    That's a nice idea @Lou67 educational too!! Don't try and spend it in a real shop :D 

    When my Mum went to Africa she came back with some coins, one of which is identical in size and shape to a 50p coin, but is worth about 2p, I managed to use a few in the UK as 50ps by accident in a shop once but didn't do it on purpose lol

    @66Mustang
    Oh yes she absolutely loves it, giving us all our change, then asks for it back 😂

    Nice one with the 50p lol 
    I have a 50p that is supposedly rare,  one was sold for a lot off money. I wouldn’t know were to start, my son says eBay but I think there’s a lot on there already lol

    A curtain pole because my bedroom window in my new house is almost 4 metres wide :o
    That's nearly the length of my living room

    Yes, that's a little shorter than my current living room.

    It's 376 cms and only 114cms for the length. Bigger windows are nice because it lets in a lot of light but this window was a nightmare to find a curtain pole for. 

    Then even worse to find curtains to fit without spending about £350 for made to measure. In the end i bought 2 pairs of smaller curtains to cut the cost drastically. I'm not paying all that money for bedroom curtains.

    I’ve just got a wall shower seat, which hubby will fit for me, so I can at least shower without falling over 😁

    I thought mine was large at 3m & 130cm drop. It is lovely for light though & I don't have curtains, I just put up a net when it gets cold, like now. Actually, I was going to have poppy design but then went for dandelion clocks. 


    Back on thread, today I ordered an electric wheelchair cover.

    I don't know about the price? They tend to keep them roughly the same when they announce a new one, unless there is a big increase in production costs, but you might well be right.

    I joined the dark side in 2010 and haven't looked back since, had about 7 Macs since then and numerous iPads and iPhones and goodness knows whatever else.

    If it helps I have a M2 MacBook Air and it's faster than a thin little laptop has any right to be. It blows my old desktop out of the water and that's only 6 years old. I don't think you will be disappointed!!!!

    Anyone wanna buy a windows 11 laptop...........LOL.......
    Ha ha :)

    Apple will let you trade it in but they will give you like £0.05 in the pound. Probably better off selling it on eBay or similar.

    Pens, coffee pods and milk but I only had to put a fiver towards it. As I volunteer for a children's rights organisation and they gave me a amazon gift card for saying thanks for all the hard work we as volunteers do

    I was looking at this watch as i have high blood pressure and and keep an eye on it using a monitor,does the watch monitor blood pressure?

    Edit:  I've just googled it and it doesn't monitor blood pressure!
    No it measures beats per minute and has an ECG function. Also capable of measuring temp at the wrist too
