Well done Mr B :T. Get that stuff out of your shed and you'll have your man cave back by summer

Hi Mr B,
began reading your old diary but now can't find it. Anyway, I'm sure I got this off there and I think it might make you smile. I took my penny jar to the self checkout yesterday and had great fun! Not sure others in the queue found it so amusing as I stood there slowly feeding coppers into the chute but it found me about £10 so the disgruntled faces were totally worth it :rotfl:Mortgage Outstanding Nov '16 £142,772.75Mortgage Additional OPs 2017 Target £4522.80/ Actual £865.00GC Feb 0/£2000 -
