    Hi all. Still potting away, still on track despite hubby being in hospital for almost 3 weeks and taxis every day. He was in the local general hospital for 2 weeks after another heart attack. 

    The cardiology team decided he was staying there until a bed was available for him at the Northern General Hospital in Sheffield where the specialist team for his particular surgery were.

    An ambulance trip at midnight (not on blue lights but the only time he could be picked up) and the following afternoon was in theatre, then home the following day -he says he feels like a new man an certainly looks better than he has done for years. Hopefully we will get our trip on the West Highland Line that was cancelled last year due to strikes.Guess what my sealed pot savings are ear marked for!

    A very good afternoon SPCers! What a horrible day, especially for all those in Scotland, Wales and the North! For members in those areas, do please keep safe! A month's worth of rain in one or two days! 😯
    For all those who are poorly or low in spirits, take great care and get well soon. Hugs and best wishes from us all. ❤️

    Ooh München und Wien klingen beide so schön! 😯 both sound so beautiful in our words Vicky.
    I've seen The Sound of Music many times, just wonderful, if it weren't for weather like this I'd be up on those hills singing, well that's what I'd like to think anyway. 😂
    BTW you put money you'd potted last week and I forgot all about it. If memory serves me right it was roughly £52 right? 🤨

    Excellent LMD!! 👏 It's not long to go now so keep stashing it in!

    You too Hicksy, all declarations before or the 26th!!

    Another £10 LMD?! 😯

    Ooh brilliant Saver-upper!! Oh you're too kind. 😀

    Oooh your dear hubby Lucy! 😯 Still, he was lucky they were able to keep him in until a bed was found! 
    I'm so pleased he's had it done and feels so very much better!!😊 A bit expensive for you, but...! 
    I'm so chuffed for you both to have your SPC money to fund the trip for the West Highland Line!! 👏
    Don't forget to declare on or before the 25th!! 😀

    Have a lovely Wednesday and Thursday folks.

    Sue

    Yes, @Sue-UU that’s correct! About £52 or something like that. Still amazed! And I think we can sing wherever we like. 😀

    I’m currently on half term and I’ve just potted £9 as I haven’t had a coffee when I’ve been out and about, but waited until I got home. I will have a little treat, but it’s far too tempting and far too expensive if I get into that habit. 

    See you all next week for declaration day!
