    Lucky you! Is there any chance I could buy about 10 from you? I could transfer some money by Paypal? There are some on Ebay but I'd prefer to give the money to a fellow DFWer!

    £3.66 across today as paid my final Vanquis bill, so rounded up the payment into my sealed pot. Sig updated!

    EDIT - just remembered I took £5 out of my real sealed pot at the weekend for laundry so have transferred that across from my current account to the virtual pot. Sig updated again!

    Just fixed a neighbour's daughter's computer, and she insisted on giving me money - so that's another £10 for the pot :)
