    Another 60p added. It seems to be fairly easy to collect them.

    I have not been collecting for long but I am afraid I am going to have to stop for now because I need the money. My final total is £22.80.
    Please beleive me when I say I have not given up I shall be back. The truth of the matter is this.
    I do not have any saving and you know that rainy day everyone talks about when my rainy day hit me with the full force of a hurricane.
    Monday my 18 year old daughter Bridget had a blood test. I went with her to our local hospital Tuesday expecting anemia but no we were hit with the full force she has Leukaemia (A.L.L). I took her to London Wednesday and we have had to buy her all new things for the stay. as she has nothing, she has never been ill. Well I do not have a car so the train it has to be. I really need every penny at the moment. But good luck to the rest of you and I'll look in when I can.
    Nature's the perfect recycling machine:D but sometimes she needs a helping hand:grouphug:

    Thank you. My daughter has always kept herself to herself. So if you do not mind I am copying and pasting all messages for her to read herself:smiley:
