  • Hey all, thanks for the good wishes,

    Im off to the bank at lunch so that i can get the money in my account and in a much more useful place.

    It is a shock, i never dreamed it would happen this way, but ive got loads of support in the real world and on here so im doing ok.

    Puzzled

    p.s. put all the loose 2's and 1's back into my new pot and im starting again for next year but im determined im going to keep going until its full.

    PrincessPeach, though PP how can you keep all that money as a ruddy doorstop, I'd be terrified someone'd nick it!!! :eek:

    It's the doorstop to my bedroom door and so heavy that noone would want to take it. :rolleyes:

    Its now just full of odd forgien coins and buttons :D

    I might well have to give it to someone else to look after, its getting so tempting to open, i need £60 to be debt free and knowing i have £60 in it is not helping put i have last nearly 10 months, i know i shouldn't give in and miss the fun on 1st Dec :o

    I am really sorry..........................

    The bomb exploded :o

    But you will all be pleased to know it had £256 pound in it :j Over £200 was £2 coins.

    I was trying to shake £60 out but along came OH with a hammer......

    So tomorrow i am going to bank the cash and Monday call Northern Rock to clear my loan and put rest in my ISA.

    And i will be buying a sealed tin from poundland or similar to start again until Dec 1st.

    Please don't hate me! :o

    EDIT: Just counted and there was £222 worth of £2 coins, so it must be fate, or so OH says.
