    Evening Sparky, how goes it? Whens the big Big Apple adventure? Soon isn't it? lol.

    Hiya Everyone.
    My computer at home is playing up, and won't let me post on the thread, it will let me press the thanks button, but won't let me do anything else :mad:

    Everything is fine in the South end of our fair city, a bit windy on the bike, but I got there in the end. 7 weeks today until we go to the Big Apple, but we're not counting lol. Really looking forward to it. How is Mrs S now? better I hope, and of course your good self in fine health I hope.

    DW is sragging me to Liverpool1 tomorrow to "have a look around", I can feel a strain on my wallet already lol.

    All newbies
    Welcome to the [strike]Asylum[/strike], forum, that is "Sealed Pot Challenge". Looking forward to starting again on the 2nd of December, my goal will be to double whatever I had this year :eek:. Don't worry you don't have to be mad to be here, but it certainly helps.

    Be good everyone and keep filling those pots

    At a girl Surbabe! I see you do know how to put a link on after all!!! Well done and thanks for that as they're brilliant and good to look at (thanks Nyk!). Good luck with making your ...whichever it turns out to be. Take care of yourself though and I hope you can soon get that chest fully better!

    <<<<<<<<<"He can't help it - he gets very confused !!!!!!!!!!!!!!">>>>>>>

    Who? Pete or Stunty? :rotfl:I could hazard a guess, but hadn't better!!! ;)
    Please can I join in next year? I have been sort of doing this challenge this year unofficially but would love a number next year!

    Welcome to the thread wrinkled english rose and Jo3y83!!! It's great to have you here and to see you've already joined in the fun WER. Please, both of you, come on to the new thread on December 2nd or as soon as you can and I'll be able to give you both a number straight away, but I'm unable to yet as I'm not running this thread and can't access the numbers on Page 1. You're both so very welcome though, and it really is a case of all the more the merrier! :D

    Thanks a lot sparky, I'll appreciate that very much indeed. If ever I call a person Chris, you'll know I'm referring to you, though don't ask why as I haven't a clue!!:o I've no idea what you mean about my poor hubby ....though I've got another 2 x £1 coins to put in the pot!!!!! :confused: :rotfl: Good luck with your PC, the bike too! Go carefully and be good to DW on the shopping trip your're looking forward to!!!!!:j

    "Welcome to the family!" A good one Stunty as that's just what it feels like. :D

    Didn't mean to not include you on one of the posts above HWGA, a bit too much on my mind. It was good to hear of you're lemonade bottle being put to great use, I guess it will go off with a "POP" on the 1st December!! Are you going to reuse it or splash out on another??!! :rolleyes:

    Happy penny/pound hunting all.

    Hiya sue,

    I'm using four at the mo, one for "£2 challenge," one for "20p challenge," one for "sealed pot challenge" and one for "off the road challenge"
    So I don't think the total for each is going to be that massive, and I'm not sure what to do with it all yet, pay it off the mortgage, treat myself to something, stick it in the ol isa, use it for christmas food/presses? What do the peeps on here think, what's your best idea/what are you all doing,
    Yeay, lets have a quiz, what should HWGA do with all that lovely dosh:rotfl:
