Massive debts

Well slept for around 7 hours, but with lots of ebay finishing this afternoon woke up with lots of buzzing in my ear as bids came in and items finished.

Never mind, quite happy overall having netted £230 today from eBay:j. Still have 39 items selling, and a bundle which I am supposed to be ironing as we speak. Instead I'm trying to kill time on here, but really I know I need to find that last push to get it all listed:o.

Just popping on to Gumtree to list the iron, ironing board and clothes drying rod as a batch for £12, the portable colour TV and freeview box for £12, and my full length mirror for £5, my pink rug and matching throw for £5, an electric three tier steamer for £5, a Nike holdall for £5 and my Weightwatchers scales for £10 .

Then if I can't prolong the agony any more, I'm going to iron, photograph and list the remaining 8 or so items before heading to nightshift at 7.30pm. Busy little bee doesn't even cover it.:money:

Everything which could be gumtree'd has been gumtree'd. There's no getting away with it now, I've just to dry my hair then its the dread ironing, photographing and listing for the last push.:eek:

I hate ironing, I still haven't got around to listing anything on fleabay, although I have a big box of things to sell when I do so, oh and have I ever mentioned how much I HATE SURVEYS.

Got screened out after 25 minutes earlier because my finger hit the wrong key when it asked me how many people lived in my house. Apparently I was inconsistent with my answers and therefore they could not rely on my honesty :rotfl:

Anyway, still feeling like carp but thought I'd pop in and say hi. After all you couldn't sell me right now even if you wanted to as no-one would take me with these germs. You'd have to pay to have me taken away and I know you'd never do that, double :rotfl:

Hope you have a good night in work and those pesky labourers aren't too troublesome

Thanks Granny,

You know I would never pay to have you taken away..........it would eat into my Australian pot:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:.

Sorry to hear you are still feeling a tad rubbish. Perhaps you could earn some extra cash by participating in a clinical trial to make rubbishness better? What's the worst that could happen?!:o

I am the usual little hive of industry - or so I thought. Listed everything on Gumtree which I want rid of before I leave London next Monday. Then sitting here, feeling rather smug, realised I still have a printer/scanner loitering under the bed which needs listing:mad:.

Staying up in the morning to get the bus to Tesco for a spot of shopping which will make the cupboard and fridge contents into meals for my last week:j:j:j.

Having not a bad shift actually, all the nice labourers are behaving themselves for the moment and liking all the nice drugs they are given.:A

Another load on eBay finished tonight and all did quite well. A total of approx £65 currently en route to my bank account. A total of £259.37 sitting in paypal - waiting to clear:mad::mad:. A total of 36 items currently for sale, and the remaining ones still to list are all ironed and pretty waiting for me to photograph and list them later this morning before bed.

My Gumtree listings are doing well. Have already sold the mirror, TV and freeview box, pink rug and matching throw £22 being collected on Wednesday before my nightshift:D. It's not a'lot but the TV was free, and the rest I don't need. What am I going to do without my TV for the last few days:eek::eek::eek:. Will have to use the remaining download megs left on my dongle to watch TV on my laptop. I will buy a bottle of wine and while the time away online no doubt:j. Probably watching excitedly as another round of eBay finishes:p.

Another few items finishing tomorrow night, currently worth approx £100 with lots of watchers - ooh exciting. I forgot how good fun this eBaying was;).

What isn't fun is 1. the ironing, photographing and listing and 2. the bloody packaging and waiting in a Post Office queue as all the people groan when you pull out yet another packet to send:o.

Never mind, the cash rolling in is the most fun part for me personally. Then, even better as I transfer it to my Aussie pot waiting for its final destination - PERTH AUSTRALIA!!!!:j:j:j

Must list the remaining items on eBay when I get in this morning, so that they finish Friday giving them the weekend to pay and Monday to post before I head to the airport for the final time EVER! It's going to be late to bed this morning, but at least I can sleep late. Then its nightshift again tonight.

Should also list the printer/scanner from underneath the bed on Gumtree before nodding off this morning:o.

More bank money due on Thursday, and can all be transferred straight to the savings. Still no sign of the London deposit which is around £600 my share:mad:. My exflatmate emailed them yesterday so hoping they reply later today. Also having to fit in little fits of final cleaning and tidying of my little flat before evacuating on Monday.

The deposit for that £425 should be with me in around 10 days after moving out, another little lot for the savings account. Once I'm home I can get started on pulling the house apart looking for more stuff to sell!:D

Well the cheek of it, I've got an admission coming in so have to shoot off for now:cool:. Have to email Australia to see whether AHPRA have received my statutory declaration (the original). Hoping they have, as I've mislaid the receipt with the tracking barcode on it - not my brightest moment:o. If they have, then I'm just waiting for them to confirm my registration so that my Visa can be issued.

The Visa being issued is what's holding up the last bits and pieces, e.g. confirming Cole's registration at primary school, applying for Alan's restricted licence etc:mad::mad::mad:. I should love the Aussie pace of life, but jesus they are slow!

gargrave50

All my ladies are behaving nicely, bless them .

I have now emailed AHPRA to nag (ahem) chase them for my Registration:p. Caught up with a few threads, and now for the inevitable. Going to try to clear my inbox of surveys which are just bugging me now:o.

You heard it here first - the minute I've got enough to claim a single voucher from each site and I'm calling it quits. They have been good to me over the years, and paid for many a Christmas or Birthday gift, but I'm done with being screened out. I'm off to live the good life:D. Good but still frugal.

I am 14 points short of redeeming £8 to Paypal in My Survey UK, and £2 short of claiming a £10 voucher from Valued Opinions:mad::mad::mad::mad:.

Have done all the surveys in my inbox and only got through on a couple. Global Testmarket clearly have a little autobot which rejects me for fun:mad::mad::mad::mad:.

Surveys definately have their place, and as I've just said they have served me well over the years. However, now I'm just getting too old and tetchy. Plus, I'm going to Australia - and I don't know anyone I have to buy presents for:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:.

Hurry up and let me redeem and I'm gone forever:money:.
