    Another £5 and some small change in the pot this week. Actually saw some sunshine yesterday afternoon, makes me think spring isn't too far away 🤔 Have a lovely weekend and wrap up warm 😊

    Hello SPCers I hope you had a wonderful weekend. What a shocking week, though it's getting better!!

    To all those feeling poorly or down in anyway, do please get well soon! Meanwhile

    love and hugs from all of us here at SPC 

    More good potting Ant.


    Excellent potting LMD!!


    Hello again Lucy! I hope all's well with you and the family. Wonderful news that your DD2 has repaid what she owed and your pot is now a very healthy £200 better off!! Definitely a bonus to my mind!😀

    Congratulations LMD!! Another lovely sum so far this week!! 👏


    Ooh I do hope your thoughts are right Siju!! Let's hope spring is so very much better than winter has been, especially the last 6 weeks or so. 😡 We've had a few snowdrops out since November and a lot more have caught up since. Now the crocus are up and daffodils are in bud. A wonderful time of year as long as we get some sun! The Mets 10 Day Trend last night said there would still be rain after the 'blocking high' clears away, it has been sitting over Norway for several weeks hence the near nonstop rain! 🙄 Still, the oncoming rain will pass through a lot faster. 🤗 Very well done with your £5!

    Have a good day, folks, by the by, SATURDAY is the best day of the weekend!!

    You’ve hit my weakness right on the head there @VickyA_2

    You have motivated me to NOT buy a coffee today. I have just potted the £4 I would have spent on it
