I think he & his partner were @siju. He's a plasterer by trade and he sent me a video with before & after changes, it doesn't look like the same house, a toilet now downstairs, a bedroom split into two. As long as they are happy together & I'm sure they will pass the house onto the next generation

It's a lot of you've not been saving a lot before Makingaboro2, so be very proud of yourself!!Aha another 46p too! Slow and steady for sure. 🥰Didn't James do well for his nephew Siju!Wasn't Wednesday a lovely day, 2 that makes 2 in a week, so 2 in a week. Tomorrow is showers but better in the afternoon.🤞 Sunday hmm☔⛈️ speechless 😶 😮💨Brilliant potting! 😊What an excellent trade for your nephew to be in, James! It'll be good for you to see the before and after videos. Such a shame your mum didn't have a toilet downstairs, it would have been so much easier for your mum to have had 1 downstairs with her copd unless she had a stairlift of course. Still, at least she's free from it now, bless her.Their certainly cracking on with it with the bedroom split too. I'm sure they'll be very happy together in it now.Another good amount in your pot LMD!!Have a really super weekend folks!Sue,The end date for SPC is on the 24th October 2024-----------------------but no later, please!Anyone wishing to join us, please just ask and you'll be made very welcome

I’ve been dropping a few more coins into my pot.
It’s good to see your mum’s house being put to loving good use @rancid-a but of course a little bittersweet too.
The place will never look the way it did but you will always have your memories.27/5/17 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 53 -

Hi all, hope you're as well as you can be. Still potting away but not as much as I would like DD1 is in hospital with a suspected heart attack, What a family - just get one well and another goes down!! I'm not very mobile so it's taxis when no one offers (won't ask) to take me and that's around £25 per visit. Hope she appreciates this!!!!!Sealed Pot Challenge member 28
