    I haven't potted anything for three days, but actually I'm proud of that - it's because I haven't spent any money at all :)

    Hiya everyone :hello:


    Many thanks for the anniversary wishes. It's only me taking early retirement as DH is still working full-time. I do have a couple of little things in the pipe-line though, but it would be from home ;)


    I potted my weekly £7 and then added it all up and took it to the bank. I did put the odd £s etc back and banked £370 :T I have put it on my signature.


    Hope you all have a super Saturday

    Good morning all and happy weekend
    Have just found 25p on the side so have potted it before anyone can claim it. Have found an old tub of coppers that we usually take to the seaside for the slots, but think I am gonna count it and put it in my tub and then if when we go to the coast (not for a few months yet) I will just change a pound or 2 back into 2ps.
    Take care all and enjoy your weekend.
