    Evening all


    Glad to hear the funeral went as well as and was well attended Sue. Sorry to hear about your DD and hope she's soon rebounding a bit. Wouldn't her medical notes at the Dr include any childhood/teen infections such as chickenpox ??


    Potted my weekly £10 today :j


    Hope you all have a lovely bank holiday weekend. My DH doesn't get bank holidays - gets days in lieu - so we won't be doing anything special this weekend

    Afternoooooooooooooooooooooon Potterssssssssssssssssss

    Where have I been?? :huh: I can see you all missed me desperately :D

    Life just getting in the bloomin way, DS is about to take his GCSE science's in 3 weeks :eek: and is nowhere near prepared so i've spent the last 2 weeks making him tests, explaining what he doesnt understand etc. I've had to completely relearn all my GCSE science these last 2 weeks, but fear not, I now know that a food cycle can only hold 5 levels and what a Heterotroph is! Things that will no doubt stand me in good stead in my twilight years :rotfl:

    Finally bought DD her first phone on friday, she has spent most of the weekend texting me where she is and various random questions as she's quite impressed with this new toy *rolls eyes* Still it means I can now allow her to roam out of our street and at £5 a month for 150 mins, 5000 texts and some data (plus the free phone!) I thought that was a bit of a bargain :D

    Well I have still been feeding my pots and they are both looking decidedly fat, DH went to the pub and brought me home 2 x £2 coins so I was smiley happy :D

    Right I am currently crocheting a ripple blanket whilst cooking dinner so I will have to love you and leave you all, and try not to be a stranger for so long next time!

    Haven't popped in here for a while but my SPC Savings Account is looking rather more healthy than the pot itself. It's had a slight interest rate increase which was a nice surprise. My pot has been glued back together as my dog hit it off of the side with his tail and it smashed. It has some sentimental value so I don't want to throw it away.

    I will soon have met my target which is good news as it'll be my clothes fund for next year, so the more the better.

    More often than not I'm using the pot money and paying the same (or more) into the account, but at least it is being saved one way or another which is an improvement on last year's attempt.
