    Of course you can join us, LeaLea89. A very warm welcome to you. biggrin.gif Have fun saving and enjoy the banter. You'll find your number at the bottom of the list on post 5 of page 1. Please read through post 1 as it'll let you know exactly what to do with the challenge.


    *Please pop your numbers on your sigs, it really helps.

    Sue you havent missed anything but £2 pound coins go in a separate pot and so do 50p then at the end of the month I pay them to the credit card! I would prefer to pot all coins but I need to get shot of the barc1ay card first

    I see, getting-there-slowly, in that case could you make sure you put the amount banked on your siggy for me please? Thanks a lot.

    So pleased your little darling's much better, mossy, rotten when they're so rough.

    I see you're not at all fussy re cars then, Ruth! :whistle: I'd hate white, gawdy red, yellow or light blue, see I'm not fussy either. :rotfl:

    BTW, I've got GERD and need daily pills for my stomach so you can imagine the havoc it played with me! :undecided

    Many commiserations on your loss, blondy.

    Very well done, haybel!!! :j

    I LOVE ugly cars :D (that's a compliment honest). I'm looking for a Peuge0t 206 GTi but i am very picky...... for example, if the car is red then it HAS to have silver surround for the break light. If its blue i would like it to be silver but its not too bad if they're red. Under no circumstances will i buy a silver car, black is a very last resort colour oh and it HAS to be diesel....... my poor dad is trying to help me look but i just have too many criteria for him to remember...... in short, there is 1 on the whole of the internet but the man lied to my dad about the price he would give for mine so mum said i shouldn't buy it out of principle........

    rant over :)

    :rotfl:
    I was a tad picky myself - she had to be less than £x, less than n years old, and yellow :D
    The 3rd garage I went into didn't look at me pityingly, and found me what I wanted :D
    The first 2 lost a sale!!
