    I have seen this another post

    EXCHANGING PERSONAL DETAILS


    For legal reasons I have to discourage swapping, buying and selling on the forum (please see this rule). While it can be a very useful way of saving money it relies on a certain amount of trust between members and as such can cause problems (and has in the past). If you have any questions about this policy please email !!!!!!.

    Do you not have a 'freecycle' operating near you?

    Look Here

    Women and cats will do as they please, and men and dogs should relax and get used to the idea.

    Freecycle (as per Rizla's post) is a good idea, also try:

    Cleaning the house while children are growing is like shovelling snow when it's still snowing!
