    hi nu1isit? your pottie is bit scary, is than an anti-theft device?

    It could well be Little Chicken :D..Perhaps I could build a life sized model and stick it in the front garden :p:rotfl::p.
    nu1isit? You are making my day with the instalments. Not laughed that much in ages. :p :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    I'm glad some goods coming from it Footiemad :D...
    Hey! It's brilliant, nu1isit?, I love it and you've done a great job in thinking it out - fantastic! :j Are you painting him?

    Thanks very much Sue U-U. Yes it is getting painted the daughter's getting excited about it now...

    Right I'm off now, to haggle at the car boot and cause chaos :p....

    Have a good day everyone...

  • hi,

    received cheque from council - £82.82, and that has been banked, not sure if money will be going in pot or being used to pay £40 to dj and £40 to hall OR if it going in jar ready to pay them in dec. will ask what they prefer.

    there is another £1 in pot and 84 loose change in bottle.
    due to spilling coffee :coffee: on my keyboard it works when it wants to :rotfl:

    wow nu1isit that is some sp you are creating, it looks fab !!! maybe you should take orders ;)

    I'm not quite sure where this weekend has gone, I can't believe it's Sunday afternoon already !!! I had a great day yesterday, took dd to see Tangled and hubby paid so I had a NSD :D I've just returned from doing my weekly shop and because I stuck to my shopping list it came in twenty quid under budget so I've popped that into my pot. I had a few pennies rattling around in my purse which I think I may have obtained from hubby so I've popped those in too.

    I hope everyone is having a good weekend, I can't believe that the wind and rain is back again. I've got some homemade soup on the go for lunch which is a combination of left over veg and then I need to set about doing a few ebay listings.

    take care everyone x

    I treated myself and bought myself one of those pretty ceramic jars, so I'm waiting for it to arrive. I already have some coins and notes that I'm eager to put into it (because I'm very tempted to spend them).
  • ah another £8 in my pot!! my brother is staying and not seen him or his family for ages,,he came back from shops and stuck his change in!!! I am more than happy thats loads!! Extra bit of yorkshire for him today ;-)
