Wow, some amazing amounts being potted already.£1.20 for my pot today but I am reminding myself its a marathon not a sprint so just warming up. I don't remember the last time I had any road kill so must look harder -I will be hump backed from looking down all year for coins - blooming hope I see something. I'm not proud - even 1p would be good.
