    Blimey - going some on there Chicky! (and what happened re the Eb*y sale?!)

    and humph to the facebook stuff - a drunken driver speeding means I am now disabled.

    i don't think she was drunk (but i wouldn't put it past her).

    I just replied with:
    I'm not rising to an argument over this, and this is the last I will say on the matter. But I am absolutely fuming that you joke so lightheardly over it.
    what if (for example) some debris had been in your way - you wouldn't have seen it - couldn't have stopped in time - hit the central reservation and (worst case scenario) killed yourself leaving your children without a mother?
    You say it wouldn't happen - it can and does perfectly easily. But it's ok, you little ones will be consolidated by the fact it was lunchtime and the roads were clear. and after all it was only 12 MPH over the limit.

    she still claims she doesn't care and that it is purely my opinion. It makes my blood boil tho.

    welll it has sold...........and I have messaged to ask when they want to collect.............but as yet no respose..........to either sale.

    I have a feeling it won't be collected as she bid farrrr more then I was expecting (the other week listed it (with all extras at £5 buy it now and it went unsold).
    stripped it down and listed the extras seperatly..............she's won for £18!!! :rotfl::rotfl:

    well it doesn't look like the 2nd bidder wants the carrycot either (2h left for them to accept) and no contact from them. not even a decline.

    emailed the 3rd bidder to ask if they would still be interested..............nothing from them either.

    WHY WHY WHY do people enjoy wasting others time????!!!!!
    Will be reporting them ALL to ebay.
