    Sue-uu I'm sorry to hear about your retirement and health problems - MS is a nasty beast! Wishing your family health xx

    I filled up our coffee pot today so instead of throwing away the jar I've kept it and sellotaped the top to make my jar! Feeling really MSE lol xx

  • Hi I'm here. There was an odd £2 coin after my count yesterday so that's gone in the new tin.

    Sorry to read about yours and your DD's health issues Sue-UU ; of course your health is more important and I can onky imagine what a massive thing this is to look after aside from that.
