    i erm used a knife sharpener to get in the hole where ya money goes lmaooooo coz my tin opener wouldnt open it lmaoooooooooooooooooooo

    Mumzy! You are so naughty!! I think you should be punished severely and suggest the following... transfer £100 from your pot straight to paying off a small debt (it's VERY MSE!) and then seal up the hole and start again :D We won't tell anyone else so long as you promise to pay it towards a debt :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:
    I reserve the right not to spend.
    The less I spend, the more I can afford.
