I know Italy and Nigeria are not recommended for ebay posting. But I think portugal is ok. Check the ebay forums on ebay or on MSE for clarification.

I haven't had any problems with Italy (although to be fair, that's mostly with a good reliable repeat customer.) My problem countries have been America, France and (ta-daa!) England.

Nikki that sounds terrible...are you okay? Do you want to talk about it?

Its just silly really, apparently i've been saying stuff about there family, which I haven't. :mad:. I almost wish I had said the stuff for the amount of agro I'm getting. See, it sounds like I should be back in the playground! I'm just sick of being made out to be the bad person all the time. I must have an invisible tattoo or my forehead or something.

That in itself is an offence - threatening you with violence. If you feel intimidated/ threatened then i would lodge a complaint - you'll be able to do this discretely and they won't need to take any action if you don't want unless something happens. You can look online for your local Police number and ask them to create a log with your concerns (get the log number from them and record it discretely, then you can refer back to this if needed). Hope things are ok - offload on here if you need to x

I think I'm going to nip in to the police station tomorrow (suppose it helps that the neighbour is a police officer) and do that. I'm more concerned that if they do 'batter me' that something might happen to the baby, its not often that he' not with me.

Of course the OH has been told that they (his sister, her partner and the partners sister) are not invited to the babys naming ceremony and the wedding. Fun to see how that goes down. Can see it causing problems between me and the OH, of course he says that he's on my side but blood is thicker than water isn't it?

Sorry, I've probably just garbled on a lot of crap.:(

Hi all,

Thanks for the replies and PM's i was just concerned that my posts acheived nothing but bigging me up, which is the opposite of what i wanted. Just wanted to demonstrate another option.

I will continue to post then just to keep you up to date. If you want to watch ot Chat to me download Pokerstars and search fro me, my user name is 177272.

It has taken me years to get to this point, i am a slow learner, no doubt some of you lovely people would be quicker.

I made i think £13k last year ish, and that was made in the first 6 months of the year, the second half i made only a little profit. This thread then give a good reason to motivate my self and hopefully point others to have a look.

So my progress so far i am happy with, but i will be happier if i can complete the is whole thing tonight which in theory i could .

I do not gamble, so the online Poker is for me. The Bingo that others play is more of a gamble, it is impossible for me to lose this money, i may go down £50 or $100 but that is the game, so please don't be concerned.


Any questions just ask.

Regards

Steve

Thats impressive £13k, sounds like you have a good strategy.:beer:

Oh bless Saucy, big hugs!

Jo, thank you, I will do that at some point

Nixi, I've forgotten, are you writing or illustrating the children's book? Would you like me to PM you some ideas if I come up with any? I think I'd like to write one too but don't have the artistic skills and would love to discuss stuff with you!
The MBTs are a size 3, if you were only a 4 they might have been OK as they need to be tight-fitting for support but never mind lol, I'll get rid of them somehow!

Saucy - why is your signature down for maintenance?????????

Paula - sorry meant to reply earlier. I want to write a childrens book - got a few ideas, which have morphed and changed along the way lol! I have decided that as of tomorrow my free 2hours a day are going to be devoted to writing as much as possible, so hopefully will have something on paper soon. If you want to pm me and we can chat about ideas etc I promise I won't steal your ideas!!! I am really excited and full of thoughts but you can guarantee I'll sit down tomorrow and stare at a blank page for 2 hours LoL! I think you should have a go:j - thats if you can find the time, after all doesn't cost anything to start other than the time!! My problem is I keep buying new notebooks (Saucy I will prob. be another customer!!!!!) to write notes and ideas in!

Shame about the MBTs. Looked at some today and picked up the Spring/Summer 2010 brochure....which ones have you got? My BiLs girlfriend is a podiatrist and she recommended that normally you should have them a bit bigger than normal size I think a size smaller is def. the wrong way to go.

Hales - will redo my commitments this week, been a waste of space this weekend with half term, but did manage to list on ebay so that was something! Are you still ok doing it, don't want you to feel like it is a chore..... also is this the best way to tell you? Would we be better using our signature and updating our own? I love having it all on one list but it must be alot of work for you doing it every week, much appreciated though! :T


Weekly:
Spend at least 3 days 'free' time writing!
Sort office cupboard and do filing (cannot carry this over again!)
Continue to update blog
Start photography blog (maybe!)
Fill in Power of Attory Forms

Monthly:
Come up with a money making idea for my website...

nikki - if your OH doesnt take your side 100%, I'll come and batter him :mad: Has his family ever been on Jezza? they sound delightful.

I will never understand a lot of the people I have met - my family are perfectly saintlike compared to some of the population!

I hope it all works out nikki - surely they wouldnt hit you when you have the baby with you???????

nixinixi

Nikki - hugs! Families eh.....really wish you could choose them! Sounds like a good idea to log a complaint. xx
