            Hi, not spent any cash today - got prescriptions on debit card (note to self: get prepaid prescription card, will save loadsa money with that!) - but did find 10p in the kitchen which was very sticky :confused: so washed it up and put it in the pot!
            Thanks for info on the virus, it sounds awful.
