    Hiya everyone :hello:


    Feeling a bit :( today as foot still not very good -a little better but not much. I absolutely dislike not being able to just get on and do things - it's so frustrating :mad:
    Sorry - rant over

    Hope you're feeling better Jakesmum

    Potted my weekly £7 today. At least I'm not spending as can't get out so that's a plus :)

    Another £1.14 potted for me today. I would have thought there would be more as I haven't potted for a few days but it appears the elves have been in my purse. Hmmmm

    I spent £20 out of my coin jar last monday at the carboot.
    So I'm down to £8+

    but I did move £20 from my current account into my savings to make up for it since thats where my coins will eventually go anyway.

    I have added £33 to my pot from changing up my left over euros, bringing my total to over my target but will keep going, you never know I may well add to it when I win the grand national later :-)

    Aha What horse did you pick?
    I've picked rebel rebellion because I felt that suited me.
    My family chooses a horse each year since I was little.
