    The suggestion is that there has always been this many but that people in the past were not diagnosed so would just die . There is even some suggestions that a lot of the people in stories, like the Victorian ladies who used to lay on a sofa all day too weak to do anything and then die of 'consumption' were coeliacs, in that they suffered fatigue as they could not absorb any food, then they got one of the throat/stomach/bowels cancers and just wilted away.

    There was also a misunderstanding that you have to be born with it, where nowadays many people are diagnosed later in life as the system breaks down and lets the CD in after a severe virus.

    Official figures suggest 1 in 100 people have it but most are not diagnosed.

    You are all doing so well, I have 13 things listed and sold 2 last night, they only went for £5.99 together though.
    Must list more things tonight. I find it really hard to do in the day as i have a 3 year old and 18 month old. I am also 16 weeks pregnant so at night time when my other boys are in bed i'm soooo tired!!
    But needs must, i have a holiday to save up for!!

    I need some inspiration, free listing would do it. I wonder if we're getting any free days this month?
    I've sooooooo much to do I really don't know where to start.
    I bought before Xmas a load of new gift items, £1500.00 worth in fact but I can't be arsed & so I think I will list again as a job lot.
    Anyone want a load of gift stock?
    If I sell that on I can then get selling what I have a passion for old & interesting.
    Right, that's inspired me, off to sell it as a job lot.
    Wish me luck please.
    I may be some time
