I managed to add £5.33 to my sealed pot today, so pleased to be finally be able to put something away.

Hello everyone, it’s been a glorious sunny day here in Somerset. Mowed Mum’s lawn, moved her new wardrobe flatpacks from downstairs to upstairs, had a nice coffee whilst out, and potted a few more pounds.
Im sure it’s not just me who thought today was Saturday, or was it Wednesday?! I hope everyone gets to enjoy the extra Bank Holidays - appreciate some might have to work. My teenager has to work unfortunately, so it was an early rise to drop her at work.
keep potting what you can when you can, and stay safe27/5/17 Mort 64705 BTs 1904031/12/17 Mort 59815 BT 1673007/04/20 Mort 49208 BT 1572128/07/20 Mort 47387 BT 1263414/11/20 Mort 45905 BT 10134 20/05/21 Mort 42335 BT 686811/08/22 Mort 32050 BT 2915Sealed Pot Challenge 16 Number 54 -
