Hi Fishcakes, congratulations on the good news, I'm sure to say you are thrilled is an understatement, all good wishes to you and your family.:T
Hi Sandy,

No really, this guy even coerces 'smaller' people to work alongside him just so he doesn't have as far to bend down, no shame at all!:rotfl:
And here's a random thought. Has anybody else realised the common nickname that LittleChicken and LuckyCharlie share. Chuck!!! No? Just me? I'll get my coat then.:p
And just to stay on topic, 11cents in the pot for me today.:T
Keep safe and warm.
PS Sparky, I overshot the driveaway again, doh!:rolleyes:0 -
I have only mustered up about 7p for the pot this week, but that is because I haven't spent anything
except for a round of drinks in the pub last night. Sadly most of the change from that was non-potworthy but we all have a cross to bear. Looks like I will be lobbing £20 in tomorrow if I still haven't spent on food (except when I go to the pub tomorrow night, I don't think drinking on an empty stomach will be a good move :eek:) £34,547 (Dec 07); Current debt: £zilch (Debt free December 2010)
