    Hiya sparky! Not doing too bad, but will take a while longer with this cough for sure. We had a GREAT Christmas thanks, too smashing days one with daughter and family and yesterday with our lad and his wife, the type of days that you thoroughly enjoy! You and DW too I'm sure. Oh dear, she's more than welcome in that kind of traffic, poor lass. I hope she's soon back home and safe.

    I see you've already been over the park trying to pay for your Christmas then!! :rolleyes: ;) No luck today then ...better luck tomorrow! How about that total now! :eek:
    Tara for now sparks .

    DW is home safe now :D, we had the family get together yesterday, and a nice time was had by all ;). Found another fiver today walking the dog, that's safe with the other one I found on Christams Eve :j. Can't wait for the total for next year

    This thread is having a bad influence on my spending.

    Sparky,

    Hope your DW did better than me think she was really brave to go to the Trafford Center. First time I went there I lost the car!!! I take a note of where I park it now.

  • Count me in for this. I already save odd bits of change and my wife is always having a go at me for leaving money around - this way she can put it into the sealed pot!!

    Roll on December 2010 when I can smash it open!!
