Sealed Pot Challenge ~ 12

LLM2018 · 4 November 2018 at 10:57AM

Hi. Can I join this challenge please?

I have my pot ready and have put a few coins in already. I won't be adding it up when I pot it as I want it to be a surprise at next year's opening.

Hello potters,

Thank you for such a warm welcome sue & Vicky. I do have a bit of a choccy addiction, but I'm trying to be good as have lost 1st 1lb and would like to lose more.

I still need to find a pot, but think I'll use the f&rt tin I bought hubby as a joke Christmas present few years ago 😆

I do use Quidco a lot and take surveys on prolific, so will add that money too. Both of these normally get added to PayPal and used for the kids school dinners. It'll be nice to keep them separate and for something nice! I Will check my balances and see if I can withdraw anything to get the pot started. I'm a definite add the total up as I go kinda of girl. I can't wait to get started now.

Hello all SPCers! It might be a wet day, but I hope it can still be an enjoyable one for you all.
For those of you who aren't well in any way, I hope you're soon feeling a whole lot better very soon! For now, here's love and {{{{hugs}}}} from us all especially to YOU!! :grinheart

It all happened a couple of years ago, Westie, when you wrote, over a few posts, about pedantic errors you thought I'd made, which as you now know are always put right asap after the first day. I told you then to leave it to me.

Right now I would sooner forget it all, and I would thank you to do the same or PM me if ever you notice anything wrong in future, although I will do my darndest for there never to be any more.

You're most welcome, Chutney, and it's lovely to see you christen the new thread with your first of many pottings!

Very well said about the favourite food and the coins to Choccygirl123, Vicky!! We need to have things in order, especially where the C word comes into it!! :rotfl:

I see you've been reading through the 1st post well, Choccygirl, and getting to know about things you can add to your Pot, well done you! Congratulations on your weight loss, it's never easy when you have a real liking for something, but you succeeded, fantastic!!!! :T

It's good to see you back with us, Dragon Lily! What you've done with your craft room just goes to show how handy our potting can be.

Enjoy a lovely Sunday, everyone.

Sue

Opening date for SPC 12 will be 31st October 2019

Anyone wishing to join us, it's NEVER too late, so please just ask, you'll be made very welcome.

Its forgotten and I won't be correct anything again, sorry I thought I was helping, I suppose I should have PM'd you instead but can't change the past.
Sorry and I wont mention or point anything out again.

In potting news I have bagged up my coins and dropped the first £1 into the now empty pot to start again.
