    Gosh not sure where July has gone! Not much potting for me finally got dissertation finished and submitted, and been to Switzerland for 2 weeks. Means I'm already skint and payday was only last week! 4 weeks to go! :-( while I can't complain about the holidays I get in my job having so long off means I end up spending way too much!

    Morning all, hope all are well.

    moohound - welcome and good luck with your savings.

    Sue - yes, plenty of rain!! But it's needed and the garden looks lovely when wet. lol
    Enjoy your hols, hope you get the weather. It's still warm up here and that sun will come out again. Let's hope the summer lasts until Autumn and beyond.

    Hi all
    well you've all been so busy!
    Glad things are settling down for you e4rub and lynnejk I do hope things continue to get better.

    I've had an expensive start to the month what with the car needing an MOT and service, me buying a new laptop (haven't had one for years) and now DD has decided she needs a new mattress. To be fair hers is 9 years old and she's grown a lot, and she's going halves with me cos she wants a double - which means a whole new bed of course - but it's still something I hadn't budgeted for! Thank goodness for credit cards eh!
    Anyway Patrick hasn't been fed yet this month so I must find some change or he'll get sad :rotfl:
    Enjoy the sun while it lasts :)

    £1.05 for the pot today, and then I was given a new £5 note in my change and I don't want to spend it as its perfect so I've put that in an envelope next to the tin and I'm going to keep any new notes coming my way. They are in the tin without being in the tin so to speak!!
    I'm not a failure if I don't make it, I'm a success because I :tried!
