  • Hiya, not been about much over the past few days, but added roughly £2 to my tin to make up for it
  • hey there
    not much in mine, ds brought change back from bus - so 70p went in, found a penny, and dd put in a pile of coppers

    on the positive side, I guess its good cos we don't have any cash anywhere (except in the bank)

    :hello: Hello everybody,

    I've had a NSD for the last couple of days so not much change available for the 'pot'.

    I did find 12cents on my daughter's bedroom floor though so that went in, and today she has left $1.06 on the table, how long does it have to stay there before it is acceptable for me to pilfer it?

    Sue-UU, as tempting as it is to walk down the street with a pickaxe (!) I don't think I will because, A) I haven't got the muscles, and B) I'm pretty sure the RCMP would be on my tail, and then I'd probably have to spend a night in the cell whilst I explained that I really was carrying a pickaxe so I could get at one cent buried under the ice. On second thoughts though, a night at the station with an RCMP, hmmmm.:naughty:

    Have a good day everybody.:wave:


    PS I'm having trouble with my 'thanks' button, and it's not always 'thanking', it's a bit hiss and mit, so please don't anybody get miffed.:confused:
  • I have been a bit quiet - but that was because I shamed myself by raiding my £2 pot to get some milk. I did confess it at the time but pottable money has been slim of late so it is only today that I have been able to repay the pot :T

    So now I have repaid my debts (to the pot - not overall, more is the pity) I feel I can come back to play :rotfl:

    Will you have me back??

    :hello: Hey Poorandindenial,

    So you fell off the wagon, we're all going to do that at some point, I know I am at least, of course you can come back. Sue-UU, Stunty and Sparky are pretty cool, they'll welcome you back with open arms I'm sure, have a dodgy hug :grouphug: and join the party _party_ .

    :wave: Toodles.

    Don't be a silly goose, course you're still in the challenge! Some people on last years challenge had to raid their jars, it happens!
