Great news about Christmas in America, mossy, a whole lot to look forward to this year! Shame about the CC, but.........
So it still goes on then, sparky, I really do sympathise with you both and hope one day that the police will too!! Looking forward to seeing the modified scooter, keep focused on that and I hope J can do the same with something she loves doing.

Well done for your DD! 
As ever, Kerry......very well done!

Just don't let dreams become reality, Untouchable! Well done for your DD!
Noooo! I'm determined to not break them open! Hopefully I will be rolling in coins though
DD found 10c today and I added $3, this fortnight was tough to add money to, though I think I am doing okay for the most part! Not sure if I will get more than $500 but its still better than nothing! Current tally stands at around $180 at least.Sealed Pot Challenger #2080 2013

I don't know how you get one sparky but wouldn't it be a lovely birthday present? Hopefully rosyq will provide the details later. Hope you're having a great birthday :beer:
Anyhoo....potted a crisp £10 note today from the holding piggy. Fingers crossed for lots of shrapnel while I'm on holiday from now till the middle of July! :ASPC Member #112 :A Save £2k in 2014 # 160 :money:0
