    Hi, just seen this challenge and wondered if I could join in please? I don't really have a goal but have a huge sealed tin that I have just emptied about £10 into. I am aiming to save 50p, 20p and 10p in this one as I already have one for £1. I really need to get rid of my credit card debt this year and to do this I need to average a payment of £400 a month to my cards, so am hoping to get involved with lots of challenges to do this.

    Surfbabe... Penny the Penguin is leaping up and down for joy, she is sooooo excited about your revelation... PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE satisfy her curiosity by telling her how to 'poink' before I damp her down with a hosepipe til she's soggy :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    Back again... Phil says it's an abbreviation for Piggy's go Oink (POINK) and is now rattling at the penguin trying to find out what noise they normally make. Does anyone know what noise a penguin makes??? :confused: Oh, and does anyone know what a group of pigs is called?? Is it a herd? A flock? Questions, questions, questions, such an inquisitive pig!
