AAARGH! Don't you just hate it when people don't read the rules on your ebay listing?

I listed something and said 'you must be paypal verified and/or have more than 10 feedback else I will refund your payment' so some stupid person with no feedback and an unconfirmed email and home address, bought the item . I have refunded their payment and have a feeling they will leave me negative feedback. Grrrrrrr!

ETA: congratulations lilmissmup! I love the name, too

Oh no, now I have a different buyer claiming that they haven't received an item that they bought from me! I have a feeling this is going to be one of *those* awful days... sigh.

Oh Cl I hate it when you get an Ebay run like that! The last three weeks have been the first time this year I haven;t had anything listed. The fees are too high for me to bother wasting my time at the mo. I think I'll either wait until nearer xmas or after xmas before I list more, unless I get desperate lol.

I've spend most of the morning lookat at wedding venues and getting prices. When I seem to get a price where I think it's manageable then I think of other bits I need lol.

Afternoon all,

Wow times fly's Lilmiss! Seems just like a couple of months ago when you said they were expecting! Big congrats!

One more sleep MM! How exciting for you!

YB - Weddings there so much to do! You'll get it sorted.

Again something esle has happened to make me think life is much too short to be stressing about saving,saving,saving.
Today my cousin's husband got up this moring and asked my cousin to call the doctor out as he didnt feel well. Straight after he said it he dropped down and died!! Nobody knows what of yet. i hadnt met him before but he was only 31! Now my cousin has 5 children to bring up with no dad.

oh my god maria that is so sad it is so true life it to short and we need to enjoy it but i do belive the best things in life are free... sunday afternoon and a dd took the dog for a wlk to the highest point in the mendips!! we were on top of the world it was so nice up there.. i also feel the same about the beach it is getting the balance right between saving and spending!!

make the most of every minute of everyday coz you never know what is coming!!

mariagti

Totally, keeping saving but dont forget to have fun too and do whatever you want before its too late.

On the up side, i took mobile to 02 shop and they had details of my purchase so didnt need the reciept! But 02 only do a 12 month warranty. and mines 13 months old! But as ive got an 18 month contract they are fixing it free of charge...which is a huge relief!

jenjade

well done on getting the phone fixed for free!! i hate paying for things like repairs and bills!!

mariagti

thanks, im in a much better mood knowing i havent got to buy a new phone!

I like the beach too and walking in the countryside its so calming and relaxing.
