Well done everyone.
New carpet fitted yesterday and looks fab. Just need to sort the rest of the house now!:rotfl:
£4.21 potted today. £2 for yesterday and £2 for today. Found 1p on bedroom floor and 20p on hubby's computer table. Both safely put in the pot.:T
Jakes mum that is amazing that money is coming out of you like that. Roll on the paper kind. When that happens let me know your secret.:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
Need to get motivated to go to M & S, then all done.
