    Thats a fantastic amount, think I am about £80 so far.

    Did list a few today and relisted some - total selling 76 of which 10 currently have bids, todays sales were better than yesterdays - fewer not sold but by the nature of DVDs you are not getting to get 5 people bidding too often!!

    Well done on tea - thats a great meal for such little money!

    Wrapping .............dont talk to me - covered in tape and brown paper!!

    All ebay wrapping done for tonight along with a huge pile of ironing :T

    Now what I need to know is do i get mad if DH & DS have spent money on Mothers Day or do I get mad if they haven't bothered which is more likely as they couldnt be bothered to go out today and it will be a mad dash in the morning.
    Ive been married some years and know them both well :rotfl:

    Off to get the camera now for ebay photos, I have 97 items on ebay at the moment most of them are relists but I would like to be at 150 this time tomorrow
