    Morning everyone
    Had a MS in Liverpool city centre last night, so before we went DW decided she wanted something from the Body shop, while we were looking around, I noticed a young lady who was in a lot of distress. I asked if she was OK and she said she'd lost her Wedding ring, a platinum ring with 21 diamonds in it :eek:, anyway we all got on the floor to look for it, I then enlisted the help of the assistants in the shop, I went to look by the window and noticed her Wedding ring on the floor outside the shop :j. The result one very happy young lady :Tplus the manageress of the shop rewarded Sparky with some face scrubs and other creams for being a good samartin :D. I'm just made up that the poor girl got her Wedding ring back.

    A few gold coins and extra change into my pot, plus 2p road change in Liverpool1.

    Have a great day everyone, stay safe and keep saving from St Sparky of Liverpool :A

  • Hi LC2 - I'm browsing ebay right now;) I also have stuff to sell on there, but I have so much I just wanted to get rid of it quickly. It was good to see the books I donated on the shelves today.:A

    Hi LC

    Just listed 28 items !!!:eek::eek: Usually would have just thrown these out but see what MSE has done for me.

    GS party so just catching up on here then it's all systems go

    Hi All,

    #1292 reporting for a massive £1-05 in the jar.

    Waffle warning.

    I haven't set a target so hmm I think I will go for let's see £600 by the end of the year or sooner. This is nearly half of one of my debts and should something go wrong I will throw it at that debt.

    I might need to default on keeping it sealed till the end of the year as if I succeed in reaching the balance for one debt it will unceremoniously fill that void.

    At least I don't think I have set a target anyway. I might be getting crossed lines with the pay off as much as you can challenge.

    I think I will also set myself of another target of £50 by the end of March. Ambitious as I have a fuel bill that will need tackling first.

    Nothing to report on roadkill.

    I told you it was a lot of waffle but you insisted on reading it.

    HI POLKA PURPURA

    I thought you meant waffles with maple syrup :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
