    Ebay finishes in about half an hour - up to £41 so not bad at all!

    £41.12 - that will do nicely! It all helps in the big scheme of things! I will put some more on in the next few days.....I have got a few biggish things that I could put on that would create a bit of space, even if they don't raise a huge amount of money!

    I think I need to have an ebayfest weekend.......get the kids involved etc as it all helps pay for their activities......I think I will allocate two weeks in the summer hols (less skiing then to get in the way too!). So one weekend to get everything together and list it - a week for the bids to come flooding in, and for the stuff to get in the way in the house, and then a few days to get it all sent out or collected.......money raised to be split three ways - DD's trip to China, DS's next lot of training fees and my debt pot!

    The same period could include a car boot or two as well for things not worth putting on ebay.......

    It might be a good idea, but whether it actually gets put into practice could be a different thing entirely!

    Morning all - what a difference in the weather to this time last week! cold, grey and going to be wet.....thankfully it is dry while the children do their paper rounds, but I am not going to risk hanging the washing out!

    I'm off out later - will end up spending because it involves a charity fundraising dinner, but will do my best to keep it to a minimum.

    In the meantime, I will get some more dooyoo reviews done, or at least written/suggested......scratching yielded 10ps only....better than nothing...and I will put something on ebay and/or amazon.....

    Morning, its horrid out.

    Why is it that on Monday to Friday when I have to be up at 6am I feel like death and have to drag my @rse out of bed yet on a gloomy Sunday morning I'm bright and awake at 5.15am :mad:

    Well, got load of washing done, had a small tidy up and now treating myself to real coffee and a mouch through MSE

    Hope you're racing thru some dooyoos!

    Shame about the weather - and I soooo empathise with the body clock conspiring against you on a non-work day!
