The bowling season starts again


Hooray the outdoor bowling season starts again with the annual club opening at the Gala bowling club, good luck this season....
Referring back to my last post the amphitheatre is in Alcudia, northern Majorca (Mallorca) number 1 daughter and I went on Good Friday and had to break in (well climb over a low wall) to see it in its glory.....( Good Friday being a bank holiday in Spain)
Cash collecting continued on holiday with 11p being found in Mallorca, I continue to find at least 1p on average per day...
any way polishing my balls is my next job, so until next time.....

Cash found today


This is a suggestion of my wife who is amazed at my ability to find cash (you know the metal round stuff)

So as from today I will keep a tally of the amounts found:

Today 2p

now this may not sound a lot but on Saturday I found 27p, Sunday 51p and since then nothing

but I am working on the principle of finding a penny a day......

When I reach £5.00 I want to start using the cash to invest in something to make enough to pay for my daughters university education or something like that... any ideas (legal) would be greatly appreciated.....

sorry no photos recently but maybe the one above will keep you laughing ( yes it really was a bath of beans)
