No problem about you not checking, sparky, it's all part of my day..and I really enjoy it. I also have leave a message for others underneath so am happy to do it myself.
Hey, and you wonder why everyone thinks you're a girl when you typed you're going to be working for "DH and I"?! Christmas is getting to you, sparks, or the thought of all that free time is! 
Trust us to both notice it, Kerfuffle! :A:A
You're welcome, Raspberrysauce, I look forward to hearing from you later. If you do get a tin, be sure to use a knife on it next year so you don't need to buy another!!!
Hiya LAM, well done with keeping to the £18 rather than £20, it really does soon make a difference. Likewise with the £10..you'd forgotten it so it made sense to pot it! :TFlip1 wrote:Going for a walk this afternoon to try and get rid of DS1 and DS2 energy.
Amazing how much they fail to burn off when they're not at school, Flip. Brilliant about the £3.50 though why doesn't poor Percy ever get fed???!
I'm glad you're starting to feel better jakes-mum, amazing things antibiotics. You'll be happy you've got your locks done now.
Well done, quintwins and at least you've gained by not spending for a little while.
9p roadkill in the pot for me. The next door neighbours got a new suite delivered yesterday and when taking the old one off to the dump.....they scattered pennies around out of it!!!!!:j This morning she said "where are all the pennies coming from? Then twigged - BUT - still didn't pick them up!!! :eek:Whatever it it with folk?! Talk about laziness well carried out.

Just potted two five pound notes I got £110 birthday money so I thought the extra £10 would sit well in the sealed pot. Woohoo! :heartsmil Stay-at-home-mummy of two, pinching the pennies but loving it! :heartsmil
