    thats great, if I come across any suitable containers I will be making some of them thanks
  • Don't laugh but this is the verse we are using on our little pots

    A little cute santa with his pot of gold
    from us to you at christmas time
    A dream is better than something to hold
    So we wrote you a little rhyme
    Add some coins and a scratch card
    and let you dream of when lifes not hard
    because you've won a million pound
    and then we would always come around
    but you cant call any of us a gold digger
    just cos we like that your wallet would be bigger

    I know its pathetic but we tried.... Actually I might stick to the one posted by cattie, I couldn't find that when we wrote this one!
