Thank you for your kind words everyone and just to set the record straight, DH did set up the garden pump in the bathroom! We don't have many neighbours but the few we do have I'm sure would not want to see us leaping around the garden in our birthday suits
So happy to hear T is not in so much pain Sue-UU, it must feel so liberating for him
A much less stressful weekend with some gorgeous spring sunshine has made all our troubles fall away. Another £5.71 in the pot this week. Enjoy the rest of the week fellow Potters and keep pottingSPC 16 - #09 Totals: 2014 - £264.51 2015 - £207.50 2016 - £396.79 2017 - £369.49 2018 - £484.24 2019 - £309.90 2020 -£282.06 2021- £1839.89 2022 -£1627.834 -
Hi Potters!
I hope everyone had a really beautiful weekend and has a lovely Monday with a good week ahead.
For those who are poorly in any way, I really hope you'll soon be feeling a great deal better and back here with us.Excellent that your £10 is now potted LMD!! Plus - £27.13 in with it, great news!!! 🤩Good potting, Hummingbird!! It sounds as though our weather is much the same as yours, we've had 3 lovely days on the trot, yes with very chilly winds, but no rain... until tomorrow. An iffy week by the sound of it. 🙄Hi Vicky,Yes, we've dried up a lot over the last 3 days, it's been lovely and sunny. T & I have been for some beautiful walks, but the rain is back tomorrow, Monday.So you're in the Rutland area, though all I know about that is of the bird show! I wonder if the Shropshire and Yorkshire areas are drying up, I sincerely hope so poor folk. 😟Brilliant potting Vicky!!! 🤗That puts a whole different light on things, Siju! ☺️ Though it did make us all grin that day, a lot to be said for that, especially in present times.Thanks for your words re T, it honestly has given him a whole new lease of life not to always have a continuous pain, even worse that terrible pain he's suffered from if he's done just a little. Things are entirely different now, I just wish the other Drs could have thought more deeply into pain relief. 🙄Wasn't the weekend so beautiful, just 1 day that was quite chilly, but the sun was still here!Have a lovely week Siju.Sorry not to have been here over the weekend, but we've been making the most of the beautiful sunshine and going for some lovely walks, superb. 🤩God Bless all those in Ukraine,but their bravery is amazing!
Enjoy Monday folks, the week ahead too. Good healthand save as well as you're able.Save in whichever way is best with you.Sue xxNB folks: The opening date for this year is 27th October 2022

little_sweetie said:Westie, I just opened a flex regular saver account with Nati*nwide as they are paying 2.5% from this month. It might be worth investigating whether it would work for you.
£7.52 potted from another small sale this weekend. It all adds up 👍🙂

I know this is 2 posts in a row, but I used actual real-life money when I went out last night and potted the £2 in change I brought home.

Hi Potters!For those who are poorly in any way, I really hope you'll soon be feeling a great deal better and back here with us.
I hope everyone had a good Wednesday.
Brilliant potting Jade, and fantastic news and congratulations that the job is yours!!!! 😊 🥳All the very best to you, Westie!!!Very well done, LMD, you're forgiven for the 2 in a row posting!!! 😉Great potting Lost!!! I understand what you mean about gradually slipping into a new month without realising it, but with so much going on in the world it's hardly any wonder really. I think we'll all remember when April comes along though somehow! 😒I've transferred £15 to the SPC account, £5 less than normal, but the £5er less will go part way towards rises in electricity, petrol and extra on the ever increasing shopping bill. 😒 Best to be prepared than not.Enjoy a good Thursday folks. Good health to alland save as well as you're able.Save in whichever way is best with you.Sue xxNB folks: The opening date for this year is 27th October 2022
