some joy with the holiday cottages and getting away, it does us all a world of good.

    Thanks Sue for the support - it means a lot to me to know someone's on my side. Hope to be potty again very soon now

    I'm always there, Lynne, but never doubt the fact that we're all here for each other!

    Very well done, Lulu!!

    Churches (or those who go to them) can either be loving or anything but, Modesty! I had one experience that put me off for good. You have a wonderful time next month! :j

    What a gorgeous day its been! Everyone must be out enjoying the weather and not posting. £2.20 potted today xx

    You got it right, atolaas, well either that or on holiday. It's been simply gorgeous weather and we have to enjoy it while it's here. :D


    Talking of weather....WHERE ARE YOU sparky?????!! You've been missing for FAR too long!

    Congratulations on the job, Hope, but whatever does DHT mean???
    Sorry for being away for awhile. Have been trying to juggle things at home and my temp work. Been still potting money, putting what I saved into my savings and finding road change.

    It's wonderful to see you back, Kerry!!! I hope things are a little easier for you now. :)
    I am struggling to resist the urge to open my tins!

    Keep resisting that urge, credit_crunch, you'll regret it come November! Treat it as a bomb and ...keep well away!!!!! :eek:

    The weather is back, Lynsey.....isn't it??!

    Good to see you, mossy! Brilliant with that 17p roadkill!!! :D

    £10 in my pot and now........we're off on holiday for about a week!!!!!! :j TAKE CARE EVERYONE - see you soon!!! :wave:


    Have a great week, folks, and very happy saving.

    Sue x
