    LOL yes Pickle they are!

    Well please pass on to Ms HWG that I listed 6 items on Ebay this evening. I do so terribly hate it - it is so boring but needs must!

    Here our holiday time is 12th July and I am trying to persuade DH to take some time off. He does work very hard and being self employed it means he doesn't get set holidays. His staff will be off but as he says, because he has to pay them anyway, its not a week without expense! Anyway he too has listed on ebay today and so if he makes some money, I will insist on a little R&R time!

    Bank Holiday cleaning I think is the plan for tomorrow - how very rock and roll!

    There is no point in negative thought, it takes up time and energy which could be used in a positive, happy way!

    Morning All

    Another day, another dollar (hopefully)

    It looks pleasant outside but still not the warmest so MUST do housework today - oh the joys of a bank holiday.

    Some things finishing on Ebay tonight and a watcher already on those items listed last night - so all good there too.

    Also need to get Statement of Accounts printed off for our shops, ready for posting tomorrow.

    And will also have to spend money.....need for food rations!

    Have fun all

    HWG you are right about the dust and if I had the money and DH wasn't working I would be out too!

    DS owes me £65 so going to get my cash back and pay it back off the cc before the interest starts may buy him a burger as a treat. Do you treat 14 year olds to burgers it seems so long since he wanted to go out with me :cool:

    OMG, I can't remember that far back!! I will have to go and revisit.....I suspect there is a recurring theme though - am tired, can't do the housework, blah blah! Some things never change!
