Well [EMAIL="I@d"]I'd[/EMAIL] better start making a new Piggy ready for 2nd Dec. Hopefully I will hit my target this year of £200 =- got about £40 to go but not sure how much is in Spot. I was going to use Pete the Penguin but I don;t think he is balanced enough !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hope you all have a good day0 -
Greenbynature it's so good that you've been saving with us all that time. It's also great to see you'll have money for your DS's 21st. As to suggestions for a prezzie for him :think: ummmm ...how about a 20 year old girl!!!!! Bet he'd love one of them! :kisses2:

Hi Sue-UU Don't think my son's girlfriend would be impressed with the idea of a 20 year old girl :rotfl: :rotfl:
And I will definitely be joining on the 2nd Dec! Can't wait to open my tin now as it's pretty heavy, on the side of the tin it says it holds £500 or more in £2s and £1s and that's what I've mostly been putting in and the odd £5 note here and there , don't think it'll contain £500 but will be happy with whatever's in there as it's money that I wouldn't have had

I still have penny the penguin, so that's my next target if Phil the Pig doesn't survive his operation. :rotfl: I'll be glad if I meet my £100 and will certainly be taking part again next year, even though I hardly ever get the time to keep up with the chat in here.Life is just so challenging but at least it's making me feel richer! :rotfl:
