Ooh, not sure. I've put stuff on there and asked, but try it anyway, they can only send you an email knocking you back, and if they do, put something that you don't want on there - people come round for loads of different stuff so good way to get rid of a few bits...

EDIT: I like to offer stuff anyway as superstitious - I think if you offer stuff you can always get stuff, - karma and all that...

Thanks flower - I hadnt thought of it that way!!

Evening ladies, where has the day gone?

I love September best of all when the weather is like it was today.

Kindles your day sounds so much like ours, DS3 got his medal, kids at sport.

Kids have been good as have had two activities each on (DS1 still on the golf course).

I done chores at two lots of shops. Treated myself to a new skirt and thermal chami and I've brought a bread tin to have a go at making bread.

Did a bit in the garden and am so hoping it is nice tomorrow afternoon so I can do a bit more.

Toots - I am trying to put 5 items on ebay every week. I've done one of this weeks so far so want to do 4 more tomorrow. I can only cope with the idea of getting 5 items ready and to the post office. 3 of last weeks items have bids so will sell and all bar one has watchers.

Soappie I am going to order the certificates on Monday and get a file to keep the paper notes in THANK YOU AGAIN FOR ALL YOUR HELP.

Yes I've just started doing it in the last few weeks and Soappie is kindly helping me out.

I know Pink is doing some too. It is great fun, my heart was racing when I found a record online last week but it is time consuming.

Pooh I hope your son is recovering well. Did you get anytime to read the book?

Kaz - X factor is on at 7:30 can you stick her in front of that

Toots - I struggle with meal planning, have to force myself to do it but am always glad when I do. This thread might give you a few ideas:

Well I didnt get as much sleep as I wanted today.

Dd rang to say GS1 had sold his dog and it was going tomorrow.

Now Im not keen on dogs but I love his big Staffie. When I am there it sits by me all the time. So out of bed I got and then went to say bye to it.

Tonight Ive done a load of printing for DD.

Tidied living room.
Done the dailies.

Toots when Freecycle became a registered charity they had to stop asking for people to offer first IIRC, it was just before I got more involved but I am sure sites have had to take that off their rules

Just feeding kids junky takeaway sorry, lazy but I feel ill tonight, they had HM bread for lunch and other more healthy stuff so not going to make myself feel too bad about a pineapple and sweetcorn pizza. Did tell them I'd take them over the club house but with a booming headache, think pain relief first and see how I feel. I nearly went home an hour ago because I feel so rotten but then thought I would only have the same, if not more, to do at home....

Done some of my sorting out in the caravn, we have about 15 or so cupboards which have been 'dumped in' over the summer, had a good dig through 6 of them, pile of stuff to go home and a load for the bin!

Good for you Dusty - do fits and starts - I have 41 things on just now! and its just adrop in the ocean!! - I used to do 5 a day every day and was doing very well - so well that one of my nice friends asked if I could sell some stuff for her and of course I couldnt / dont know how to say 'no'!!! and then there is my elderly friend - she has been clearing out and I have been selling for her - and I sell for a male friend who needs help - of course it would help if I stopped buying wee bits in the charity shops to sell but cant help it its my passion!!! Although I have stopped going to the auctions - have said I wont go again until after Christmas and I hope by then will have cleared some of the backlog!!!
