The ways in which one can procrastinate are many and varied, and one evening at approximately 3:30am, I decided I would quite like to be able to get a rough estimate of how much money I have in my 1p jar. To do this, I weighed various pennies individually, and because I couldn't sleep, I did 2ps too.
