    I don't normally dip lynnejk & Westie983, I have an overflow pot, but due to a few birthdays n lack of planning, it was emptied, n I did not have my £1 for the locker at the gym on a couple of occasions. And with £100 nearly in change, it seemed silly to not take it, but I've rearranged my finances so my overflow gets topped up more - point taken though. Happy potting everyone and have a good weekend.

    Morning all, hope all are well.

    A little duller today, but NO complaints at all. It's been a very good April.

    Save Dosh - good target. Good luck, that will come in handy for Xmas.

    I potted my final coins for the week. 4 x £1 coins and I think £15 for the week. Anything I receive today will go towards next weeks £10+.
    I'm aiming for £500 by the end of May.
    Weighed my pot this morning and God, It's putting on weight!! lol
    3.8kg - only £2 and £1 coins.

    Have a great weekend.
