Evening All
Thank You for all the well-wishes for my Trip down to Cornwall....I am so looking forward to seeing everyone....even though it will be super-hectic....But it will be so lovely to spend time with my Family and take some time to relax after a difficult 6 months with my health....

Hi all,
I haven't been around much lately- decorating my son's bedroom and the baby's room has taken over my house, my evenings and weekends, and pretty much just life!
However, I got back into the potting way today by emptying my purse of all coins and potted £3.74. £3 went into the £ tin and the rest went into my big Quality Streets tub.
They're definitely filling up nicely, but need to make more of an effort to be a bit more committed to potting!CC1: £4481.14/ £5031.14 (12% paid off, £600) | CC2:£3307/ £3807 (14.4% paid off, £550) | Loan: £10,528.20/ £15,792.30((33% paid off, £5,264))
