    Oh Hickles, thats so rubbish about your rings, hope they turn up again :(

    Have finally got round to putting the tree up and all my little village scenes :D DD has just set one going with the music so im surrounded by LED's with 'We wish you a merry christmas' piping at me. Haven't even started my comps today as it took me well over 2 hrs to get the tree up :eek: DD was thrilled when she walked in though, sadly, this will probably be our last year of 'father christmas' as shes already told gran and DS that he doesn't exist :( Totally gutted to say the least as even in my 30's I still like to have a tiny part of me still believe and I could pretend through the kids, but they get older and the magic goes, just thought i'd get a bit longer than 6 years :o

    On a potting note, sold my old slow cooker for £8 and another meerkat for £20! :eek:, my dad and my uncle popped over so I changed up a £5er with each of them (both of who had a £2 coin :D :j :D) so put £7 in the terramundi and 3 x £2 coins in the £2 coin tin and have £25 in notes in my pocket to change up and pot (as I still had the £10er from the last meerkat as well) plus I should have someone picking up another meerkat for another £20 tonight :eek:

    Afternoon everyone, another 30p in the tin tonight, every little helps ! I am getting so excited about the big reveal of the amounts, are there still lots of people who haven't declared yet? Do we know where they live cos we could go and remind them - nicely of course.
    I'm not a failure if I don't make it, I'm a success because I :tried!

    Hi all
    Can I please join you?
    Would love to save to help with a few extra treats with Christmas next year. I would like a target of £300.
    Now I just need to sort myself out a pot to save it all in.

    Debt-free and Proud!
    Thanks guys. Hickles I'm sorry about your rings. Do you think they've 'disappeared' in the same way the money from your pot did? :/
    Debt free 6th December 2014 :)
