Evening all
2 pots for me over the weekend. If I have a pound coin in my purse I move it to the back of my purse. After a few days if I haven't spent it, I pot it.
Twice I've played this little game this week. (little things please little minds)

Such a lot of fun being had on here since I last popped in:j. Lots of birthday celebrations to read about and others that people are looking forward to:beer:
Well done on the brilliant weight-loss, Helen:T
Have potted my weekly £2 coin in it's own piggy and a slack handful of shrapnel in the sealed bucket. I think I was being a tad ambitious in searching for something as big as that but at least I can hear coins dropping on coins now, not just them bouncing off the plastic bottom:j
Another one here who loves those pants:rotfl:. What a talented girl you are:T
Have a great week, all:beer:

Well I'm pleased because Thursday it's my Birthday and I'm getting very very spoiled!! A lovely close Friend is taking me out on Thursday for Lunch....then I'm going out on Friday night with some Friends from College and then I'm getting taken out for a Meal with my Family on Sunday Evening...So I am feeling VERY lucky, very grateful and a little bit excited
I think I Potted about 65p yesterday morning but was so frantic with Work over the Weekend that I didn't get the chance to Post yesterday....
I'm not sure if I said anything but I think it's worth saying again I have now lost 2 stones and 1 pound....I'm aiming for just over 5 stones in total by the end of the Summer....so I'm nearly halfway there already
Happy Birthday to Lynne and Miss Lily....I hope you BOTH had wonderful Days and Celebrations...
Speak to you all soon xXx
Happy Birthday to you too DreamerHelen and well done on your weight loss. I'm also on a weight loss journey but need to get motivated again after Christmas.
