    Good news/bad news - dad gave me £1900 today which he has been saving for our wedding. It was meant to be a surprise but he told me today "just in case" :( he doesn't think he's coming back out so it was hard to take but as always he wouldn't accept no for an answer. Going to put it in the bank and try and give it back to him when he comes home as I think he will need it more than me

    Thats a really good idea, JesaRose - it will put his mind at ease to know he's given it to you, and as you say, he might well need it when he comes out ...

    Oh Jesa thats awful. I never thought being given £1900 would be awful but that is sad. My thoughts are with you.

    I listed 2 items on ebay today as its free listing day, I have about 30 items I needed to put on but laziness took over and I only did 2, BUT thats the first items I have listed in more than a year so 2 is acutally an acheivement for me lol.

    JesaRose :( Sorry to hear of your situation.

    Batgirl - I know that feeling. I find listing stuff on eBay such a chore, I often end up listing half the stuff I mean to. Luckily for me I don't get charged to list anything, so I can list stuff as and when I feel free.

    On a side note, I made £120 profit form eBay this weekend.

    Right then... £25 ocado voucher from sending off Times mastheads, and a £5 Green and Black's voucher after I sent a complaint letter that some of their chocolate being sold by WHSmith was not at its best. Result!
