    Taking people to the airport tomorrow morning. They have paid for the petrol with 20 x £2 coins. Yay! Can't wait to get them into my pot.
    One is a Magna Carta coin. One is a Brunel coin. Other 18 are plain.

    Hello Westie983,

    Yes, one of them collects £2 coins and they then use them towards their holiday spending money. I quickly suggested that they paid me with them rather than bank them and give me notes.

    I did a boot fair today, only spent three hours there as I did it by myself. Managed to get 8 x £2 coins. I couldn't believe my luck because one of them was the Welsh commonwealth £2 coin. I also got an abolition of slavery and a Shakespeare crown coin.

    My pot is getting very heavy. I shone a light into it, I am over half full now.

    After another dry spell, landed 3 this week. All plain ones again! Not seen any special ones for a while now :(
    You can have results or excuses, but not both.
