    Good to see so much saving from our Potters 👏 I potted my usual fiver and some change this week.

    First time I've tried to post on the new style forum......so far so good! I think you just need to highlight the text @Sue-UU and you can then select bold etc

    1. Oh very well done Dizzycap! You're definitely in for a lovely surprise come October. 🤗
      Well done in convincing your friend that SPC is a great way to save, I doubt she'll regret it if she sticks at it and especially if she joins us crack pots at SPC. 
    2. 52p via TCB site I a lot better than nowt for sure Vicky! Now you've more potted too, secured for Christmas for sure!! I hope you had a lovely time away. 😅

      Be very careful if you do line any pots in full view of others RedLipstick!! Like as not they'll be just as happy with them as you!! Please keep them safe!!

    Very well done with your £5 plus change Siju! 👏👏 I'd already found out how to put any words in bold last week, that part was the easiest, it was the rest that was baffling me.I see there's a message on Martin's newsletter.

    Excellent potting again Lost!!! 👏👏

    Well done with your potting Hetty.

    Good for you with your potting Tattypud!!

    Very well done MrsShazbat. Yes, January is over but this week is going to be just as bad as the last I'm afraid! We can't win this winter! 

    1. Have a great WEEK ahead folks! It's going to be wet, so be prepared!
