    Went to a wedding yesterday with free table wine and fizz, plus a few sneaky miniatures in my bag and other drinks bought for me, so brought home the £50 cash I took with me and it went in the pot today.

    Morning Everyone :)

    Well I'm back from Cornwall and struggling a bit to get back into the routine of work and stuff like that.....but I'll get there.... :) At least I don't have to go back on the Tube until tomorrow (Wednesday) so that's not so bad....and I have an Afternoon Trip out tomorrow afternoon with a Friend after I've Worked the morning so it's all good :D

    Cornwall was INCREDIBLE....I really needed the Break and I'm hoping to go back down in June if I can.....My Nephews and Nieces are growing up so fast and I love to see them and spend time with them as well as my Brother and his Wife....so what's not to like?? :T

    I managed to Pot 70p yesterday (I think that's what it was LoL :o).....and I'm pleased with that....I'm going to try and see if I can squirrel away £2.50 a week out of my Budget to pot, it may not sound like much but it will soon add up.... :cool: :cool: :cool:

    I'm sorry to hear that you've been ill Sue...I hope you're feeling MUCH better now.... :)

    *Hugs* to anyone that needs them....Chat to you all soon xXx :)

    Glad you had such a good holiday Helen, I've not been to Cornwall since I was a teen. I remember it as being beautiful and unspoilt. Dd3 and her fianc! went to fistral beach for a surfing weekend last year and loved it.

    Put about 45p of shrapnel in my tin over the weekend.

    Afternoon everyone. Just popping by to say I have potted £10 saved from the Baptisim budget :) most for a while.

    Never again will I have a first birthday and baptism within 4 days (especially as it involves family arriving from Oz and all over Britain).

    But hey my pot is very nearly full :)

    Hope you're all well.
