    I work for an airline at Stansted so I find random cents all over the plane when clearing up! So I pocket all of them, as you can see it all adds up :T

    Oh and I'm certainly not blonde, although I do have some days like that :p

    hi all. 14p for me. not much but at least it's something. don't think i'll have much when i open it though. i'll have to try harder for the next challenge.

    just out of curiosity how long does each sealed pot challenge last?

    Hi Starnac,

    For as long as you can manage it! :rotfl:

    Officially we're all opening our pots on the 1st Dec and letting Sparky know how much we each have so he can do a grand total, then the next challenge starts on the 2nd Dec, until, presumably the 1st Dec 2010
