    Hello everyone


    We are getting there! Our totals are very healthy and growing into decent amount of cash - well done to us all!


    I continue to be absent for much of the time due to family commitments but when I do get the chance to catch up, I'm amazed at how well we are all doing so keep up the good work and you won't be disappointed.


    I have transferred all of my old £ coins into new ones now, we did this in stages, I stopped adding any old pounds and just concentrated on new ones. The ones already in my tin were taken to the bank and swapped:D


    All totals updated where requested;)


    Take care all
