    It doesn't matter how much or how little you save,a bit is better than none.

    kelz84, the amount isn't important, it's the fact that you're saving that's the important bit. Some members struggle to get £20 due to Uni etc and some are on very poor wages, BUT, they SAVE and are sooooo happy! :j I get a HUGE BUZZ out of the delight of it all. Now, you do YOUR darndest and be proud of it! ;)

    A very warm welcome, kelz84. It's lovely to have you with us. :grinheart Enjoy yourself saving and join in the banter. You'll find your number at the bottom of the list on post 5 of page 1. Please read through post 1 as it'll let you know exactly what to do with the challenge.

    Please also subscribe to the thread by clicking on "Thread Tools" (lower green bar) and clicking "Subscribe to this thread"...or you may lose us! To put your SPC No on, go to "Quick Links" (right side of top green bar), click and then click on "Edit Signature" and you're away. ;)

    *Please pop your numbers on your sigs, it really helps.


    You're more than welcome, siju, let it bring you some good luck.

    * Mrs Cheshire could you please change your SPC No as we ALL have new ones now? I expect you missed my notices, but if you could do it as soon as possible I'd be very grateful. :)

    Well, I'm glad the No worked out well for you, Goldiegirl, lucky or what! If you don't visit the thread too much would you please make sure you know that declaration day is 27th November! Just lately so many people have been so terribly late (not you, Gap!), but from now on, to be fair to all the others, it HAS to be around the due date.

    Please take note of the above date, everyone, and pop the date in your diaries/calendars. Thank you so much. :D

    [/Quote=newlifeahead]Yeah:j
    I found my first road kill. It was a shiny £1 coin lying there all alone, homeless and needed to be rescued.
    He is now safe and cosy in Mr Piggy :beer:[/quote]

    Hooray!!!! yay.gifWell done, newlifeahead! Doesn't a gert juicy one like that give you such a real buzz, savour it!!!
    It doesn't matter how much or how little you save, a bit is better than none.

    I couldn't have put it better myself, nanto3girls.

    It's still a ghastly day yer in Somerset, take care, everyone, please!


    PLEASE NOTE everyone: It's time to change your numbers now as they're all done and simply need swapping over. You'll see that there are LOADS less names and numbers now, but it's useless having folk on the list that no longer save with us. However, if old members return then you'll be made very welcome and can still have your name added and be given a new number. :grinheart Please change numbers ASAP folks.

    If you've already updated your No, please could you kindly make sure it's correct as I made a blunder to start with!

    Very many thanks indeed.

    Sue x

    Anyone wishing to join, please just ask, you're more than welcome, it's NEVER too late. There may be a lot of us, but don't be shy, we're a lovely lot, so come on in.:grinheart

  • Meowhouse - just knowing that she's coming to live with us is already giving me so much joy :)

    Sparky - I'm sure your DW would love a little toy poodle :D We used to have a JRT and she was so laid back. At the bird garden they have two and literally all they do is play fight. Once our little girl has had all her injections we are taking her there with us every saturday, i'm hoping they don't lead my little princess astray haha. You are so naughty tricking us like that!!


    49p potted from me this morning!
