    A very good morning, Potters! The start of a good week for everyone I hope, a wet one assured for most I'm afraid, especially those of you who are in the north of the country - though I promise you that we down south will be feeling so very [STRIKE]happy[/STRIKE] guilty about it, but you all know that. ;) Huge {{{Hugs}}} to all those in need of them, I do so hope you're soon feeling very much better.

    Excellent saving, Daisychain, and sounds as though you had the perfect evening. :grinheart

    I hope you had a lovely weekend, Vicky. Good potting too.

    Hello Sue-UU - thanks for the welcome back - good to be here! Hope all is well with you.
    My old laptop died last year, and my son got me a new-to-me reconditioned one. This was when I was in the process of moving/downsizing, and when I eventually got back on line I somehow forgot to access dear old MSE - how could I?!!!

    How could you indeed, Winchelsea! :eek: Seriously, I do understand as we can't always keep up with the norms of life when other and larger things take over. Good for your Son, at least you now have a window to the rest of the world now...including SPC! It's so lovely to be chatting to you again. :grinheart

    Good potting, Modesty, and such a lovely welcome.

    Don't forget you could be using a "Holding Pot", owlet, you know the one talked about in the very 1st post...that you would have read about?!!!! ;)

    On-line earning, wealthygirl??! Do tell us more. I'm so pleased you enjoyed the trip out to London to see the Christmas lights - as well as getting 5p!!! Thanks so much for your lovely words! :D

  • Hi All,

    Please can you add me to this challenge for this year - no target as I've no idea how much I could pot. Pots all ready with a few coppers in it.

    Good luck everyone.
