Invest it wisely Peter.Better still,do your patriotic duty,and give it to the Treasury to help bail the country out of the mire.You might even receive a thank you letter from no.10.(probably without a postage stamp,government can't afford one).

Unusual!!
I Once recieved a bill for 11p from a phone contract company. So I walked into the store with the letter and 12p and said they could keep the change!
Always makes me laugh at how it must of cost more than that to send the letter in the first place!

Make now wonder that BT have financial problems - splashing out like that all at once.
Riotous night out for you and your good lady coming on Peter?
