    What a great find @Lost2
    Who doesn’t love unexpectedly finding money in their coat pocket.
    I picked up another 5p of roadkill yesterday. People cleared have money to throw away round here  :)

    Good evening everyone,

    I've just been doing some banking and shifting around of money, so I've been able to pot £8.43.  Feeling quite virtuous!  Pay day is soon, so hopefully I can sweep some more soon...

    Evening all :)

    I need another tin! I was tempted to breakk into my 'silver only' one a couple of weeks back. I wanted to knock the payments down on my weekly Council Tax direct debits for 2023. I did it just in time too. The new bill came through today and the weekly amount is £14 - the same I paid on last years funnily enough. I'll pick up a new tin on Saturday :)

    Probate was finally granted to oversee my Mother's estate, but Barclays bank are making us wait nearly 3 weeks before we can go in and speak to someone about paying all the bills and dividing up the estate between benificiaries.

    My nephew has started the process of getting a mortgage to buy Mums house off me (which I can't keep/don't want) and draft contracts have been drawn up too apparently. I've no idea how hong all this house selling takes. I still can't wait to get it all over.

    I hope everyone else is okay?

    later :)
    James

    Apologies for being AWOL! I have been potting in the background and the total is looking very healthy already. I was sorting laundry this morning and found a £2 coin so that has been added to the pot.

    £8 scratch card winnings and 50p in change. Why do self service tills give you 10p’s in change instead of a 50p coin? That’s my grumble for the day 😂

    I haven't had a lot of change through my hands lately, but I have just potted £1.52 ( a £1 coin from my partner, and a 2p, and 50p piece, both roadkill.)

    Good morning everyone,

    Another bit of potting over the last few days as it has been payday. A sweep across my accounts and into the pot. Some into the holding pot for “just in case”.
