    :eek::eek: well rid from this comment!!!! Whoever heard of being told to have less of a life.......

    Well done on the fleabay stuff, I keep meaning to get back on it and get rid of all the tat I've got in my flat...keep missing all the bargain free listing weekends though :o

    I know what you mean, kept thinking he was trying to have more of a life through me, he even said why didn't i get him put on my car insurance, then he could drive my car, don't think he liked the answer cos i've only known you 2 minutes and no one drives my car, and i pay for it to get me to work and stuff, it's not sat at home doing nothing. I don't know who some folk think they are.

    but it's Thursday think i'm going out for a couple of drinks at the weekend.

    Good for you eco :beer:
    Though no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending

    I have just sold some perfume on fleabay, that was bought for me as a present, so feel a bit guilty, but I didn't like it anyway, I am quite chuffed, and I've listed 2 more items, they both have watches and I've been asked if I'll do a buy it now on one of them, I'm quite giddy didn't think I'd get the hang of it all. With the money I made in May I've bought myself a new TV for my bedroom, it will be better on a barge than my old one as it's a flat screen one, it's also black and shiny, if I had the room I'd be doing a Peter Kay and sliding across the floor on my knees.

    Welcome back shoe Gal, I keep meaning to read your's, Lula's, Make up's and Souk's diary's to see what your all up to these day's, never seem to get round to it, but think I need another drink.

    Wow, that is impressive!

    Don't worry looking at my diary, I've not updated it in ages!

    I don't know if anyone is a fan of Perry or Pear Cider but I had some of the swedish Kopparberg the other week and it was amazing, like liquid pear drops :beer: My top recommend of the week! :cool:
    I've got my own flat :j:j

    Now I have to pay the bills :eek:

    And feed my interiors addiction ;)

    I had my old TV for 20 years and had been saying I was going to get a new since January, but once I get in saving mode don't like spending my wage money. Going to get some new hiking boots next, then the month after if I'm still doing the challenge I'm going to get a really good winter coat.

    I'm going to look out for that Pear cider, thanks for the tip make up.

    Kopparberg is fab stuff, although I like the mixed fruits one best - finally a grown up version of cider n'black :rotfl:

    Eco I am inspired by your barge plans... might be moving next year and a boat does seem appealing... but not being super-practical :o think I need to do a lot of investigating first
