I would say yes too @ThriftyPrincess40 If you have a record of your penny challenge pots when it comes to declaration day then by all means add them to your declared total,
@VickyA_2 I’ll definitely get to Lincolnshire one day. Reckon I’ve visited every other county in England apart from Rutland so not sure why I’ve missed your county. Cousin told me our grandmother was originally from there, which makes it even more inexcusable not to have been there.

I’ve been meaning for a while to give my trainers a wash in the washing machine. Decided today was the day and they would dry nicely in the sun on the garden table.
Cue a proper downpour for the first time since I don’t know when. It was way too heavy for me to run out and retrieve them.
Ah well, back to my other pair for the next few days because my newer pair won’t be dry for a good while. It was so nice to have some proper rain though so I’m not complaining.

@AntoMac I actually live in Rutland, so do pop in for a cuppa on your way to Lincolnshire. 😉
Another few pounds potted, so it's all looking positive for a healthy declaration in October!

Haha thank you @VickyA_2 . I knew Rutland was Leicester-ish but had to look on the map to see how close I've been. Leicester, Peterborough, Hull are all places I've been to which might be close-ish. Part of the joy of watching my very average football team around the country is getting to visit lots of different places.

Ah, yes. The perils of following a sporting team to far flung/diverse grounds across the country! I'm a rugby fan and I've been to an interesting array of places.
In other news, £86.37 has become payable on TopCashback for an activity we did on our recent holiday. Duly claimed and potted!

Ooof it's hot again 🥵 short lived this time! Really feel for anyone living near any wildfires. There's one about 25 miles from us and we can sometimes see and smell the smoke. Must be horrible not being able to open windows and doors in these temperatures as well as the constant worry. Huge respect to the firefighters 💖 We are off on our travels again so will be missing for the next couple of weeks. Can't believe it'll be nearly September when we come home 😮
Potted £15 for the next 3 weeks plus some small change. Keep safe and well everyone xxx
