    If the ROYAL MINT is reading -PLEASE MINT SOME MORE £2's!!!!

    Where are they all? Haven't seen one for over a week. I even 'cheated' 2 weeks ago and asked for my change in £2's - or actually DH did for me (umprompted) so it felt slightly less like cheating... :rolleyes:

    Although I'm trying to give myself a surprise, I did have a quick peek the other day and there seems to be over £30 worth!!!! :D

    Why don't you make one with a balloon and paper mache like they used to on Blue Peter? I'm on my 2nd one now. The best thing is they're free!
