    Hi Mumzy, how are you doing? Hope you are feeling a little better and I'm glad to see you got time to pay us a visit. We're behaving, honest :)

    I'm not counting coins either, it'll be a surprise next December :)

    Just thought that I would check in as I have not been on for days. My money box is three quarters full already. I have emptied my purse again today and have put 20 coins in. I have had to put my paper mache making on hold for the mo, I just need to decide on what I am going to make then start on it as my balloon is ready with paper on it. All the animals look FAB.

    Is everyone looking forward to xmas?

    Hi Penguin83, I have added your name and given you number 135 for this challenge. It ends on 1st December 2008, when we have all to total up the contents. I'm just keeping an up to date list until Mumzi is well enough to return at resume control of this unruly mob LOL Welcome to the sealed pot challenge, hope you don't mind there are a couple of other penguins going around :)

    Catwoman - I am looking forward to Christmas, can't wait to find out the reaction from my mum when she sees her Cash Cow!! LOL
