Of course you can join us and you're very welcome on the Fred.
If you were on here before then you will know that Sue will be along and give you a number, which you pop on your signature.
Please read the first post to refresh your memory about the challenge and note that we open our pots on the 5th November. Joining now means you can open then or just carry it forward to next year.
Good luck with the challenge

Hi potters!
Ooh, it's getting close! I have opened my last tin for this years challenge and banked my 'full' money bags. I have bought some Xmas presents already with some of my banked money and unfortunately my DH car failed its mot, BOO!! So had to use a big chunk of my banked money on that. Got good news re my little windfall and it will be in my account next week. Yippee!! DH also has passed his HGV driving test and we are hopeful that he will be back in work shortly. 2016 is definitely going to be different for us...........debt free thread here I come!!!
Hope you are all are in good health and are happy!
