  • Evening Potters.....


    Well I am feeling RUBBISH tonight....I have a rotten cold which started yesterday (Wednesday)....I thought it was getting better and then I went to bed earlier and woke up again and now I can barely breathe I am so blocked up :(:(:(


    I am taking Flu/Cold Capsules but can't take another one until 1am.....and I can't sleep so I guess I'm sat here.....I don't think I can Work either as I can't really talk....


    So I'm feeling sorry for myself!!!


    On the plus side - Today I managed to Pot a small amount....can't remember how much....just silver....but it felt good to Pot something.... :)


    Hope your DH feels MUCH better soon Sue....x


    I'll try to be more positive for the next time I Post!! xXx :)

  • Hi all!!

    I may be opening my pot early but I'll post up the total after - me and OH have been buying small bits of a certain crockery set and they have went up for sale at 30% off - it would be a fab addition for us and also help save even more pennies in the long run!

    I've really enjoyed this challenge the last two years and I'll be keeping my opened tin to continue potting for next year! :D
