    Morning all and another nice one.

    Merrylegs1 - welcome to the thread and good luck with your savings.

    lucyhope - "onwards and upwards" indeed. You have been through it sadly. Take care of yourself.

    Not much going on here, but managed to pot 3 x £1 coins over the weekend.
    See what this week brings, but still being frugal. Being frugal still gets you change though. lol

    Hi all,

    Hope everyone had a good weekend and hugs where they are needed :)

    Not been posting or potting much as I've had a hectic week but should be back on it now (even though I'm trying not to spend any money at all!)

    I think I've got £1.45 to pot later :)

    I've paid my money in. It took a few attempts; so not too sure how much actually went in.

    Sorry so many of you suffering in the heat - I just love it and suffer the rest of the year when it's cold :( Wouldn't do if we were all the same eh

    Yup, this is me too. Scotland really wasn't the best place for me to be born. It is currently 26 degrees in the office. If it gets any lower I will be putting my cardi on :o

    Potted my change left over from the weekend. It was less than £1 but is safely in my pot. It is getting heavier now so although I don't expect to have a fortune come November, I know I have done my best. A little bit at a time works for me rather than thinking about what I am not putting in and getting depressed :cool::D

    Potted a satisfying £3.00 bringing me to £15.30 potted so far. Slowly but surely moving towards the target of £175.00! :)

    And Sue, this is probabrly me being stupid and not looking properly, but I can't seem to find my number. I checked on the first page a secound ago and I can't see it on the list. Sorry to be a pain, but would you mind checking this for me please? :D

    Afternoon!

    Lucyhope - how horrid, hope things improve soon x

    Trixxibell - 4 days and counting for me too!

    I have spent the morning cleaning up the house (not really sure how it gets so messy when i;m hardly ever in :-s) and in an attempt to not hit the shops with my last few pounds & the credit card dug my bike out and took it for a spin...free & good for me!

    Small donation to my newly sealed pot done.

    1 pesky penny potted. It refused to go into the coin counting machine that Natwest have after about 4 attempts...
