    Wow! This is fantastic! Where do you get the stuff you sell, Benben? Is it ex-clutter, or do you buy it to sell on?

    Just checked my Paypal account and have £91 in there, very nice! Mind you, I have added all the sales onto my summer challenge sig, but just nice to see the money in an account. I still have about 20 things listed so wont withdraw the money yet. It's annoying you can't withdraw less than £50 - I'm sure it didn't used to be like that? I think the stuff I have on there now is a bit rubbishy, but we'll see. The item on the highest price is G's so she's keeping the money, she's wanting to sell loads to make money to buy herself a camera.
    I really need to sort out a new signature!

    Oh wow that's fab - look how much you've knocked off!!!
    I don't want to go back to work already - and we've still got just under 4 weeks to go haha. I'm getting used to going to bed at 12, up at 9, spending way too much time online etc. And I sooooo need to pull my finger out and finish the nvq, it's starting to scare me now that I've not cracked on it:eek:

    I must start paying extra towards the loan tho - I keep just merrily making money on ebay/amzon then stashing it!!! Nice to watch some savings go up for once....;)

    I can't view my mortgage online KC, I chuck the figures into a mortgage calculator to see how it affects it. If you use an amortization mortgage calculator it shows you a monthly breakdown of your mortgage payments ;):D
