MM I was thinking car boot to get rid of car sets.
Calley electric meter reader just came here. Actually a bit annoyed we have been monitoring usage with an aim to reduce it as much as possible. I entered my readings online and a pop up said thats less than we expected are you sure so i double checked and its right so I clicked i was sure. I got an email to say bill was ready so I checked it and was happy that we were in credit for electric. today a meter reader shows up saying they think they have an incorrect reading.

Good idea about the folksy shop-might be a good way of getting things moving-good luck :-)

Argh the babies not well now, that and he's attempting to climb the stairs :eek: (he's on 7.5 months and just mastered crawling but I turned round to find him having pulled himself up to a standing position and had his leg up as if he knew how to climb them IYKWIM?)

Still looking for a lil part time job at night just for extra pennies to put by. Found a cleaning job 5-7am for 3 days a week at £6p/h but not sure that would be viable after tax if its a second job.0 -
Hi everyone ,I havent been here in a while, everythings ticking over slowly. I sold 8 items in the past 2 days on ebay , all small money.
Looked round the charity shops this morning , found 2 Leonardo Art Deco figurines. Trouble is they are only 1988 .One is called "The charlston" and the other is called "Leaving the opera" and they stand about 10" tall.
I have searched the internet and cant find them any where. I paid £5 each for them.
At the moment they are sitting on my fire place looking really posh ,lol. Can I trust the kids not to knock them off and break them ?Kindness costs nothing0 -
Bought a sat nav to sell back on, its now on ebay and nothing, not even a watcher!!
HuffLive for what tomorrow has to bring, not what yesterday has taken away0 -

MSN - anyone is welcome to join, just PM Amber with your email address and I'm sure she will sort it out!
SHell - the frames from the states - is there a market on ebay/esty/folksy etc for selling them as materials ?? Might be worth buying them in, using waht you need and selling the rest on at a profit of course!
Well I had a brilliant BIN offer on my clothes bundles of £50 for two!! The others are at about £50 with at least a day to go.... a lot of them don't even have any bids yet so I can see the pennies coming in... kerching!

She has 9, yes 9 kids and is never short on money, she started popping them out at 16 so has never had a job, ever, in the summer she brough the biggest climbing frame set I have ever seen for her kids, must have cost hundreds and has a state of the art stereo system that she shows off from thurs-sun nights by making my house vibrate with her never ending house parties. Wouldn't be so bad if they didn't go on until after midnight when she has a 5,7,9 and 13yr old in there that has to be up for school the next morning, not to mention the agrueeing that often end up with police intervention.
Poor kids, no hope for them, 5 year old regularly shouts things like "you don't give a s**t about me" "stop f**king ignoring me" and my favourite "you are just a stupid f**king !!!!! mum".
Anyway, moving soon, people like them should be confined to the council estate, not a snob, but my 2 year old started copying what she heard when playing in the garden, banned that one now though, ever since there staffie jumped through the fence, as in put a hole in the middle, and tried jumping in the kitchen window foaming at the mouth growling.
Question, I sold my tumble dryer yesterday, getting chest freezer and needed the room, lady drove 50 miles to collect and she emailed me this morning saying its not working, what am I to do? It was working fine when I unplugged it and I don't drive so cant go and get it, told her how to reset the thermostat as thats all I know how to do, but what if she says it doesn't work after that? Pretty sure she is not going to want to do another 100 mile round trip, help?
Edit: sorry ranting again, knew I should have kept quiet, the neighbours is a sore subject at the moment!
I live next to a girl who has regular noisy partys,Ive had to knock the door and tell her to turn it down before ,needless to say she doesnt speak to me,like I care lol
she has a very bad rep,self confesed
Im moving soon to so:j
As for being well off on benefits,I have been single mum and couldnt get to work quick enough benefits for me was hell and a struggle,I think some people know how to work the system and dont care about lying,Also if social services are involved,and it sounds like they should be,they help them get stuff
A family here with problems had all mod cons plasma tv the lot,where as my TV takes 10mins to come on then pics not great and I carnt afford to replace and I work,it is annoying but they have bigger problems than people like us and I would rather be me
I dont know what to do about tumbler,things like that happen to me,seems strange how it suddenly stoped working though0
