    Found some shrapnel in the pocket of my running jacket when I went out for a jog earlier (was meant to be a training run but couldnt be bothered) so thats been added to my bottle.

    T'other half has had bags of 1p and 2p sitting in the bedroom for weeks waiting to go to the bank. I have liberated them today and given him the money for them in £1 coins, so the bags of coin have been punted into my tub. Many clunks tonight for me :rotfl:

    So that totals another £4 into the tub today.
  • I have just trawled the house for 'shrapnel' and have clunked another £1.35 :D

    During my enforsed break(broken interwebby)
    I've got myself an old wood box a slot duly cut in and the lid firmly screwed down
    Had a count up as it all went into its new home £45.36:eek:
    Probably last time it gets counted until the box is full or next December, I think the box will be full before then:D

    Hope you all had a good Christmas:T:beer:
