    Wishing all potters a very happy, healthy and money-saving 2016:beer:

    Transferred the contents of my Holding Pot to my SP last night and there were a lot of small-value coins in there. Didn't count them as I want a surprise come November;).

    Kept back the £2 coins as can't afford to pot and save anything over 20 pence pieces in my dire skint state:o but have decided to start a mini (very mini:rotfl:) £2 savings tin and pop one £2 in there every week. I reckon I can afford to pot one. That will be a nice little bonus on pot/tin opening day:j

    Coo, if you do pot £2 a week that'll be over £100! Not bad at all!

    Sorry folks, haven't posted for a while (it's awkward on the 'phone) but I'm potting away.

    Wishing everyone a happy, healthy & potty New Year :D

    There were daffodils out in Kew Gardens yesterday! That was really lovely :)

    Cheers for now
