    Bigbum, nice find of £1 coin, good to hear you're getting some good tips, but a word from the wise, don't be led astray by reb & luckycharlie, they're trouble when they're together :rotfl: . Don't be tempted by them, I think we're going to have to re-introduce the naughty step & lines where these two are concerned :rolleyes:


    Have a great day everyone, take care & keep saving :D

    You really do not know the half of it sparky, but then I guess no-one knows all about you either.....;) :p

    I miss Little.......what's her name?

    have a good Friday everyone. :T
    I don't get to come on here too often.
    Too buzy money saving!
    :D

    My desktop's sposed to be right, but - no mail now - unless I do a system restore to 3 days before the problems started!!! On phoning him up about it, the techie said "oh well stick to that then"!!! :eek: silly b*****!

    That techie IS a pro sparky!!!! I've undone the system restore and had to download my mailer again! Shan't be using that village eejit again!!!:mad:

    Don't you worry sparky, I've got me eye on the blighters! I mention no names at all :naughty:, but I'm closely monitoring that reb & LC2 for starters and can feel the naughty step'll soon be out, yep, lines too!

    On the serious side about your DW's young colleague sparky: That was so very sad and my heart goes out to his poor parents who brought him up to have a good life and then thugs (murderers) think they have the right to just take it away! :mad: It makes me so very savage! Those who do such evil things should (when/if) caught be given a hell of a long sentence in an isolation cell so they can do nothing else but think about what they've done. Then before being released having to face All the loved ones of the poor lad and let them give him hell!!!

    Anyone watch the "Would you step into help someone?" (or a very similar title) programme at 9 pm last night? It was so very sad. It went to show such cases where all the passengers on a bus just sat there and ignored a 12 year old lass being savagely attacked by a group of older teens (girls!!!) and paying absolutely no attention to her screams for help!!! Thank Heavens there were other cases where folk fought tooth & nail to help others in distress, one getting killed themselves - again by vicious thugs!! :mad:

    Sorry folks, rant over ...but they make me SICK!!!

    Good to see you back I love tea!!!

    £2.20 in the pot for me today!

    Don't forget folks get your posts on before 10 pm today!!! Says she who's always late! :rolleyes: If I can't make it on here before then, have a great weekend ALL!

  • I told some lovely young man to leave someone alone yesterday as he was holding him down on the floor and the victim was shouting for him to get off, since the lovely young man in question was so thick he could barely speak all I could understand was ''blah blah blah he's my friend you dozy f***ing b**ch''. I had 6 year old DD with me so I just stared him out and walked on. Sadly I regularly see this lad knocking seven bells out of the other but the ''victim'' hangs around with him so what can you do?

    On a lighter note, I've had no £2 coins this week' they are in all your pots obviously.

    Thanks Sue & FC200,
    Totally agree with you sue, but the dogooders wouldn't allow them to be left on their own in solitary, incase it infringed their "human rights", the police have arrested some people in connection with the murder, I bet the charge is changed to manslaughter, even though they were all carrying knives!

    I got 3 £2 coins in my change yesterday & I've also put a few coins into my sealed pot. It's going to seem strange, not being able to get onto the MSE forums over the weekend, there'll be a lot of catching up to do Sunday night/Monday morning lol.

    :j I am off away for a few days as soon as it should come live, so I may not get back on. So if I don't please 'look after' LC and LC2 until I return....give them hell.......LOL!! :j

    Until I return may all your savings be great and huge.........LC will be broke till I get back at least, will have spent it all on holiday me guesseth. so hopefully she will not get ahead of me. Make sure please that you all pick up the roadkill so there is NONE for her. LC2 is going to have her head in a book all weekend so that will keep her quiet. Sparky and stunty behave. SueUU enjoy the break we will all be back too soon to keep you on your toes. :T

    I managed to put all my wages in the pot this week, daren't take them away with me for fear I may spend them, that is all except the £3 the hospital charged me at the car park to attend an appointment! Arrgggghhhhh! :mad:

    Hi Everyone

    Sorry not been on for a while, have missed loads of banter I guess. Have still been putting the pennies in the pot though.

    Hope everyone is well!! I'm guessing MSE is going to be down for a while, not scrolled through to read anymore than the last page yet, but I will catch up with you all again soon.

    Oh Sue - still not smoking - how good is that!!!!

    Take care.

    :mad: No £2 coins in my change for the last few days, and no roadkill! Unless you can count the several tic tacs that managed to fly out of the tub whilst i tried to get one whilst driving. That'll teach me, I'll be finding them in the car for weeks now! :eek:
