    Hello

    Oh dear I fear I am one of the ones who hasn't returned.......

    Please please please may I rejoin? Up to you if you give me a new number, or my old one is on my sig still. Apologies for not popping in sooner, or at all the whole year. I'm afraid sometimes life just gets in the way and that's the only excuse I have:o. Last years total was £33.75, also £110 in my £2 pot - add this in too if you like? I'll also go investigate the old thread in case I should have put this info there!!

    I hope that everyone is ok - the wind is just getting really strong here - everyone stay inside and safe and warm tonight. Will try much harder to pop in occasionally. Merry Christmas to all

    £3 potted today.Been a busy day cleaning windows and a few other jobs.Wet and wild here tonight.Stay safe everybody.
  • Some amazing amounts being flung in to those pots, making me feel a little envious that I only have 56p to add to mine today, but its going in the right direction isn't it, and would have been wasted if in my purse.

    That's still a great amount!! It it more than nothing which makes it fantastic!!!

  • Well what a lot has been happening with everyone!

    I've got my £5 for another lunch not spent and some other change in my wallet after finally getting the last bit - not sure what's there tho?

    Currently in bed with a really heavy cold and stupid and really annoying cough that has not stopped since 3.38 am this morning so yes i'm feeling very sorry for myself!:(

    Trying to watch surprise surprise and the wind is so strong it's off more than its on :eek: ( I know I'm sad but thought the stories might make me feel better) its not really working

    It's really good to hear the positive potting tho and every little adds up:T

    Take care everyone and stay warm
