    I would tend to say I'll end it when you have been round to pay in cash and collect it. That way the auction is still running if they don't turn up and if they do then you can end it early using 'item no longer available' option.

    HTH

    Since it has no bids you can add a Buy It Now of £12, then you aremt ending the auction early as such.

    orkney star - what a rude arrogant man. A real man would have apologised!!:mad:

    Just been to mums and helped her with her supermarket shop and did some more time in the garden. I am getting on top of it at last :j :j

    My DS partner is 4 months pregnant and was advised by her doctor to take some time off work to rest following a bleed (all is well now, thankfully). But her employers stopped her money, saying that she wasn't entitled to sick pay as they didn't have her MAT B1 form. Does anyone know if this is allowed? I thought that you were entitled to sick pay if that sickness was related to the pregnancy?:confused::confused: Although it is a long time since I was pregnant and the rules may have changed.

    I would love to have your opinions.

    That is cobblers 'It cannot be issued before the start of the 20th week before the EWC (before September 2001, this was the 14th week). The date of issue is the date it was signed by the doctor or midwife.' copied from HMRC site ;) EWC is estimated date of confinement.

    She is sick, it doesn't matter that it is pregnancy related, they are trying it on simple
