    Anybody missing....LC1....LC2 and Reb:rolleyes:

    Hope they are having a good time.:beer:
    Mmmmmm so did anyone miss me?? :confused:
    Thought not! ..............may as well stay on the naughty step for another week.
    I'm quite beginning to enjoy it.

    No ice creams whilst we were away so I put the money in the pot.

    Are LC1 and 2 back yet? LC is probably taking an early night to get her strength up for work tomorrow. Bless them they're getting older and broker as the year rolls round.
    I don't get to come on here too often.
    Too buzy money saving!
    :D

    Hello! Just popping in to say hi. I find it hard to keep up with this thread, so thought I would just read the current page but sorry I didn't thank you my button is being annoying and refreshing all the time.

    Anyway, I've saved £50 in my pot and have put it in the bank! So that's fab! It's in a high interest account. The only problem is that the radiator on the car has a huge hole in it and we need a new one but hopefully won't have to get that money out again. Would be great to save it for a bigger disaster than that!

    Hello funsters :hello:

    Hope you all had a pleasant day.

    Skippycat, hope your first day at work went well :).

    I can't believe the luck i'm having. I found £5 today in a public toilet :j. Talk about roadkill :rotfl:. It was just lying there on the floor, all scruntched-up, calling my name. I had no option but to pick up the lonely tyke and add him to my collection of waifs and strays in my tin :rotfl:.

    Sue, i tried sending out 'roadkill' vibes to you yesterday, but it seems i absorbed them all and found more money :confused::p. My apologies, i'm trying again for you now :D.

    Have a good evening peeps!
