    Morning all.

    jakes-mum - nice to hear they are ok.

    My 2nd pot is starting to add a bit of weight and no more "tinny" sound when potting.

    Potted 2 x £2 coins and I have some bits to sort out later (20p's).
    Although there is still a long way to go, I'm "itching" to start bagging-up.
    Maybe I'll have to buy some anti-itching powder. lol

    Hope you are all enjoying the "proper" summer this year.
    I'll have to soak the garden tonight!! Glad I'm not on a water meter!!

    Well it started out a bit dull and miserable here this morning. I had to put my cardigan on in the office (the boss is in the room next to me with his fan on). The sun has come out now and it is getting a bit warmer so I might just take my cardi off again!

    Potted some change from in my purse last night. A lovely £1 coin went in and about 16p :)

    An early start for me today - I've still got Mum here, (had) 52 items on my todo list and still wanting to spend some quality time with her so I've been rushing round like the proverbial fly. £1.40 for the tin already - change from getting petrol, so off to a good start - only 40 things left to go......
    I'm not a failure if I don't make it, I'm a success because I :tried!

    Wow AlwaysHappy that's some list!! You are going to be a busy bee x

    For me it's the vets this morning as I had to work late Wednesday so a bit anxious about that for my old girl - she hates it too - gets proper stressed which is awful but we need to discuss this lump and they way forward - it seems to have shrunk a bit ,but not much - and I am fearing the worst and that it will be something expensive that may not save her :( but really not ready to say goodbye yet so not looking forward to it....

    Think I'd rather have your list AlwaysHappy

    I am going to put my £3 left in my purse into my pot to cheer myself up x

    Hope all is well with everyone else

    Morning all, not as good here today. Hoping the mist burns off later, but need a nice break I suppose.

    Potted 4 x 20p and a 50p = £1.30 potted.

  • morning everyone

    not been potting much - more like delving into my change to make ends meet lol. However as much as its been depleted I did pot a few loose coins here and there so all isnt lost.

    (sig doesnt show my 1p/2p/5p count at the moment.....I just put those away and forget to tally them, lol)
