That’s expensive!

Neighbour was saying that some parents pay £5, but that is expensive and requires a note.

Some pay £2 - we also have a £2 coin, but they’re not as common as the £1 coin.

Using a £1 coin is simpler... hence the lack of inflation since my kids lost their teeth.

With contactless payment increasingly replacing cash in Europe, it makes you wonder how the tooth fairy will cope in future!

Moms going to have to say that the tooth fairy deposited the money into her account. Or put a proof of payment under the pillow [emoji23] [emoji23]

I just had a business idea. Set up business as Tooth Fairy.

Parents pay you to do the transfer so it comes from the Tooth Fairy account rather than the parent's account

Then you can have a letter that gets emailed from the tooth fairy to be put under the pillow instead.

Deal. It is not a bad idea at all you know. With some advertising worded carefully so as not to give the game away. It could actually work. What would be the service fee?

I'll consult my accountant. Good job I married one!

I am sure that nowadays young kids have bank accounts. And if they don't, it would create a learning experience about banking and saving money etc.

I'll do some research on the viability of the idea. We could charge a 15% fee of the amount being eft'd plus bank transfer fee. And Have a really nice letter written out with with glitter and sparkles signed by the Tooth fairy. Saying something like thank you for your precious tooth, it will be going up in the east or west wing of the castle. And to remember to look after your other teeth and brush them twice a day etc etc.

Our advertising could go something like this: The Tooth Fairy is going electronic. Send us an email if you want us to EFT your payment for your tooth into your kids bank account. Easy peasy no fuss toothy !!

So far nothing like that is coming up in google. Only sweet tooth fairy franchise which is a bakery.

Well it is a good night sleep tight and sweet dreams from me. Not chat until tomorrow.

And petrol costs around R15.79/ ltr and a 5ltr bottled water costs R21.00 so R4.20/ ltr.

I never buy bottled water on principle and because they charge so much. I just fill a bottle from my tap when I need it.
In fact I've stopped buying single use plastic bottles in my effort to help save the planet.
Sometimes it's not possible though as there's no alternative.

For £5 a time I wouldn't have had any teeth left by the time I was 10 - baby or permanent !!

I was longer than I expected at the shop as an elderly lady passed me in her car and she had a flat tyre.
I saw where she parked so I could make sure she knew and it turned out she was completely deaf.
So I rang the RAC (emergency service for cars) for her and they disappointingly left me hanging on for over 10 mins listening to music!
Another lady spotted her and came over . I thought she was a signer who could help - turns out she was deaf too!
She text the RAC on her phone and explained the lady was deaf but again no response.
Anyway the lady didn't have a spare tyre in her car or I could have changed it for her and it had shredded so couldn't just be inflated.
She then text someone at the garage she uses on her own phone who was on the way when I went into the shop. As I left I went to check she was OK and the mechanic pulled up; hopefully he brought a spare and sorted her out.
So that was my good deed for today, not that I was actually much help!

Anyway I'd better get off to beddy byes too.
So Happy Thursday everyone, not see you soon.
Nos Da!

I've got about 8 or 10 large garbage bags of flattened plastic bottles waiting to be taken to the recycling center. If I don't do it pretty soon my truck isn't going to fit in the garage.

Well done. That was a nice thing to do.
