    Well, I have just had a REALLY good sleep and I am up bright and early as I'm out at Placement today....and then out tonight as well....so won't be back home until around 9pm....


    Thanks Sue and Scotmum....I've been feeling a bit rough the past couple of days....but hopefully I will start to feel better soon...all I can do is keep on with the Tablets and hopefully it will help.... :)


    Decided to Pot £6.65 this morning as I had a little bit of spare change....So I'm feeling pleased about that :D:D:D


    Right....I'd better go and have some Brekkie....Catch you all later on....Hope you ALL have a WONDERFUL Thursday xXx :)
  • Hello fellow potters!

    Am pleased to say I have potted £2 today after a busy week. I'd also like to announce the safe arrival of my daughter Lucy who was born on the 5th March (can't believe it Sue) weighing 7 pounds 7 ounces. She is a little cutie and we are both doing well.

    Hope everyone has been having a successful few potting weeks!
    Trying for a super saving year :j:

    Morning all, hope all are well.

    chasingthedream - congratulations and hopefully a future "potter" in years to come.

    scotmumof3 - good news and no doubt a relief.

    Not much going on here, but good news yesterday with cars MOT - only need a single bulb and they didn't even charge for it. £29.99 well spent, especially as we had a "reserve" of up to £200. Cheapest ever MOT. lol

    3 x £1 coins potted, but I'll probably change another tenner at the weekend and pot, thanks to MOT.

    Cold this morning, but not moaning as the weather has been very kind.
    Almost gardening time!!

  • Hi, can i be added please. I do save regular money, which will not be included, but I draw money out every fortnight for groceries etc, and what is left i put into money jars. I have a £1/£2 jar, a 10p/20p/50p jar, a 5p jar and one for coppers. I probably have about £70 in them so far, I do count it, but I will stop counting and then add them all together at the end of the year if thats ok.
