    Very sad news Lisa, I think I'd be consoling myself with thoughts of "well, perhaps it just wasn't meant to be" and - when you're ready - try again as I see you intend doing.

    All best wishes.

    Sue

    A warm welcome to you moneypooh.

    OK, I've raided purses, pots, wallets and the sofa! Added £5.06 to the pot - yay!.
    It's quite exciting, as we have no idea what's in it.

    When are we counting it??

    Hiya!

    Unfortunatly I had a miscarriage on the weekend. :( We shall try again in a few months though!

    Am still putting in my pot. Tdied out the drawer the other day & found a money bag with £8 of £2 coins in. SO they went straight in the pot. Can't believe I have been doing this for nearly 6 months!

    Evening both. I'm not spending at all apart from the change after one shop per week, so unless we're desperate for something down the village shop - NO pennies for me!

    It is quiet here lately Molly....maybe it's us!!!:eek:
