    I'm off to Mr M's early at least I might stand a chance of finding the odd penny. You must be very near the ground are you sure you're not crawling along. Still the weather is getting better so you will soon be on your bike and won't see the road kill and I can get it

    I only crawl along the ground when I'm trying to get overtime out of the boss :D
    I'm hanging magnets off the chrome bars on my scooter so I can scoop any loose change up as I ride past :rotfl:

    Last years road change paid for my scooter MoT, tax & a tank of petrol about £48 in all, not bad for loking down at the ground :D

    Hi everyone, I hope you're all well. I battled madly to get on here yesterday morning but couldn't , tried again in the evening but still no joy! Was I ever MAD!!! ISP service still not right, but at least - for now - I have access. :D Any way, thank you ALL so very much indeed for the lovely Birthday greetings for Caz, Nicky & I, they were a delight to see, though I think Caz is still in Germany visiting her Son - THANK YOU ONE AND ALL. BTW, Nicky, I'm forced to agree with you that the best folk are born on March 5th! I had a brilliant day and a lovely evening having a mean with the family, superb!!

    21's gone for me sparky...I was 22 yesterday....and counting ....albeit slowly.:p

    FANTASTIC news about being below £100.000, LC!!!! :T:T Keep right on chipping away at it as you too can clear yours...in time.;)

    Great news about your £40 from Valued Opinions, LC 2!!! :j


    Oh, jakes-mum, that's so good of you to make sure your Mum & Dad have the food they'll need to start off with after their holiday, they have to be blessed with a lass like you! All the best for your DD that she can have chicken pox and get it over with, my friend had it in her 30's and was really ill with it. BTW, I loved this bit --> "I think your right Sue-UU, I reckon its that Sparky sneaking down to Cambridge and nicking all my road change, get thee back to nicking LC2's road change and leave mine be!!" :rotfl:


    You're doing really well, WER,:T almost better than me!!! :(;) Keep nobbling from your DH

    Excellent news on your £5er AND your first 2p roadkill, teameffort!!!!:T

    You're really doing well tattycath, a nice surprise for you come December! :D


    Where's nu1isit?, stuck in his laboratory I suppose.


    Have a wonderful week everyone, and remember we're all out to beat sparky with roadkill finds - noses to the ground folks and don't worry about the blisters! :rotfl:

    Sue x Anyone wishing to join, just ask, you're more than welcome, it's never too late.

    Hubby has given up smoking, hes gone from 10+ a day to 1 a day if hes desperate (some days none at all :D), I bought him a pack of 10 on thursday just so he knows there is some in the house as he seems to cope better that way. so ive popped the other £3 he would have spent on a pack of 20 in the pot, and ive told him that for every week he doesnt smoke i'll pop £5 extra in the pot and he can have £5 per week for his online game. If i have to buy him a pack of 10 a week then pot money goes down to £3. Trying to give him some encouragement :D

    Ahh sue-UU its me thats blessed with my mum, she works full time but since I fell ill shes taken over alot of my housework stuff, she cooks dinners for my kids, goes to all my sons school things that I cant attend . . the list is endless tbh. So to get her a bit of bread is the least I can do :)
