            Reb, thanks for holding the fort while I was away ;)

            Luckycharlie, thanks for asking after me, I'm touched that you missed me, normally the only people who miss me are my DW and people I owe money to :rolleyes:
            Hi Sparky....I missed you, does that mean you owe me money?
            :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: I wish!!

            I have to admit to calling into KFC for an Avalanche today out of my wages. First time I have done it since Christmas though so I am not going to fall out with myself about it. I had a very stressful morning with one of my girls, bless her! However it does mean I have a little less to put in my tin today.
            I don't get to come on here too often.
            Too buzy money saving!
            :D
          3. LC I just saw your fantastic news :T :T :T :T :T :T :T

            Actually I wish you could make the :T HUGE

            So..... when do you start? :D

          5. lol - I just realised that in my last post I got too excited about LC and forgot to do an update.

            I haven't posted much of late but I have been putting the odd quid in my pots here and there. £2 coins seem to be thin on the ground again and I haven't had a 10p in weeks!!!!! I also have yet to pop my roadkill cherry!

          6. Hi everyone,
            Sorry I haven't posted for awhile, I seem to have less time now I've retired & OH keeps hogging the computer! I'm still doing the challenge and think we should have about £400.00 by Dec.
            I emptied our beefeater yesterday (this is our £2.00 pot) and its not been opened since Dec, we were well pleased as we had £84.00 to put in our sealed pot.

            WER,
            You'll have to start sending your OH on messages :rolleyes: so you can get control of your 'puter. Nice amount in the old £2 coin stakes BTW. :D
