    I have just discovered we won £25 on the lottery last Saturday !! I don't usually do it, but what with the impending car repair bill I decided to have a punt ! Wont quite cover the cost, but I can put it towards it :D:D

    omg i read that as you'd won 6.111 million Lucielle :eek:!! £25 and £6 is better than nothing (which is what I seem to be good at winning lol)

    Mrs P perhaps hubby will find something at the auctions that he loves just as much. Men and cars I find are fickle when they find a better version/bigger engine etc (well mine is anyway!)
