    Happy Easter everyone! :D

    I just popped in to say that I've potted a measly 30p this morning which is all I will be able to pot until next weekend :( But never mind it's Easter and I have been given a yummy chocolate egg! :)

    Have a lovely long weekend everyone and a big welcome to the Newbies. Happy potting! x

    Thanks so much for your welcome. Feeling quite pleased with myself, went to the local £1 shop but they didn't have any sealed tins howvever they did have Nair wax strips which I bought as they will save me £8 on having a leg wax! (Too much?!) Made my own jar when I got home and sorted out my loose change, I then sorted alll my 2p's into a money bag ready for the Penny Arcades tomorrow, my guilty treat!!
    Happy Easter everyone :-)
