  • £4.05 in my pot today, I went out last night and my mum was concerned as to how I was going to get to the train station from the restaurant (it was quite a remote area). So I shelled out for a taxi to the train station and she decided that her peace of mind was worth reimbursing the cost of my taxi!
    Thank you competition posters!

    Hallo everyone - hope you're having a good weekend.

    I had another travel disaster last night. Someone decided to throw themselves under the train I was on. It was awful....felt so bad for the driver and then the police etc that had to do the clear up :(:(:(:(
    Got home 5 hrs late :(

    Sealed pot is still getting fatter - hope to add more tomorrow. :A

    Morning everyone
    1 X £2 coin & 2 X 50p into the Summer 2011 fund. Also 3p road change. I potted my usual £2 plus a lot of change yesterday and I plundered £1 odd in loose change from DW's purse, don't tell her though, I think I got away with it

    Hello nu1isit?

    I bet you do a better job of winding the little ones up...and bet they learnt everything from the master your poor wife:p:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::D

    Whatever do you mean Footiemad :p?

    I'm sorry to hear that Little Chicken, I hope your okay...

    Well, you all may be wondering why is he up up at this ungodly hour on Sunday (the official day of rest)...Is he a crazy fool? No, well maybe...Of course I'm not (ahem ***clears cough in throat***). It's car boot day today, the official contender for best day of the week :D:p:D. Time to get elbowed by little old ladies with a glint in their eye :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:.
    Right, I'm sticking a lovely big golden coloured coin into the pot today, and whatever's left in change at the end of the day...:T

    Hope you all have a great day :beer:.

  • morning all,

    getting on well with my savings, got a rough idea how much i have in but will keep it a secret for now:money:

    well im off to go enjoy the rest of my day!

  • morning, hope everyone is well :) I've not had chance to catch up on posts yet but I'm hoping I will later.

    What a beautiful day, I've even got some washing out on the line.

    I potted 57p yesterday and I'm about to start another load of listing on ebay, it really is tedious but I'm hoping to make the most of their free listing weekend.

    Will be back later to catch up on everyone's news, xx
