    Well Sue-UU you've amazed me with your weather knowledge. Who knew you could do online courses? Well done to you 👏 such an interesting subject too. Yes, the snow has arrived and we have a fair coverage this morning and it's still snowing. A day for curling up with a book in front of the fire, I think.  For those who have to venture out, take care and wrap up warm! 

    A couple of pounds in the pot today 😊

    Ah, sorry to hear about your loss and in such sad circumstances. My thoughts are with you and T. 

    Our last dog (the food hoover) passed away on Easter Monday last year having collapsed on a walk. She is still much missed by us all. So important to keep talking about our four-legged family members. 

    In potting news, another £4 or so has become payable from TopCashback!

    Wow Sue that’s some great weather knowledge you have there. Us Brits are of course good at talking about the weather but you are certainly next level!

    Hi all SPCers! I hope you've all had a good week and as much snow as you wanted or not.
    For all those who are poorly or down in the spirits, we hope you're all feeling better soon. Love and hugs from us all. ♥️

    It sounds as though Siju did best with snow out of the 3 of us then, Flowers. 🙄 Unfair. We had a lovely blanket of snow during the night, so beautiful... I'm glad DH & I stood and watched it together as just after we got up.. it started raining, after we'd had lunch ...it had all gone!! 😢 
    Well done with your £5er potted!!?

    In a sense I amazed myself, Siju, I could even have gone to Exeter Uni!!! 😀 Too long in the tooth for going any further, but it was amazing. 🤩 There were quite a few different courses at the time, no idea now, but there are plenty of courses of all sorts online, if ever you fancy learning any topic, just tap 'online courses in????' and you'll find several.
    You had a really good amount of snow, more a day or so later too no doubt?! I just hope everyone's stayed safe!! 
    Good for you in potting another couple of pounds!

    Thanks so very much Vicky. So very sorry to hear about your dear dog, what a shock for you all! The same happened to our Tess, another Lab of many years ago, but she howled then collapsed and died after we arrived home, bless her, possibly a heart attack. She was another sweetheart too. Totally agree with keeping talking about them, little stories often come up about for whatever reason, much like humans. 😍
    Well done on the £4 potted!

    Ah bless you, Ant, very kind of you indeed. It was a brilliant challenge which I'm so thrilled I took on.
    Good for you with £3 potted!

    NO SNOW ❄️❄️🌨️ Flowers?! Still, you might well be happy about that. 😊
    Very good potting! 

    Enjoy a really lovely weekend everyone. Keep VERY warm 

    Sue

    Hello, I've potted £30 from my wages and some pennies along the way.  My son was 10 on Friday and it snowed for his birthday!  Sadly for him his school wasn't closed as it wasn't bad enough and was all gone by lunchtime.  Been on a walk this afternoon and it felt really mild; I don't think it knows what to do.
