    Morning All,

    It's amazing to see such lovely big PADs taking place redkelly and jet - very inspiring!

    The total for the 20th February 2017 was a very impressive £529.93!

    And congratulations Kirtsypoos, I can't wait to get a regular income again and start being able to PAD etc.

    And Sashybo - we can always self-gift cool points to ourselves lol, my son cringes with embarrassment all the time, so I'm sure I'm pretty much in a financial and cool deficit :rotfl:

    Have a good day everyone,

    Keedie,
    xx

    Thanks Erme! A Dancing llama is the icing on my milestone cake :D

    It's sashy with the lovely bump at the moment...although once I'm at 100% paid I hope it will be me too :D
