    I took out the £15 in notes and spent £9 so the change has gone into my pot; Blue banana had a sale on studded belts. Instead of being £5/£10 they were £2 so I grabbed 2 belts & They had a cool quriky hat for £4 so I grabbed that as well. Then I brought extra Christmas presents and a drink after work which came to £4 then I put some change in a charity tin.

    My total is £9.49 now.

    ......and that's a GOOD thing, Vicky!!! :eek: I dunno....people today! :huh:

    Ah, a misunderstanding. :) I meant the mum would have supported me in wrestling the 20p from her child! :D:D

    The parents in my class are generally VERY supportive of me.

    Hi Everyone

    Going Poland Mon morning will be going past you Sparky about 5 so if you want to wave me off just stand on the corner !!

    DH has the same impression of me as you and Sue I don't want to go to the camps but DH and friends are visiting them so I will be on my own for the day. Now I am not bothered cos plenty of other things to do like shopping!!! but DH has told me not to walk to far from the hotel in case I get lost. Don't chat to everyone like you usually do. Watch where you go when going for something to eat and carry the name of the hotel with you :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    SUE I am sure LC came on and gave us her total last year. might be wrong !!

    Put lots in my pot today!!

    XLC2

    Morning LC2
    Have a great time are you going to Krakow? If you are while everyone else is visiting the camps jump onto one of the little buggies and go to the Oskar Schindler enamel works factory. It's a bit out the way but it's well worth a visit and it's a good way to see how he helped a lot of people. Also while you're there try to visit the salt mines you can arrange the trip from your hotel reception. ;). We're going in July and can't wait to get back there.

    SUE- Did you put that request out on the telly and I missed it :rotfl:

    DRUM-ROLL PLEASE - Tree is now 3 inches high :j

    Ah, but you would have missed it in Scotland, Lynne, wouldn't you? All down to premature devolution I expect, though that's not the normal word that follows premature! :rotfl:;) Behave yourself Sue for goodness sake! :naughty: Well done with the Tree's height...a sign that you 'potted' it well! :rotfl:

    Very well done, ETO, you also ALM! You both did well.

    That's the attitude, Helen! Get yourself some fresh air along with that positivity. A good walk will release endorphins into your brain and make you feel so good about yourself. :D

    You're doing very well, LeopardPrintsAndTea, though beware of sales grabbing your attention too much! ;)
