    Tried to post earlier, but I think my wifi connection was dodgy.

    Silver coins potted - about £2 in total, I think.

    Hello again Happy Potters! Great savings still being made by all, continue on in your quest to have saved as much as YOU possibly can by the 5th November! Here's hoping you're all well, but for those who might not be or who are perhaps a little under the weather for some other reason, here are special {{{Hugs}}} in the hope that you'll be feeling much better soon, or that life gets a whole lot better for you.

    Hello there, Rosy! It's so lovely to see you again, though I see from you siggy that you're still keeping up the saving well. Keep up the great work!

    Well done, Ben.
    Hi Sue and friends!

    I've been lovingly chastised by my dear friend Westie to resume my sealed pot so here I am!!

    I did really well last year but this year got started and then just kind of well.......stopped!

    I think the thing was I got waylaid on the diaries instead of challenges. I've still got a love of the diaries but want to get back into the fun of the challenges too!

    So here I am, still a bit of time until pot-opening time in November, then I can start afresh after that and no-one will be any the wiser....(Will they??:cool:)


    Mmmmm hummingbird, I should jolly well think Westie would have chastised you for failing in your pot duties. :naughty: Anyway, as you've noticed, you've still time left to pot as much as possible....so get cracking (as I see you really are, excellent! :j) and you won't be too disappointed at having forgotten about it. You did do well last year so when we start up again on the 6th Nov...pledge to do better next time round! You'll get there! ;)


    Thanks so much for your kind words, Lynne, I do hope it's successful as she definitely needs something to help with it as her legs have become so much weaker. Still just waiting now for the drug then the Nurse to show her - and she will be away! :D DH & I are at last beginning to feel a little excited about the hopes it raises. Thanks Lynne, and well done with the £10er.

    Many thanks everyone for your kind thoughts about our DD and her treatment for MS, here's hoping it will do the job without too many side effects! Your kindness is much appreciated, truly. :happyhear

    Thanks a lot, 32b3, and well done with that saving!

    Great news, Emily! All the best for your DH's training, I do so hope he'll pass the test. Best wishes to him, you too!

    Thanks so much, jakes-mum. Let's hope your DS won't even attempt to take any more of your savings, though I don't blame you for securing it....just in case. ;)

    I hope you're still doing well, Helen, and are determined to stay that way. Thanks so much for your thoughts, it means a lot.

    And yesterday I cashed in most of my coins and it came to £17.00and a few pence.

    Ok, Moonbean, I've changed your old name for the new on and hope it brings a change of luck for you. If the £17 you've already counted has been banked then don't forget to add it to your siggy so you don't forget it.

    All the best with your wifi connection, Vicky, I hope all's well. Good saving.

    Good to see you being more regular..so to speak, KONG. It's great to see folk return to the thread as our counting up day gets closer. Keep doing so folk! :grinheart


    Another £13 in the pot.

    Here's to a happy Monday, folks, and don't forget - those pots need filling!!

    Sue x
