my parents split up when i was about 2, but i used to visit my dad during the school holidays. Between visits dad used to put all his small change in an old cookie tin so that when i came to stay i would have some pocket money. It usually amounted to about $100...I belived my dad was really, really rich!
lets hope hes got another BIG tin put away somewhere for my wedding!
