    hope the car boot went well and everyone wanted to give you their money.
  • hi all, car boot went well and getting into the swing of it now...up at stupid o clock, que and read a book having brekkie while waiting and then sell, sell, sell!! 73 to bank as have reduced floats to 15 per bag (always have two people so we have 15 each now). What with that and the tax rebate thats barclaycard gone and 280 from mbna! Alfie cat getting very affectionate now and a definate change from having the other two here...mum also enjoying having dotty and will bond with poppy in time (ie when she comes out from behind cupboard!!) so these all good. Phone calls to catch up on and then some bling to make in readyness for selling but with some wine! Have discovered that the twinings is yummy - a bit like a rose and lovely cold!
