    I’ve just added up my pot and it’s actually at £27.

    I’m going to the library tomorrow to print off some documents so will add in any spare change to my pot.

    #53 finally reporting in after many months of absolutely no roadkill, bar two lonely pennies.

    Walking back to the car today, I found a lovely crips £5 in the gutter. Needless to say, that's been potted nice and safely!

    Hello there SPCers! I hope you've had a good week and are ready for a smashing a smashing weekend!! :j
    For those who are not well or who are low in spirits, take great care of yourselves. Get well soon and {{{{hugs}}}} from all the SPC family. :grinheart


    Hi Melody. That's excellent news, though not the depression and anxiety, but if they can help you with that it'll be wonderful!! :j
    Great news about you being able to get more sleep too as having extra energy will help you to be more physical, and in time help with your desire to shift the extra weight you have. :D

    Onwards and upwards Melody, that's the way forward! Bring your DH and DD into it to help give you the support you need, we all need our loved ones to help see us through! :love:

    I have joined in the past - and have a number from then. I know it's late in the challenge but please can I join in again?

    Do I keep the number or will I get a new number?
    Hoping to have £300 by opening day!

    Hello again Jellyb, and a very warm welcome back! :D Yes, I'm afraid you most certainly need a different No as anyone not declaring within 2 weeks of the declaration date, 31st October, is taken off the list. Your No is 129. PLEASE make sure you pop it on your Signature as it's vital! Good luck with saving the £300!

    Good potting squanderscouse! :D

    Well Loz, depending on how much you're able to save, I hope you're very happy with your savings so far. I don't advocate counting up during the year, but if it helps give you the urge to save harder then ok.
    All the best with it. ;)
    Keep saving hard Potters, only 3+ months to go!! :eek:
    Ah Westie, it's good to see you again :D though so sorry to hear about the family emergency.

    WOW claremylove, congratulations on a free £5er!!!!
    It's a shame cards are used so much now...no one's thinking about us poor potters! :idea:
    More amazing news Choccygirl, really well done!!!! :dance:
    £15 potted today after we went shopping, I'm very happy with that!!



    Have a relaxing evening and a super weekend folks. :j

    Don't forget to feed your pots!! ;)

    Sue

    NB folks: Opening date for SPC 12 will be 31st October 2019


    Anyone wishing to join us, it's NEVER too late, so please just ask, you'll be made very welcome!

    Hi All

    Realised I have forgotten to update my potting over the last few weeks. I have added £30 and hope to add more next month after payday.

    Still potting, although our loose change bottle was emptied before our holidays and paid for our campsite pitch. We've been back a month or so now, but only did my first purse clear-out yesterday - shrapnel into the bottle, starting that again for next year, and £5 in £2s and a £1 into the sealed pot. Need to resume my eb*ying now. And in car news it looks like I'll have to go to court to get my insurance claim paid.

    Hi Sue-UU Thankyou for the lovely message. My husband has been my rock with all of this. He loves me no matter what size/shape I am but he wants me to be happy with myself so is helping me all the way😊And my daughter is always there with a smile and hugs and kissesxxx

    I have lost 2 3/4lbs this week so nearly back to where I was so I'm pleased with that. I've also found a zumba club I am going to try tomorrow which should help more.

    Managed to pot another £7.00 yesterday into my tin and while cleaning up the kitchen side I found lots of coppers and silver's so they went into my daughter's jar. Here's to hopefully a positive week filled with happiness and money to pot:beer::j
