All you people flogging on ebay, obviosly bigger fragile items need better packing. Now where do you get things like your large envelops in bulk cheap to cut down on costs?:beer:
A4 plain envelopes Poundland/Wilkinsons
Padded envelopes in large quanitites Viking.co.uk have 3 for 2 on at the moment. Smaller amounts again pound shops/QD/ Home Bargains etc
Wilkinsons also to the polystyrene chip/shapes that you can use for fragile items, you can also use scrunched up newspaper too

Nothing top secret, just have spent so much time thinking and yes dwelling in the past (ex) that Inever really saw what i have staring me in the face right here!! I have been my own worst enemy the past couple of weeks. Now time to fight back, and claw my way back up.
1. I WILL find either a job or I WILL get this business off the ground
2. I WILL move on from the past
3. I WILL allow myself to be happy again, starting NOW
hmmmmmm maybe I needed the past couple of weeks, or worse maybe I have had to go through the past 13 months for a reason.....geeeeesh!!I am somebody. I am me. I like being me. And I need nobody to make me somebody! Louis L'Amour0 -

munchki - you arent with mr darcy are you? Please tel me some advice I gave you worked ! I would like to apologise for all the advice I gave you anyway cos its clear I didnt know what was going on in my own life, let alone anyone elses !!!
I think I could work a killer shark into the tale. I am sure most of them are made up - I knew someone who sold a story and when she bought the magazine she couldnt find her story - it had been reworked so much she didnt even recognise it !!!! She said the money wasnt worth the grief of having to apologise to everyone who rang her and having to explain she had been misquoted !
Jokes aside - if anyone does have a story, then you could make some nice money. They also do best car boot bargains, funny photos, top tips etc.. Worth a go - relatively painless and you can submit to all those type of mags.VR repayment £404 £156.02 PAID

I know what you mean, feel like that myself sometimes, like it really wouldn't bother you at all if the other one just dissapeared, wouldn't notice.
I get told I over think things though, so really thought it was just me being me again!turn £100 into £10000 in 2010 member #16 £567.68/£10,000 -I'm a wiggly worm, I'm a wiggly worm, how do you do, I love you, I'm wiggly worm!0 -

Maybe I should explain the srunched up newspaper bit as it sounds a bit bad when I read it back!!
If I was sending something fragile.. say a vase and it didn't have its original packaging. I would get two boxes from supermarket or local shop etc one smaller than the other. Put the vase in the smaller one with loads of bubble wrap and use the newspaper srcrunched up in any gaps so the vase can't move then tape that box up and then put inside the other box, again scrunch newspaper into balls and put them all around the box so that nothing moves, tape that one up and send.
Hope that is clearer!8 years of being on a DMP finished 3/3/140
