Went out for a meal with other half last weekend, when we finished we went to a bar and sat on their posh leather sofa for a drink! Anyway, OH's car keys fell out his pocket down the back of the sofa, he pulled the cushion forward and found £7.00 in pound coins! It covered our taxi home!:beer:

Stuff is always falling inside our sofa, in fact we recently had to cut a small hole in the underside of it when we realised hubby had lost £4 down there!
As well as the £4, we found another £3.02, a lipstick, 2 pens, a chocolate eclair (the chewy toffee sort, not a cream cake:)), a sonic screwdriver :rolleyes:, a sharp bit of plastic (ouch) and a silver magnetix ball (possibly some other stuff too, but I can't remember).
Must do it again some day soon!"I wasn't wrong, I just wasn't right enough.":smileyhea97800072589250 -
