    Evening all, thanks for the back up Sparky, much appreciated! A few pennies in Sgt Save for me this evening.

    Hiya Stunty,
    How the devil are you? will PM you later about another matter! We fella's have to stick together or the girlies will bully us lol. Some sponge threw a can out his car window at me last night when I was cycling home :mad: , the fool was going too fast in the opposite direction for me to get his licence plate number, what a plonker! Off for a spot of dinner now, catch you later

  • Pity you didnt get the licence plate Sparky, I'd have done him for you for littering..... Am off out for a few hours to see the new James Bond film. Yay! Will catch you all later, and will look forward to your PM Sparky. We chaps have to bond and stick together!

    Hi all I joined this thread last January and had a healthy pot which I added to at every opportunity. Unfortunately I needed to open the pot a few months ago and add to the bank we had saved for a fiat 500 and were a little short. Fortunately we managed it with the help of the money I had saved for the kids (will put back when I can) and the £300 + from my sealed pot so even though I didn't go the distance it was a useful exercise and it was very handy to have that extra bit of money there to fall back on. I think I will start another pot soon. Thanks for the inspiration.

    Got to take DW to see James Bond, been promising since last Friday that I would, but were both on opposite shifts at the mo so its a bit hard to find the time to go, might try Sunday night

    Evening all,
    Not much gone into the pot this week, I'm afraid.
    Had a funny turn in HMV today and very nearly parted with £50.00!! But then I thought of what you lot would say, turned round and walked out the shop. Phew!! Mustn't go in there again.

    Well done oopalah,
    You resisted the urge to splurge your hard earned, good for you on walking out of HMV

    Thanks Sparky. It was a close thing!
    I did spend money today, but it was only £10 and it was for a Christmas pressie, so that's OK.

  • Hi all, we are new to MSE and would really like to join this challenge.

    I reckon £200 is a good target to start with.

    Cheers Chris & Em.
