    Hi,

    Although not a part of the challenge I do have my change tin and have been socking away cash since Christmas. I feel I must come here to confess that I nearly opened it this morning after I convinced myself I needed £30 to go out this afternoon. Luckily I had a cup of tea and the urge passed! My trip to the Manchester Christmas market is still safe :-)

    Thinking about how close I was to getting the tin opener out this morning I think it might be a good idea for me to become a fully signed up subscriber to the thread... :T
  • Sign up for the insanity Alec, you won't regret it! and step away from the tin. Thats it.............. put it down gently and return the can opened to the drawer............
