Update on the scooter run!
We had a great day until it was time to come home. The clutch on my mate's scooter started to go, so another friend offered to take my DW (I can't carry her at the mo, due to being a learner!) on the East Lancs road, the scooter carrying my DW had a front tyre blow out and both of them came off at about 50mph, thankfully both of them suffered only superficial wounds, but it could have been much worse, someone must have been watching over them because there was no traffic directly behind them when it happened. I'm so glad they're both OKSparky0107 - Sealed pot challenge member #002. Total for SPC3 £1,030.57 Total For SPC 4 £2247.00 Total for SPC 5 £2574.62 :T Total for SPC 6 £4552.91:T

I've lost track of exactly how much has gone into my sealed pot this weekend, but through various different reasons (change from nights out, people owing me and some Grand National winnings change) I think I've added around £17 - not bad as this is my first post in what feels like ages!Light Bulb 13/09/09: £15,061.37 Debts at their highest:

Hi SPARKY
Had to go to the warehouse in Astley so caught up with you all there I had to wait a bit but the official guy by the lights was there so I knew you were on the way, and very impressive you all were did you have a squirrels tail on the back:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: The guy with the England Flags with the black bike, yes I know a few of them had flags but one guys was done up more than the others, his looked good and I spotted a very old Lamberetta reconised it cos one of my old boyfriends had one :rotfl::rotfl:
It looked a really good day out such a shame about the ending . You tell your DW I'm glad it's not put her off.

Oh sparky! That was so fortunate that DW and your mate only have superficial wounds, I reckon you have to be right in that someone had to be watching over them both!! :A Please give her my very best wishes and let her know I'm thinking of her.
Tut, tut with your LO's LC2! Such shocking behaviour ...and they talk about the kiddies these days!!!
Well done rusty! Good to see you again too.
Pennies are better than nowt Pam, keep it up and things may improve anyway.
£4.31p in the pot for me today and very chuffed with it I was too! Also chuffed with an offer that B**ts had on, if you use N*vea cream at all anyone, they have 3 for the price of 2!!
Good to see you whenever you can make it girlatplay, just don't become too much of a stranger though!
