    Evening all!

    28p In my pottery piggy today:j (Change from shopping)

    Got told off by DH tonight for staring at the ground too intently whilst searching for pavement pennies. His words being something along the lines of " Can you be a little less obvious -you look like you're about to fall over! Had to laugh when he shot along the pavement at break neck speed because he thought he saw a £2 coin. It turned out to be a bit of silver paper with a hole in it:rotfl:

    Well, I don't seem to be too good at 'roadkill' but did manage to hoover up a £1 coin in the bedroom, so that was fished out and put in Amazon pot. Plus 10p for the goat pot as it was all the change I had. Must try harder......
      To those who are given much, much is expected
