I think I'd have to agree with Red - pull a sickie or don't answer the door. How dare visitors descend in the middle of an e-bay challenge!!!12/04/2019

Didn't pull a sickie and everything is done just need to book restaurant for tomorrow night, not good for the budget but it's £5.95 a head for all you can eat carvery and we have not been out as a family since christmas, so im not worrying about it and i might have a few :beer:
I have listed 15 items on ebay tonight because I know I wont do any tomorrow so now 115 on ebay.

Fab news on the carvery, it's a shame really that they don't allow you to put another plate of food up for the following day isn't it?

I am intrigued as to where you are getting all these things to list on ebay. Having said this, I am getting a few good bids on the things I listed (all 16
!) It's far more fun when things are selling well:)
