    One thing to add to that, RedGoose, is that it's only ever the female ones that bite, so always keep a look out and if you can see dangly bits you're ok...if not...head for them there hills FAST!!!!! :eek:

    Be careful, little_sweetie, I've got my eye on you, tothers too.

    What're you laughing at, Sam??! :angry:

    HI Lynnsey30 and Jennypennysaver

    Welcome to SPC5 Sue is our boss and her word is law Sparky is our counter upper so he is held in high reverence by us all :rotfl::rotfl:

    Please ignore what you hear about myself and Jakes-Mum we

    are probably the best behaved on here!! And I am NOT NUTS!!!!

    I can't prove this but Jakes-mum will vouch for me :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
    I think Sparky might be going through his second childhood as he taken to telling us schoolboy jokes that he then tries to blame other people for telling them to him as if!!!

    :A

    Anyway as soon as you get your number from Sue you will belong to us for life :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Enjoy

    Of course it's ok, lynnsey, paying the bills with it sounds very wise to me. :grinheart

    No Lost, tis ok, it's only a little rain to settle the dust...then pour down tomorrow; in other words - haven't a clue! :( If it's owt like the previous 2 or 3 then you're possibly right - summer's gone...:cry: Tell you what though....tis beautiful down here! :j

    suzitiger, you don't need to write your No each time you post as I can see them all under the relevant signatures. Well done with your savings, you're doing so well.

    You couldn't be more correct, nanto3girls, saving this way is so addictive; wherever I go I'm looking at the floor/ground. Still, it pays off. :D

    By the time you get a magnifying glass to check it's 'wossnames', RedGoose, it'll probably not have any, be a female and have had you! :rotfl:

    No comment to you, LC 2, though if you'd said - Please ignore what you hear from myself and jakes-Mum I'd have been cheering you. :rotfl:


    I take back all I said, Lost, it's getting very cloudy here, probably getting ready for tomorrow.
    Enjoy the rest of your day, people, your evening too.

  • Hi & thanks for the warm welcome :D

    I'm starting off my pot with £2.69 which I've collected around the house and out of the washing machine over the last few weeks!! I'm still not sure what to save towards...clearing debts :eek: or Christmas (3 kiddywinks to buy for!!)...??
