    1p for me today please (yeah I know thats rubbish, I've got no change at the min and all accounts are nicely rounded so I had to nick the penny off the BF!)

    I've just seen a baby bird fall out of its nest outside - its mum was fussing round it feeding it and trying to help it fly but the poor little thing was tiny, it was managing to flutter around but it couldn't get high enough off the ground. I was just trying to decide whether it would be too stressful to the baby bird if I picked it up and put it back near the nest when a huge jay swooped down and ate the poor little mite :eek::(

    Just 20p to the sealed pot today, more scavaging! Euro hope you had a great time at the beach concert. Flower hope you are settling in ok? Jwil cant believe it accepted 1p!

    Have a lovely weekend all x

    I couldn't believe it either, I expected that it would be a minimum of £1, but it went through ok. I hope it really annoys MBNA!

    Silaqui - I love your avatar - Sawyer, mmmmm...... :D

    That's horrible about the baby bird.

    Yes, but different too :D I love Scotland - my folks live on Orkney so I spend a lot of time in Scotland (my avatar is the Ring of Brodgar). If I win the lottery I'd like to have a house in Somerset and another one in the Highlands.


    I don't like Scotland...there's too much snow and waaaay too many midgies! :D

    Well there's plenty to do here, hope you have a great trip. Whereabouts are you staying?

    It's near Axbridge - a place called Chapel Allerton. I need to get the ordnance survey map for the area.
  • Forgot to say, 28p to the sealed pot, left over from weekly budget.
