    My aim for next year is £500 and that can go to a nice xmas break in 2009 for me and my loved ones. Well done to all savers:beer: I think i could have dipped into my pig a few times but i feel :cool: YOU WERE ALL WATCHING IT FOR ME:cool: and keeping my grubby fingers away:rolleyes: so i would like to press the big thank you button to you all and good luck for a hard year next time.:T I have tried to save any and every £2 coin i have been given in OCT and nov but oddly enough i have saved £12 in 2 months(thats less than one a week) :confused: i think the whole country are holding onto their £2 coins. Can i have a number for next year please (one thats easy to remember) looking at the clock looks like i could be the first offical one to ask.
    happy new year
    :cool: hard as nails on the internet . wimp in the real world :cool:
