    At little bit more potting on Friday, which was payday, so some of the "leftover" money was duly potted. Closer to £1,000,000 than I was (but still a VERY long way away from that £1m 😂).

    £37.85 in the Plum virtual pot this week. Something weird has happened this month; we got paid on the 18th and apart from what I spent on my birthday afternoon out on Saturday, I haven't spent anything other than on food shopping/bills!! 😂

    Hope everyone is OK and the weather is bearable. I know some people love the heat whilst others are not so keen. Once we go over about 25 degrees that’s a bit much for me. Today’s around 22 degrees which is more comfortable.
    Really hoping that we’ll hear from Sue soon and that she is feeling much better 🙏

    I’ve potted some train delay compensation and some more coins

    I agree @AntoMac, I love the sun but it can become too intense when it's too hot and I really don't like losing sleep when it's warm overnight....I love my sleep 🤣 I haven't heard anything from Sue but hopefully she's on the mend 🤞

    Another fiver and some change in the pot. Have a lovely (cooler) week 😎

    End of the month and I had £10 leftover from the budget in the joint account, so that's been put aside for the sealed pot (and will specifically be used for Christmas food).

    Then I had £2.50 payable from TopCashback. Winning!
