Hi everyone, sorry I've not been on- my DS has been unwell and we had to call ambulance service this morning as he was having swine flu symptoms
Ambulance man said it looked more like tonsilitus then anything else but due to the spread of the flu happening so quickly they are dishing out the tamiflu for people that have as few as two of the 20odd symptoms just as a precaution.
I had such a terrible morning I was beside myself with worry and just felt sick
He's okay now, still burning up a bit but feeling alot better and alot chirpier. Thank God.
Going to bed now worn out as didn't sleep well last night with worry. X0 -

Sweetpeas - Hope your wee one is feelng better (and hugs to you)
Well, mixed things from fleabay. I found the write up and photo for the one that got removed due to the hacked account in my recycle bin so got it listed again last night - watchers on it already again
Did have a bid on one of my items cancelled and the bidder put "Cannot contact seller" as the reason for withdrawing the bid, which is utter rubbish :mad: If they'd bothered contacting me I wouldn't mind so much, but anyhoo.
Sold a job lot of cd singles the other night for nearly £50 and haven't been paid for it yet, and another thing to France - again no payment or contact :rolleyes:
Did have another small bin sale this morning though - added to my total.
I'm making ebay sound really bad - sorry - it's really not! All but £50 of my money from this month is from ebayI wouldn't be without it. (Just having a bad day!)

Did anyone else get an email from Shopping.com re: the 10 reviews for a fiver?
Mine said:
We would like to thank you for sharing your reviews on Shopping.com. Our editorial team is actively validating your reviews, they will be live in the next 3-4 days.
- How many reviews have been submitted so far ?
We have reached nearly 6 500 reviews already.
- When do I get paid?
If you have reached a credit over £5, you will receive a PayPal transfer the 3rd week of the next month.
So this sounds hopeful!0 -
Whoop, just logged in to t'interwebby banking to find £10 from scratchies, and £47.73 from myhpf has landed so £57.73 added to my total for the month.
I got the email too, had stopped writing after others hadnt heard anything but might see if I can at least get enough done towards the £5, doubt I'll have the time or patience to do any more though.
I also just got an email from Greenmetropolis, two books sold to one buyer, fairly small books too so it'll be cheaper to post them together rather than individually as they'll fit in to one padded envelope.It’s not worth doing something unless someone, somewhere, would much rather you weren’t doing it.
