Just a quick post as have to go and tidy up dd's room, it's a pig sty and as is normal they each blame each other and don't tidy it. I said to my youngest dd how can you sleep in this mess it's disgusting her reply was i just turn my back to it and face the wall it's fine !!.
Oh that soooo brought back memories of my daughter. The one who shouts at her children for being untidy :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:sparky0107 wrote: »Afternoon everyone

Hello
About £15 added to the pot tonight. Emptied out a piggy that I'd been putting change in all last year. Hubby and I decided to put anything 10p or over into the pot and we're going to cash in everything 5p and below to treat the kids this weekend. :TSealed Pot Member ~ 1967

Luckycharlie, sounds like a typical man, really ill when it suits and fresh air will do me good when it's fishing time !!.Well done with helping yourself to the tenner, you deserve it. My dd is 9 and I was surprised with her response especially when she replied straight away as quick as you like.
Sue, here's hoping, told oh when he got home about the £2.00, he then unziped his trouser pocket and handed me £5.60 in change, I said where did you get that from, he said a man I thought somebody had given him a tip as he's a lorry driver and it has a hiab, but no he said he bought the newspaper and that's all the change he got. I said is that for my pot and he said yes or give it back, ran up the stairs and potted it straight away,yay.
It's still raining here though it's getting colder, it's suppose to snow here tomorrow though the kids are saying Monday so we'll see who's right. Oh brother due soon . Take care everyone.0 -

Hiya sparky, so they've let you out at last!!! I'll bet you could have swore when you lost that post, that happened to me (a huge one) on tother thread last night...I simply said "Oh dear" and a load more! :mad: Some good savings.
Have a wonderful day, mossy.....and come back with plenty of cash!No potting today although I DID walk into town but then realised tomorrow is pocket money day so I need the change!
However, last night I got a bonus £1, so straight in the pot!
That's not bad, Barbed, at least you didn't waste any on the bus! You did good!!! :T
Well done, Mini Zoo, and I love your thinking for the weekend. Be happy!
Don't ask question, just trying, just snatch and run it all to the pot!!!!! :j
Oh dear, LC 2, you do have your problems with him, a good fisher for excuses though eh! :rotfl:
Brilliant savings, Mel, you do so well.

Hi moneymanager! There's never any need to re-join, once on the list that's where your name stays and I simply swap the list over to the new thread each year.

All best wishes!Sue x
