£6 potted for this week,

Timing of this will be pretty much perfect as we're going to London at end of November to watch the Masters tennis so this should cover some of our expenses by the time it comes to empty the pot. Hope everyone is having a nice weekend.
Really looking forward to my Auntie and Uncle's joint 90th birthday party tonight. Love them to bits and looking forward to seeing the family at a nice event rather than at the usual family meetup at funerals, which is the only other time we all seem to manage to get together.

You off the the ATP's? AntoMac?

Actually it's the Champions Tennis at the Albert Hall - would help if I got the name right. We usually do the ATP Finals but fancied a change this year.
My family is small compared to your's Westie in that my Uncle is one of 'only' 6 - Sadly he is now the last of the 6 as we lost his oldest brother this year at nearly 96. There will still be plenty of us there though and I'm really looking forward to it - some cousins travelling over 500 miles to join us.

GREAT-GRANNY is in the room!!

Hi all, just to announce the birth of my second great grandchild, a boy named Oliver! As you can tell, I am ridiculously excited! :j He was 6lb 8 oz and so dinky!My family has grown from 4 dc's to 9 dgc's and 2 dggc, with their partners it makes for expensive b'days and x time.

I couldn't manage any of this without my sealed pot....Sue-uu and all on this thread, thank you. :A

Rosie and I took part in a Tudor event at Berkeley castle at the end of may, with the Deerhound club, most of the owners were in Tudor costume leading their hounds [costume for me next year!] We followed a scottish piper into the courtyard and later followed him out to a field where there was some racing.
There were about 24 deerhounds in procession, a beautiful sight.
Needless to say , Rosie, my hound, decided to roll in fox p*o and I drove home with all the windows open,about 20 miles!! :eek:

Yes, I'm still feeding my pot,and give it a surreptitious shake every now and then....exciting!
Love to all, keep potting,
Caz

Congratulations Grandmasam! Lovely little babies, I love them but I couldn't eat a whole one lol.

A bit more potting done this weekend. Bought DS a paddling pool a couple of weeks ago so I didn't feel guilty about potting the cash for a couple of his toys that I sold!

I counted up last night that I have only got £35.61 to pot until I have completed the first penny savings challenge! Then I will be starting on round 2. Doubt I'll manage to complete it before opening date but I will give it a go!
