    Hi
    Can I join please?

    Welcome to the thread K.Mack. Our leader Sue-UU will be along shortly to give you a number to put on your signature. Do take the time to read the first post and grab yourself a pot. :) Happy potting!
    A good life is when you assume nothing, do more, need less, smile often, dream big, laugh a lot, and realise how blessed you are.

  • Just popping by to say that my darling child emptied my purse into the pot... I estimate at least £10 (I know I had 4 x £2 coins in that purse). I must start hanging up my hand bag! He left me a 50p coin - I've donated it to his pot.... Goodness me I'm going to starve during maternity leave aren't I? 35 weeks tomorrow :)

    Thanks a million for my star Sue and I hope to be staying with the 'family' for the foreseeable future - I'd miss you all and your chatter gossip conversation :rotfl:

    I am also sorry, but I did have a little chuckle to myself...

    Just be glad its not the paper variety, I remember my niece having my purse when she was a toddler and her putting it all in the nicely run bath....

    I was thankful it was only a £5* and it wasn't the toilet,

    * I fished it out and swopped it at work.
    **Wouldn't be a problem now with our lovely springy notes

    my neighbours toddler emptied hers down the toilet..... eek.

    I'll be grateful for it next November I'm sure.

    Just bought beds (singles that stack to bunks) with this year's potting so I'm grateful for his cunning potting . although he hasn't asked visitors for money for my pot for a while :rotfl: .....

    £1.20 to the pot. Unfortunately I was supposed to be putting it aside for my food budget wallet, but I think I have a 'muscle memory' about putting money in the pot and did it without thinking. Oh well, not to worry, more for November 2018.
