No. 48
Declaring £417.13 Considering our goal was £300 I think we did really well as we've moved house so not been able to pot properly for a couple of months.
Thank you to Sue for all your hard work again this year :T I will really try harder to post more.
Looking forward to seeing some great totals from everyone.

*Please pop your number on your sig, it really helps me.
I can so remember those terrible times you had, Emily, but we here were only outsiders briefly looking in, but as you say, living with it every day, as you had to, has to be a totally different matter.
I liken debt to trying to lose weight: you don’t really notice putting on weight until it hits you, then, as you’ve said with debt, it must seem a lifetime in getting it off!!
I’m not speaking from personal experience, but from what I’ve seen a relative go through, but like you, slowly and surely she’s getting there!
What right would anyone have to judge you, Emily, and why should they wish to? It certainly doesn’t help the person with the problems after all.
To us all you are quite simply Emily, and we wouldn’t want to be without you! Bless you Emily and thoroughly enjoy your Christmas! :kisses3:
By golly Curly, you’ve done incredibly well especially as you’ve moved house too! You must have worked hard at potting the rest of the time to achieve such an amount - and - go so high above your Target!!!!! Many congratulations Curly you’ve so much to be proud of!!!!!!:j:T:j Thanks a lot but others also chip in which is a huge help!
Hello TMD and congratulations to you on achieving a really great amount!!!!!!! :dance::T:dance: I'm so happy for you as I realise just how much that amount means to you! Be happy and be so very proud of yourself!!!!
