    Happy Birthday Atolaas' son :bdaycake:

    I've been wondering where our Sparky is too, not like him to be MIA for so long :( missing my partner in crime LC2 as well :(

    £1.50 in the pot today from a FB sale, was actually DS's but as he owes me £2.80 I decided to help him out by keeping the money from the sale ;)

  • Evening all

    I've been MIA since approx May. I'm sad to say I deserted the MSE site and way of life. :( :mad: mainly due to going back to work after mat leave and my goodness there's just not enough hours in the day, and I'm only part time.

    I have continued to pot occasionally when I can afford it however being on a part time wage has restricted this somewhat.

    Anyway will try and pop on every week or so from now on. Don't want to lose my number. :D

    Hope everyone's well.

    ETO.

    66p potted on Friday. I've got a lot of change from the weekend so hoping some of that will end up sealed away.

    Well done everyone, lots going into pots! :)

  • Morning, just chucked in some change from the weekend....around £4 I think, so that has made up for the pot raid carried out on Friday!

    I'm off work this week & have a busy (& probably quite expensive -but budgeted for!) end of week planned. Yippeee!

    I have a few coppers which I will pot when I get home. Only slightly concerned that 80% of my pot might be coppers...

    I was a bit sporadic for a while so I don't know if I missed this. Did sparky have to go do something or did he just disappear? Hope everything is ok.
