    I went up to use the PC to upload the ebay pics and decided to sort my ebay pile while i waited. I've got a box for the car boot and another 6 items to ebay. I also found my camera lead so because i forgot to delete the images after uploading ( and there were almost 400 pics on there all together ) i'm uploading them onto the laptop to save faffing around emailing them to myself. Ds1 has finished his room :j and Ds2 is having a paddy because he wants to watch Fireman Sam and it's not on yet.:cool:

    I just need to put the pictures on the ones already turbo listed and list the other 6 then i'll make a start on Tea.

  • Thanks for all the good thoughts/ wishes. Am managing to do something for 2 minutes per hr (anyone done pacing will know what I mean). Not making much impact but at least the pots are washed.
    Thanks for TPS link, have registered my phone, am sick of pushy telesales.
