  • Congratulations! That's wonderful news!

    On the challenge side of things...my money bags have disappeared :( I only have three! and lots of change to count before I can start my challenge properly. Most disappointing.

    Will temporaily find another pot 'til I have got some bags from the bank on Monday.

    Congratulations mumzy. I ended up with over £60 out of my pots before I started again. The other £8 was in bits so I couldn't change them up yet. I am going to be really disciplined this year, no dipping in to the pots.....

    I don't know if I'm organised enough for a regular weekly weigh-in for Phil, but I'll be updating his weight each time I update my signature. Phil's just small change as I'm being extra cash-conscious. I like to know mine's in the bank getting interest and nobody can toudh it who isn't supposed to touch it... or maybe I really am paranoid? :o
    I reserve the right not to spend.

  • Can I join too please. I came back from Barcelona with a big sealed money box (a Terramundi?) and have started to put my change into it. My first challenge!!!!! And congratulations Mumzy, it's lovely news.
