    well, got to my mini target of another £30, went down to the post office to draw out the last of my savings and get some currency for holiday and managed to pick up four more of the little shinys along the way! one from buying a lovely milkshake (treated myself for having lost 2.5lbs this week) and three more from nationwide when i withdrew some funds from an old isa! also paid in a £5 coin i had lying around, the lady looked at it (and me) a bit funny but decided it was ok!

    I can't believe it!!! Shazzer 22 is akin to Indiana Jones!!!

    I've been in search of the Holy grail (a £5 coin) and you just happen to have one lying round!!!!!
