    [QUOTEBTW I forgot to say that I haven't found any roadkill for simply ages. Has sparky moved to Worcestershire and not told anyone? :think:

    I roam the country looking for road change, keep looking over your shoulder because I have been known to rugby tackle people for rogue dropped coinage, so take care

    Hi everyone :wave:

    I'm back, that was a surreal experience! I was kept really busy with the litter and helping the walking wounded (literally!) to the 1st aid tent :rotfl:

    Found about £8 in change, including a fiver, so I popped it into the Walk The Walk pot because it would have felt like stealing to keep it for mine :o

    It was cold when I got there at 6am but turned into a glorious day, hope it stays that way now :)

    Enjoy the rest of your day everyone and keep up the good work :)

    Ps potted £2.52 :)
    Just made some peanut butter cookies from a recipe on the grocery challenge nom nom nom!

    Decided to have another rummage in the dust trap of the dryer again today and found £1.01 :j :j DH walked into the shed to see what I was doing and caught me at it, gave me a bit of a puzzled look but then dragged the dryer out and detatched the hose to have a look in the back of the machine and pulled out another 51p :D:D so £1.52 in dryer kill into the pot today :D:D

    Managed 2 x £1 coins today :j:j:j and I've just spotted a really really really shiney 20p sitting on my little table which I think may just finds its way into my pot. As its really really really is it still only worth 20p - well no one can say I'm not trying :D

    Just realised we aren't far off the half-way mark in our potting year - that's scary :eek:

    Take care everyone

    Evening everyone, Oooooh I am so furious :mad: I dropped and completely smashed the inner glass door from my new cooker, when I was cleaning it today:eek: It went just like a windscreen, a loud bang and then loads of tiny pieces of glass.

    Just had 4 NSDs and been very good with my pot:( Now I have to drum up £52 from somewhere. I knew the 13th spelt trouble.

    Sue-uu How lovely to have grown up in the New Forest. Such a fabulous place. We love it so much and visit as much as possible.

    LC2 Glad you are starting to feel better!

    No pennies in the pot today I'm sorry to say.
