Good Morning - Friday, December 31st

I don’t like that.I would be very miffed if someone edited one of mine.

@SilverTabby

For some reason my original post was ‘edited’ - will whoever did it at least tell me why!

Did I misspell a word? Put the wrong date? Upset someone?

I don’t mind being edited so long as I why

Absolutely agree, Tabby, and have said the same before.
Apart from the not knowing what’s wrong, I also think its jolly rude to change something and not have the courtesy to send a quick pm and explain why.

I wondered that too Tabby, I’ve just had a look and the only difference I can see is a space has been removed between ‘Friday’ and a comma!

Blimey! Talk about nit-picking!

[SilverTabby]

@Mags - Thank you Mags - will try to keep those rascally commas under control in future!

I would have thought that was too petty to alter, Tabby.

I stock up on the cash books from Wilko. I reckon I have enough somewhere to last me a lifetime.

Got new cash and daily spend books out yesterday, ready. Just about to do online banking, as two pensions go in today, that will cover everything. And if I don’t go out and spend anything today, can start the new yearly cash book.

Yesterday I was like the King in his counting house! I had pots of loose change so have counted all the relevant coins into baggable amounts. Need to collect some cash bags from somewhere. I have £30 that I can deposit into my bank account, made up of 5p, 10p and 20p coins. Brilliant! I sometimes put it into the coin star machines in supermarkets, but you lose a hefty commission doing it that way.

Jazzi

Why don’t you spend it when you go shopping in a large supermarket I do and pop it in the self serve tlll.

[Jazzi]

Gosh no, much more of a surprise counting it all and discovering £30. Too many coins for a till.

There are pedants among us!

As pedant in charge of errant apostrophes, it wasn’t me.

(Though to be honest I have never changed anything but my day will come)

Someone has to keep these rascals in order, Bruce!
