Potted £4 on Monday, £2 yesterday and husband gave me £1 today to add to the pot! It's been a successful week all round

Note to self: must keep on top of the potting game!

Evening all and a warm welcome to the new peoples and returners :hello:


Been very grotty here this week, even thunder last night, and enough rain to float a boat - if I had one :rotfl:


Potted a lovely tenner in the pot for this week :j


Hope you all have a lovely weekend

Ahh I would but I need him to drive me to the airport and i'm not allowed to travel by myself with all my medical stuff . . . pfft he has no choice anyway, I book all the holidays so he'll go where I tell him :rotfl:

Talking of medical stuff, went to my appt and the lady confirmed what I already knew, that my knee pain is nowt to do with lack of movement and all to do with my condition, my doc should never have referred me to a physio and I am NOT to do any exercises as it'll just make everything worse!!

I am not a happy bunny as I was done out of my meal out :eek: DS's xbox was turning up to day and they picked right in the middle of the day to deliver it . . . so no lunch for me, but DH has been told he's taking me tomorrow night for dinner with the kids!

Now Sue, you know you'd be mighty lonely if I wasn't here telling you all my life story! I'm like a one woman soap opera (with better acting and more interesting storylines )

DH is currently watching Lara Croft's bum and is blissfully happy though he did manage to get himself stuck by falling off a cliff in the first 30 seconds . . . this is normally when I hear 'jakesmummmmmmmmmm i'm stuckkkkkkk, come help meeeeeee' and I struggle with the internal battle that is a) go help and show him up and then rub it in that i'm better than him, or b) don't help and sit laughing at him while he swears at lara for not doing what he wants her to do :rotfl:

Anyway, to keep Sue happy . . . 94p in the pot today after a post office trip

EDIT: Oooo forgot to say, with all this freezing gales, we had SNOW!! we never have snow! Everyone else in the country has to be nearly buried in the stuff for us to even get a sniff of the stuff, but we def had snow, the school even sent out their weather email!

Lol at Lara's cliff fall, I did exactly the same thing when I started playing ;-)

Potting-wise,when I get off this very deep,comfortable sofa,I will be potting £4.88,the change from buying ingredients for tea tonight.

Best laid plans 'n' all o' that.What actually happened was,I wasn't quick enough to pot last night.The coins were sitting on the kitchen bench this morning when 4 kids each needed a £1 coin for Children in Need dress-up day at school .

In other news today,the tooth fairy forgot to visit my 6yo :eek:.I think that she was was so busy sewing bits for the Children in Need dressing up day,she forgot to do her rounds :rotfl:.(6yo had actually asked for the TF to write back-I told her maybe the TF had forgotten to bring a pen,so has to come back another night.)
Is it bad that this is the SECOND time in 13 years that TF has forgotten to visit one of my kids .

Potting news....potting news....must think of something.Well,I could pot the 88p that wasn't purloined this morning.Might also add the 11p change I got from buying the kids their after-school-on-Friday treat.

You've made a great start, cybertortoise, you'll soon be addicted like the rest of us.

It sounds a perfect weekend to me, Kerry, I bet you'll thoroughly enjoy the play with many a laugh too going by the TV version. Good luck with the cash finding!

Ok beccah, you're Target's updated, all the best with it.

Oh my word, lexbubbles, it sounds really nasty with you, just as I'd thought, and what a walk to get your Ebay stuff sorted!! :eek: Still, I see you found solace at Gr!ggs!

Im out the starting block

Excellent potting, 12 month challenge, you're well away now! BTW. Your name is very apt for SPC.

A lovely lot potted today, 32b3, well done for sure.

Be careful of jesting, Lynne, you know what they say about that! You've a LOT more to come over the weekend too, be sure to take care or.....get that boat! :rotfl: Seriously though - beware! Great work with the £10er! You have a lovely weekend also.

...and about time too with the talk of cash, jakes-mum! Of all the things you natter on about - you had SNOW today??!! :eek: Good Heavens, but...if it's going to happen at an odd time at all, you can bet it'll be wherever you are!!!! :rotfl:Have a really lovely meal tomorrow, knowing you your DH will be made to pay big time! :rotfl:
What's this then, Westie, chatting and no mention of money..tut tut, you'll be as bad as er above soon!

Ahh....it almost looked as though you were forgetting to talk potting there, Saver-upper, as if! You FORGOT the tooth fairy....and now we hear you did so TWICE????????! :eek: Your poor little treasure will be remembering this years from now...when she's doing the very same!! :rotfl: Like Mother, like......!

Whatever you do over the next couple of days, Potters, have a GREAT WEEKEND, but TAKE CARE!! :dance:

Thank you SueUU for my gold star, I have proudly added it to my others


What horrendous news I have woken up to this morning with the incidents in Paris


I have just taken a look at my previous SPC totals and 2010 was my best year saving £1471, have no idea why that was but lets see if I can beat that this year


Over the years I've been doing this (only missed the first year ) I have saved the grand total of £5549.35 :j
