    I've added £90 to the pot today, I think I'm set to surpass last year's total by the time we get to October :)

    Another £22.50 from vinted sales added, plus a bit of shrapnel from the end of month clearout of my food shopping purse.
    My pot has a bit of weight to it, so I'm sure I've passed last years total already, which I'm chuffed about.

    I’ve added some loose change to my pot.  We have been camping for a couple of nights which was wet and very windy but we really enjoyed.  Off to see Mary Poppins at the theatre this afternoon with a family member.  My son and I have seen it before about 2.5 years ago and said we would definitely go again so we are 😀

    A very good afternoon this Thursday SPCers, I really hope you've enjoyed the Bank Holiday Weekend!
    To all of you who are poorly and low in spirits, I do hope you're very soon feeling so much better.
    For now though, here are very best wishes to get well soon, from us all here at SPC <3

    Hello Vicky! Thanks so very much indeed and don't worry T (hubby) and I are taking great care of me. It's still early days but we're today almost 3 weeks after the event now but, so all being well 3 - 5 weeks to go! 😊

    You've potted an amazing amount since Friday, plus you're lucky your lucky accident netted you £20 on top!! 😍👏👏
    I'm glad you made the most of the horrible weather. Take care care Vicky.

    Good heavens above LMD!! More to the pot!! 😱 😱 Little wonder your looking to surpass last year's total!!
    Keep it going and at this rate you'll be a millionairess a few years down the line!!! 

    Hi Siju and what some weather we're enduring! More to come this week, though towards the latter part of the week doesn't look so bad as it did at the end of last week.

    Very well done with your potting!

    A brilliant sum madlyn! Let's hope you're right with your thoughts about your pot Total being greater than last year 😀

    Another excellent sum LMD!!! So very much kinder to you. Fingers crossed it keeps up the same trend! 😀

    Hi BeyondDirect981, Well done with whatever you've got added to your pot, and I'm so pleased your assignments are finished!

    Very well done with your potted change, Hetty, it all adds up!
    Oh we used to love camping, and always took our elder grandchildren with us, they absolutely loved the trips. Our elder granddaughter, husband and 3 children do so now and really love it.

    £20 transferred from our account over to the SPC account.

    Sue    

    Enjoy a lovely THURSDAY with this glorious weather folks.

    Glad to hear your recovery is progressing well Sue,
    My auntie has had her cast replaced and is also doing well.The cast is due to be removed in 3 weeks. Her spirits are good as she realises it could have been so much worse. The bruising was terrible at first but has almost gone now. May things continue to improve for you as well.
    My potting still goes well. Pot is very heavy now and electronic potting is continuing as well.

    @Sue-UU - I'm pleased that your recovery is going okay. 

    @Hettyhound - I hope you had a fantastic time at Mary Poppins.  I absolutely loved it when I saw it.

    In true "me" style, after not potting for a while until the end of last week, another potting incident comes along.  This time a whole 32p - thanks to TopCashback.  Duly added to the electronic pot!

    Evening all, happy Friday.  £28.63 into the virtual Plum pot/ISA this week, plus a bit of interest.  

    Last Friday was my birthday so that was spent in a garden centre with my best friend Emma, Saturday DH and I went to our favourite restaurant for curry, and on Sunday Emma and her husband treated me to tea and Paul Heaton's gig at Bramall Lane football ground (I support the other Sheffield team) which was very lovely of them.  Now it's 2 weeks till my weekend in London to see Rhys Darby (eeek!!), preceded by my car's MOT and service/repairs - rubbish timing but I'm driving my new London friends to the seaside for the day after our second Rhys Darby gig here (as in I met them in London, but 2 of them are neighbours here in Sheffield, the other one is from Germany and we literally all arrived in London last August separately, stayed together all day and here we are nearly a year on).  So whilst I have every confidence that my car is fine, it seems sensible to get it seen to before rather than after!  I'm also trying a new garage, closer to home than our previous regular one that we've used for 25+ years - no issue with them, other than it's a 20+ mile round trip to drop cars off and pick up.  Our experience of using garages closer to home hasn't been great but the place DH bought his new car from uses the garage I'm going to, and it's a family business, so hopefully all will be well.
