    Ask yourself: did you stop trying because you failed or fail because you stopped trying?

    I think I have incurred the wrath of the £2 fairy. Since banking mine last week I've not been offered any in change.
    I have got the £2's sat earning interest though.
    Got another £11 from the coin sorter to pay in tomorrow though (£10 in 20p and £1 in 2p).

    Bow down and worship at the altar of Greenfingers. I really don't know how you find the patience. It's turned into a bit of a monster, hasn't it?!!!

    Still, £11k is fab. How many people's debts on here would that pay off?

    I got a load in my pub wages tonight!!! They've been saving them for me!! :j Although feel a bit like a saddo because of it!!!

    The regulars call me the £2 coin queen!! I give lectures on people who spend them and tell people they should save them!!! Think I may be sectioned soon!!

    Was a good night though, had some lovely champagne!!! Boss was bored!! (bit p'ed!!) Trying to type right, taking ages!!!

    I love £2 coins, but think I may have a problem......I can't seem to bring myself to bank them.....does anyone else have this problem???? :confused: I feel like if I bank them then I might not find anymore............ :o

    Still not got any....!!!

    Thinking of starting a £2 Savers Resistance Movement - for those of us who find £2 coins resistant to our grasp!
    £2 coin savings = zero (I never get any £2 coins 'cos the rest of you are hogging them in your piggy banks!) :rotfl:
