    .. I hate being home alone, but at least I live at the bottom of a cul-de-sac so there are plenty of people around

    So do we and OH's rear windscreen still got smashed at 2am, five metres from where I was lying in bed _pale_ I knew what time it was cos I heard a noise like smashing glass but brushed it off, then discovered the huge hole in his windscreen at 2pm the following day :(

    (don't think Sami lives in a cul-de-sac though so think I'm okay saying that.. :o)
    Right can I ask a question,

    buyer on ebay won an item which clearly states pay pal only. She has now sent me an email saying that her account has been hacked so pay pal is temp frozen and can she send me a cheque or postal order. What would you do. Its a sleeping bag that she won for £2.20 + £1.75 p&p

    I'd probably let her pay by cheque or PO (PO preferably) but not send it until you receive and cash it obviously. But bear in mind it'll probably take ages with the post strikes this week and next :rolleyes:

    im not an ebayer.....but i would say, ill wait until your paypal is unfrozen, then we can continue using the said preferred method at time of purchasing.??

    Fair dos :) With the post strikes it'd probably take just as long to wait for PayPal to get sorted (don't know how long these things take to sort though)..

    I've been watching bundles of early baby stuff, thinking about putting mine on (we've got so much!), but they're not making much now..

    I live on a main road, no nice lil cul-de-sac for me :) I have neighbours but not really close and I don't know any of them, I'm in a row that is the pub, empty house, us, empty house. If you look out of the front there is just the train station carpark and a little farm and just trees, railway and nothingness, the neighbours are at the side and back but it's their back gardens that I see.
    I only feel safe with other grown ups in the house.

    Edgar seems much better :D I think I know what it was that made him sick and it was related to my boobies :p

    MM if her paypal was hacked it will prob only be frozen for a couple of days so would be quicker to wait n see then her pay by paypal

  • Aww sami, sorry, I would hate that ! If we moved out about 10 mins drive from my house we would live in the middle of nowhere and that is where Chris would love to be, but I couldnt do it !!! I like to know that there are people around me at all times !

    She can get your address through ebay anyway (and your tel number) - you get notified if they request the info though
