    Not bad for nothing! Straight in the pot...

    Hello everyone :D...

    Its sounds like jakes-mum and LC have met my Mam :rotfl: :D :rotfl:. Here kids, have some sugar, have something sugary in a different colour, and have something cunningly disguised as good, that has a ton of sugar inside it :eek:. It's a triple stacked battery pack, for hyperactivity :rotfl: :eek: :rotfl:. Then she sits and smiles while the pinball themselves all over the park, beach, house etc., etc., etc. It's okay though, I'm going to return the favour one day, when she offers to baby sit them. 'Here kids, eat this, it's nice, it's called a Kendal Mint Cake. Mmmm, yummy, yum, yum :p :rotfl: :p.

    Found my first washing machine roadkill today, so it's went straight into the pot :A :D :A.

    Hope you've all had a good day potting :beer:.

    Me too I can't believe how excited I get at the thought of getting money to put in my pot:D:D

    I also think that having the support of the thread and the banter most certainly helps when it comes to wanting to be committed - I think I have saved so much more money that I would have really just frittered away prior to joining the group - I'm intrigued to know what's in my pot already but the beauty of the sealing means we have to be patient and wait:mad: roll on 27th Nov 14 :
