    I put a whole 2p in my pig. Courtesy of the car park in Sainsburys Woolton (just in case Sparky's lurking around, i think we've bled Woolton dry mate, might take a trip to Crosby and hassle the posh folk down there....)

    Good for you stunty. I bent down to pick up what I thought was a 10p last week and the blasted thing was stuck to the ground. Not a 10p at all, just a flat bit of metal!!! I felt like kicking it! :mad: Ah well, another day. Good to see you stunty.

    Nice to see you too Sue *wafts across on a gentle wave of allure sport, just for Sue*

    I hate it when you think theres cash and it's not. I think Sparky and I have cleared out some of the posher areas of Liverpool for change. Might have to go farther afield!

    How's life treating ya?
