Don't forget to sponsor Gill in the London marathon - the money is for a good cause (great cause actually). If you drink just think of it as the price of a few beers or a few peach martinis. If you smoke donate the price of a day's ciggies. If you work how about an hour's pay and if you drive how about a couple of gallons of petrol. The Children's Society do some amazing things for people who need stuf and help far more than most of us - go on, you know it makes sense and the more good you do in life the more good you get back.

10 careful considerations:
She's not having my cigs and I can't spare the petrol - I'll give her my child's pocket money.
You give your child pocket money??? What's wrong with the workhouse?
I never got any pocket money when I was a kid. All I got was my school bus fare but I managed to save it by walking there and back every day.
I could usually talk my parents out of half a crown if I really wanted something. :-)
Half a crown? Luxury. I'd be lucky to get a farthing and a good hiding...:-)
Try tell that to the kids of today and they wouldn't believe yer. :-)
I got 3d. Remember them?
Do you think Gill would take €s :-)
The threepenny coin was the best.
Was the 3d the one with the "thrift" flowers on the back? I remember my aunty breaking her dentures on one of those in a Christmas pudding...
Were you poor Methel? We had sixpence pieces in our Christmas pudding. :-))))))))
guess we must have been....sigh...such a long time ago now though - hard to remember that far back ;-)
