    sammiell, things like Monsoon, Next etc especially new usually sell well. Lesser known brands I would put as a job lot. Worth getting something back in my opinion. You can use the 'Advanced Search' and click on 'Completed Listings' to see what things have sold for in the past.
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:

    Virtual Candle lit.

    DD's room now has a shelving unit in it filled with all her games and jigsaws:D This has cleared a shelf in the livingroom on the bookcase so I now have somewhere to put all my boxfiles instead of ontop of the bookcase where I keep knocking stuff off onto my head when I try to get them down :o

    Wash load one is in :o but DD is bathed and her bed is made. I've made my bed up as well so some slight progress made today. Now I need to go and get DD sorted for bed. :wave:

    Good evening all, have been out most of the day and totally failed on the flying front for the last few days, out again tomorrow so will start afresh on Monday.
    Wanted to sat well done to soappie, the floor is looking great, have only skim read the thread and noticed the photos, so (((((hugs))))) for everyone else who may be needing them and an extra special (((((hug))))) for diva and tristan, will say a prayer for him and be thinking of you at church in the morning.
    Going to chill out on the sofa(which needs hoovering) and contemplate cleaning the car tomorrow PM, will pop in during the ads...........

    OOOOOHH, bought another lottery lucky dip today so will have my fingers crossed when they do the draw!!!!!!!!!

    hmm greenbee, could it be that you somehow don't like spiders?!?!? :rolleyes:
    Can't think how you got that impression :o

    soappie - it was brave of you to try. I've got a manual tile cutter if you can wait for it to be posted (somehow I doubt it :rolleyes: )

    SS - pheasant is best pot-roasted or casseroled, as otherwise it can be very dry (all that outdoor living means they don't have much fat on them). If you have some myrtle leaves or juniper berries, those go well. If you're roasting/pot roasting shove and onion or apple up its bum rather than stuffing it, and put carrots, parsnips, potatoes etc round it. I hope you find a way to manage the things you need to do to act on your decisions - you know we're here if you need us.

    embb - hope you resolve the reason for your rant

    Haven't got much done upstairs... cleaned a couple of shelves in the bathroom (as they weren't that dirty...) and then wrapped presents for the Christening tomorrow (this includes Christmas presents for mum & baby as they were out of the country for Christmas and I haven't seen them since!).

    Supper cooking, and think I might watch a DVD before [STRIKE]sorting out my sleep DVD and going to bed[/STRIKE] packing up all the summer clothes that I have left on my bed and putting away the clean underwear :o I'd forgotten about that :rotfl:

    Thank you Honey Bear
  • Thanks GB I'm sure everything will turn out fine in the end. Sorry to be enigmatic!
    Pheasant... so would the SC be a good option perhaps? I do have juniper berries, but have had a tendency to overuse them :rolleyes: But maybe onion, apple and juniper in a veg type stock??? :confused:
