    Hi all

    I haven't read through all the thread (far too much to catch up on) I am still shovelling money into my pot, in fact one is full now, I need to buy another...

    No idea how much is in it as it is one of those you open with a can opener!!!

    Can't wait to open it at the end of this year.

    ps dont you have the internet at home?

    Yes we have internet at home, but it keeps crashing on us or the screen freezes up, always at important times or just as you finish an online form, then you have to restart the connection & refill the online form, it's such fun (not) lol

    Evening everyone.
    congratulations Mumzy on geting the school of your choice.Living in a small village our schools are undersubscribed so i've never been in the position of having my fingers crossed.The schools aren't bad either so don't have too many worries :)
    lost my way but now I'm back ! roll on 2013

    Mumzy - congrats on your son getting into the school you wanted :)

    I don't post on here a lot (or anywhere really (too shy) :) ), but I'm so excited. If it wasn't for this thread and the Live on £4000 thread, I would not be going away for a few days holiday tomorrow!! I've used some unexpected (unbudgeted) money to pay for a coach tour to Scotland for 5 days, and my spending money is coming from the £2 coins that I've been saving in a separate pot to my Sealed Challenge (which in itself is almost full - will need to find new pot soon). So this morning I released £80 in £2 coins back into the wild via the building society and now have 8 crisp shiney new £10 notes to spend. Wah hay :)

    Thanks everyone for the inspirational posts and for the sense of community that comes through in the posts - I feel as if I belong even though I am the (very) distant relative that you only see on high days and holidays.

    Take care all
