Hi
My new total is £17.32

I'm sure i'll get there in the end.0 -
This may be a daft question, I was going to leave my tin filling up until Christmas, but now I'm doing a boot fair on Sunday, please can I "borrow" the small change and use it?
Shall I promise to put all my takings back into the tin, would [STRIKE]stealing[/STRIKE] borrowing the money then be acceptable?
