Hi all, I've not posted on the thread for a while, but pot is filling up slowly. I don't often use cash, don't often have change, but people in work know I collect coppers & the like, so give me all their shrapnel, I made 21p last night

No, I was expecting a terrimundi from my brother for Christmas, so at the moment I've got a 'temporary' sealed pot.
But I didn't get one
I'm hoping he's tricked me and will be giving me a terrimundi for my birthday next week, but I'm not sure.
If not I will buy myself one, using my birthday money from my mum. But I really hope my brother is just teasing me!

Put the feet on as soon as possible - I cellotape everything in place before starting with the papier mache, makes it easier to keep everything in place. I leave ears and tails until last :beer: Good luck and have fun I reserve the right not to spend.
The less I spend, the more I can afford.
