    Good luck beanielou! I've not done much MS today so will have to go find some surveys in a bit. Feeling inspired to have a wardrobe clear out and hopefully stick some of it on ebay...

    The way the ebay/paypal fees are going etc I don't know that I'll keep doing it much longer either but it's always a few more pounds each month I suppose. if you fancy a go at it just let me know and I'll give you a hand if needed!
