    Another £2 coin added this week and two £1 coins that I found on the floor when paying for my parking at the weekend.

    Nice! If I find any road kill it's usually coppers... :D

    I've got to admit I was surprised at my find.
    No one was around either so it had been there a while.

    Hello SPCers! I hope you've had a good week and weekend as well as the last couple of days.
    To all those of you who are poorly or low in any way, take very great care and get well soon. Very best wishes from us all here on SPC <3

    Hi Vicky, It's not that long ago since you were here, time flies by mind.
    It's good to hear your potting has continued,  TopCashBack too.
    I'm sure you'll be more cautious with your potting for the next couple of months until your hours change again.

    I knew someone had finished their studies a while ago BeyondDirect981, also that someone was getting married, but that was a while ago and couldn't recall who it was. Many congratulations on graduating! 🥂🍾 Ah, so it was you who is getting married in October, and many congratulations to you cousin on her/his marriage!!! 🥂🍾
    Re the encouragement, you're most welcome, all I'd suggest is that you come back to the thread more often to get more encouragement from us all. 
    Take care 

    It was lovely thanks Siju, though very brown and the heather was very dark and almost scarce, all due to lack of rain sadly.
    I'm not a bit surprised that your DGC will all enjoy really wonderful times with yourself and your DH.
    I'm sure your DGD had a wonderful time and that granny and granddad (or whichever they refer to you both as) had a really lovely time with her!

    I hope the village show went well last for you all last week.
    I hope you thoroughly enjoyed yourselves with your DGD, she too!
    Very well done with another £5 potted! 😀

    Another £36 potted LMD, brilliant work! All the very best to your hubby and yourself in his continuing recovery!! ❤️

    Fantastic work Jakes-mum for your £200 taken out for your flights to Florida for next year! I'm pleased you've added it to your siggy.

    Brilliant finds madlyn, plus the £2!! All safely potted. 😀

    Likewise LMD 😩 Still eventually coins become pounds

    £20 transferred from our account to SPC account!!

    We had a great time at the show last week, thank you 😊 Barnaby was very pleased to win 2nd place for his snail made out of play dough. After a little wobble on the 1st night, Alba was so happy at Nanna and Grampa's house she didn't want to go home 💕 Nanna and Grampa were absolutely shattered though 🤣🤣 
    Popping another fiver in the pot this week. Have a lovely weekend 😍

    Hi Potters! I hope you've had a good week and weekend as well as the last couple of days.
    To all those of you who are poorly or low in any way, take very great care and get well soon. Very best wishes from us all here on SPC 3

    I'm so pleased you enjoyed yourselves at the show last week Siju. Excellent for Barnaby to have got 2nd place with his snail! 👏👏 Clever little boy. I'm delighted Alba (what a lovely name and also means Scotland) so enjoyed herself with Nanna and Grampa even if she tired you both out as a result. 😀😂 
    Another £5er in the pot, brilliant!!

    It definitely seems that way Ant, look out when it's your time! 😂

    We spent most of this morning watching elder grandson (7) playing football, although I'm very surprised they don't play cricket, possibly as his dad's their coach! I love cricket far better.

    I hope you all enjoy the rest of a gorgeous Sunday folks!

    And I'm back from Edinburgh!  Man it was insanely busy; the Fringe, the Tattoo and Oasis gigs, what a combo!!

    BUT.... we met Rhys Darby and had our photo taken with him :smiley: so I'm a very happy bunny.  To be fair we saw him around and about loads at the different venues, but yes achievement unlocked.  And he was lovely.

    I daren't look at my credit card bill :neutral: but we had a fabulous time and conveniently a balance transfer offer has just landed in my inbox.

    Sounds like a fab trip! I'd love to go to the Fringe one year, it's on my bucket list :) 


    I've stuffed £17 into the pot today
