    DH emptied his wallet tonight with all his shrapnel. 22p. I found another 14p in one of my going out purses.:j He also gave me £1.40 in 20p coins for the hols shower fund.

    Had another proud mother moment at the weekend when DS got a gold medal with his team mates in the 4 x 100m relays at the Cheshire relays comp on Sat. Bless him as he stood on the podium to have his medal I think he was dreaming of an Olympic gold. Well you never know, one day his dream may come true. He is only 12.;)

    Evening all

    Sending you positive thoughts jakes-mum. It's so hard sorting things like that out and it can seem impossible if you're feeling rubbish.

    Potting a lovely £2 coin from my yoga change :j

    Have a great week everyone

    I'll swap you!! He's already packaged up in a box ready to send, hope you got plenty of money cos he'll have you in every shop/boat yard/caravan showroom/computer shop in the area :D. Your DH and I can sit in the house with a cup of tea and not talk to each other . . . ahh that would be bliss :D

    Hahahaaaaa ...... Mine loves tea and quiet time so he will be well looked after at yours. Will package him up and send him over the weekend :D. Will take yours and rent him out for shopping sprees. The proceeds will go into my pot :rotfl::rotfl:

    Thanks for the number Sue-UU! I've updated my signature I think, hopefully it has worked.

    It is so hot here that I haven't bothered going anywhere where I need to spend money, which is good, but also haven't had any more change for the pot!

    Just sold my sons waterslide on facebook and the lady gave me a lovely £2 coin so swapped it for 2 x £1 (as it was Jakes slide so thought id better give him the money) and popped the £2 coin in my pot :D

    Now wondering what else I could sell . . . is it still too hot to get in the loft :think:
