I've never asked in the Netherlands but I've seen dried dung sold in stores for fire sets and all that...

Huge day for me today.
My first day as a trainee solicitor.
17 years after I started my first university.
13 years after I qualified as a teacher (4 year first degree).
8 years after I started studying law.
6 years after I left my last university.
It's taken a long time, hard work, sleepless nights, lots of job changes through the recession, self doubts, tears, frustration and downright hatred (Oh, and a whopping £35k debt that has now been paid off.). I have two particular thoughts today, among others:

1) I'm really grateful for the support I've received over the years from my family and friends, especially my daughter, who has been my absolute rock.

2) In your face. :twisted:

Lastly... Storm girl, EG & R, thank you for being there for me throughout the most of the above journey. You know who you are. :wink:

Can anyone tell me why coins can't be stored in containers? I wanted a bag of money. And treasure chests.

Is it just something that hasn't been thought of yet, or is there a technical reason?

Dibs on one of the black ones! Or the orangish! Or... I want them all! (gotta start rehearsing to become someday a crazy, old, cat lady)
Congrats for the new members of the family!

I want a kitten!
But we have three cats and a dog already.
And the eldest and youngest don't get along with strangers. :P
