  • Well Mrc C,

    Am nearly at a point where I might list some things on ebay tomorrow. I've got lots of junk from son's life going right back to babydom and the woolworths stuff I bought in the sales. I don't think I like actually listing yet but will see how it goes. What I do like the idea of is having a shop!!! Listing pretty things and sitting back while the sales pour in!!! :rotfl:
  • Oh meant to say, It's been lovely and sunny today in Edinburgh after a soft sprinkle of snow this morning.
