    Had the odd coin here and there, which I've added to my signature total but didn't bother posting about. Having a good week this week though, 1 coin yesterday, 3 today, and 1 more at work which I'll be able to get tomorrow (after finding 2 £1 coins in my jeans pocket tonight)!

    I've just looked up the achievement I posted for 2016 and am pleased to see I've surpassed this already (just £162 last year); I'm looking forward to seeing where I'll get to and whether I'll make it to the end of the year before filling my pot of dreams to capacity!

    Well done on surpassing last years total.

    I've potted 9 more since I last posted, bringing my total too £198. Need to get 1 more to get to the £200 mark.

    Hi chocoholic queen,
    Hope it won't be too long before you hit the £200 barrier.

    Hi Grumpyoldmoo,
    I can feel your frustration, I have the same problem. Mine are mostly plai too.
    Also, it has been ages since I last had a two pound coin. I even got my 87 year old uncle to turn his pockets out yesterday!

    Hi Gettingmyacttogether,
    Good to hear from you.
    Well done from collecting 11 coins. Yes, it is a saving. Every little one helps.

    I had 3 this week. I'm so skint I shoved them in my pot quick as I need a tin opener to get into it. One was a William Shakespeare one. Crown & Dagger. I looked on eBay but selling at £2.80 not really worth the effort so it too went in the pot.
