Morning All
Still got loads to do today but hey.
Lil-me I assume you mean ebay - I had an email about it.
I might even put some stuff on there myself.
Hope everyone has a good day

Oh. They sent me an e mail!
Have just listed 4 GBA games for DS...hope they sell at a decent price because they wont allow you to charge P&P (I was going to charge 50p).
2 loads of washing pegged out. DS decluttered to Santa Pod
