Morning All,
Here's my list for today:
* Collect my "free" garden gate I saw advertised at work, our gate is rotten so a free replacement sounds good to me!
* Complete my expenses at work which are around £185, this will go in the pot towards make F&F offers
* List at LEAST 10 items on ebay today, listing on a Thursday so that I get the 2 weekends exposure on my 10 day listings
Think thats all for today.....

I am so cross today. I got letter from council saying that as I started my part time temp job in February they have overpaid me, what about all those months before when my self employment income was pittance and not as much as estimated and they underpaid me!!!! :mad: I need to go there on Monday, I wish I could get my P60, or what ever it is called, from the agency soon.
Anyway not a NSD today as need to go and buy some clothes and shoes for DD. So not too ambitious list today.
Today I have/will:
- Scratchies
- Curly
- Cashback bingo
- Online banking
- Spreadsheets
- All meals from what is in
- Tidy rest of the washing away - all dry, woohoo!
- Do paid dog walking
PS about the Twinks hobnobs, I didn't have enough butter when I was making them so replaced quarter of the amount with some hot water and they were very tasty."Everything will be alright in the end. If it's not alright, it's not the end."

Today I have:
Fay, can you sell plants on ebay? How well do they go? Would it be worth setting up a little table somewhere, or would I need a licence?
QUOTE]
I sell just about anything on ebay plant wise - its great - I wash the soil off my plants and wrap them in a bit kitchen roll (damp) and put them in a bag - then a jiffy bag.
Less cost to post - no potential for diseases to be transmitted through soil etc and I know the plants are healthy.
A wee table would work as well, car boot sales are good - but price it all before you go as plant people seem to get mobbed early on.
Goodluck - I only charge £1 for a couple of plants - or £1.50 for 3 plants - 2.50 for 5 plants - it all adds up.
If you want a look at somethings I sold last year (not much - but enough for my DD's Wii for her birthday ) my ebay name is Orkneyflowers.
Goodluck
:D:D:DYB - Happy birthday
