  • Despite guile, charm & frank pleading, I have 5 more plain wholesome coins & no more pretties.
    I may resort to threats of baby photos on Facebook!
  • Potted another 5 plain coins yesterday. Swapped at work for the last £10  note in my purse before payday.

    Banked £400 (£200 of which has gone to the wildlife centre already, the other £200 is going towards funding the 2022 calendars for the centre I get made for them to sell to raise funds)

    £48 in my pot.

    £448 saved so far. Don't think I will make the £500 by end of october as planned but probably before the end of the year all being well.

    As I have already achieved my target, for the rest of the year, I am only going collect 'pretty picture' coins. Not. Standing on the heads of giants (plain) coins. Target for the end of the year - 10 coins.
