  • Hi Everyone

    Went shopping with DH and found 1p bent to pick it up and the couple behind bumped straight into us. DH was sooo embarrassed and has said he will never come out with me again. Explained that it was their fault they shouldn't have been so close. This then escalated into an argument over his driving. Needless to say we are not speaking now. Still at least I found 1p:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Hi all, mind if I join in?

    I got a sealed pot for my birthday, and I'm going to put in every £2 coin I get from change! Aiming for £150 by next xmas :D

    I also have another "Pot" (It's actually an old 5-litre beer keg :D)which I use for coppers. No goal on the copper pot, I'm simply saving up enough to buy something I've always wanted - a mini treasure chest! There are some really nice ones for about £40 on eBay, and I'm going to use my coppers to get one finally!
    Credit Card - £300 Overdraft - £2000.
    Student Loan - £19001.00.

    Morning Sue
    Scootering season has already started, last weekend the local clubs had a scooter run for Alder Hey childrens hospital in Liverpool and raised over £1600, I couldn't go due to working.

    Morning Everyone

    Me and DH are now talking I say because we should never sleep before making up, he says cos I can't keep quiet for longer than 10 mins :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Family came down and he told them all how I caused a MAJOR!!! accident all over 1p!!

    Anyway just sent him Mr M's so hopefully some change.

    Today is the day when I bank my full bags of change and squirrel the odd bits away. Don't worry SPARKY will update signature later
