    munchki, we know you are not going to give up, because you can't beat a person who never gives up.

    You got down to the last two, which shows you are fab. Your time will come soon.
    I learned that courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it. The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear.

    Yay!! After reading these posts I have set up a blog on my new german shepherd puppy! I have always wanted to create one but thought I had nothing worthwhile blogging about- but then I thought "why not do one about the pup?" Share the joys/hassle of a new puppy! I am really pleased that I did it- thank you all for giving me the confidence to start it!
    Well done Murie - it's a breeze once you get used to it! There will eventually be plenty of people who will want to know about your trials and tribulations with a new German Shepherd puppy, I'm sure. Try joining other forums about pets, pet care, your breed of dog (there must be some) and then you may be able to post a link to your blog. You could also try joining Blogcatalogue.com this may help get you some more readers, and try advertising your blog on facebook and twitter. Good luck with it all.

    I am beginning to think that I am better at trying to help others as I just dont see much for me at the moment. Everything seems at a complete standstill on both fronts. I really want to work for myself but think I am going to have to raise the white flag and ask for some help myself as i just dont seem to be getting anywhere all of a sudden

    Hi everyone, this is my first post since the group split. I have been still ebaying steadily. I wanted to ask a question to all the book sellers on here. Do you think there is enough reward for selling books online or is i not worth the hassle. I think i can buy a joblot of books for good value. Books are a range of fiction, non-fiction, kids...The books would only stand me a few pence each.

    Any suggestions??
    Thanks

    AAAAARG my daughter wanted to help me cook tea and instead I now have an unusable food mixer as she has broken the jug AAAAAARRRG! I really cannot afford a replacement (this was a gift from my MiL) so will have to muddle along without. Not happy :( Sorry just needed to vent!

    Thanks Dillidalli that would be great :-)

    oh dear Nixi- hope you are calmer now! What a pain :-(

    Hi Tommy, depends what the books are if it's just normal fiction books then probably not worth selling online- car boots might be better?

    Right - sorry can't remember who I was talking to about doing some online surveys and using facebook to get responses, but the website to use is www.surveymonkey.com. Aparently there is a free and a paid version, the free only lets you get up to 100 responses and you cant access the pie charts etc. very straight forward to use though and i dont think the paid verson costs much.

    Hope that helps anyone wanting to do some online research.
