    evenin' all. As I've been good and spent no money on lunches for the past 2 days a whole pound has gone in the pot.
    The homemade pot has dried nicely but needs a few more layers before it's strong enough to hold the small change.

    HW, on the first Sealed Pot Challenge last year thread theres some photos of the papermache pigs a few of us made, I'll try and find you the link. There's some crackers on there.

    Debt-free and Proud!
    Here are some more folks
    If electricity comes from electrons, does morality come from morons?


    Do the Alphabet song and Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star have the same tune?


    Why did you just try singing the two songs above?


    Why do they call it an asteroid when it's outside the hemisphere, but call it a haemorrhoid when it's in your butt?


    Did you ever notice that when you blow in a dog's face, he gets mad at you, but when you take him for a car ride, he sticks his head out the window?

    Why, Why, Why



    Why do we press harder on a remote control when we know the batteries are getting dead?

    Why do banks charge a fee on 'insufficient funds' when they know there is not enough money?

    Why does someone
    believe you when you say there are four billion stars, but check when you say the paint is wet?

    Afternoon everyone,
    Lets see how long before we have to change to another new thread, not long at the rate we're going. Put about 4 pound & some change in today, also another 8p in road change, also yet another 2 pound coin (10 in 3 days).

    A very warm welcome to the newbies, everyone is welcome to join, and don't forget, I'm the official counter upperrer so when you count your pots on Dec 1st, post your total up so we can get an overall total of the combined pots.

    Looks like a wet day in Mathew St stunty, hope your cap is waterproof lol, hope you also find lots of road change, dropped by drunken revellers. I looked on the webcam, but I think I was a bit late to spot you!


    Does this mean that when, we have the count up sparky, you get a percentage? :rolleyes::rotfl:

    I got caught by that hehe


    £2.43 in the pot tonight - When we start again and I'm doing it for the whole year there won't be quite so much going in on a daily basis - i'm hitting it hard to make sure there is some money for my DD and DS for Christmas [hi-light that bit]

    PS hope you are keeping well
