Couple of randoms, Dressage for beginners! Not here yet, due any day now, so REALLY need to get organised!

Have you decided when you are going to list yours yet?

Cally- thats about the norm in my house for me at the moment! See how long it lasts before you crash!

Dressage for beginners - fantastic, stick it in Sports Goods > Equestrian > Books section on Ebay, should sell fine my type of book, lol.

I'll prob end up crashing bout 11pm tonight

Thanks Cally, never thought of EBaying them I have at least a dozen on horsey things, will try it tonight once the kiddies are sleeping! DD1 had this horrible habit of declaring all books as hers and ripping the dust covers on them. Either tht or using them as lap trays so she doesn't make a mess of her trousers!

11pm?? you do better than me, I was in bed by 9.30pm last night!

If you happen to make a mechanic sulkie I would happily buy it

Definitely, let me know what colour overalls and hair you want and if you want it to come with a phrase - it doesn't have to though. MummyandPaige, I'll think up some and PM you them On my own laptop trying to get the pdf and it still won't open it!!! Don't really want to have to ask her to do a Word file for me instead but suppose she won't mind if she gets a customer out of it. Just packed up Joey's Sulkie and absolutely paranoid it'll break in transit, you should see the amount of packing stuff I've put in :rotfl: Moneymabel, good luck with Ebay xx

Thank you guys, when ever I try to get things sorted the world plots against me lol.

On the plus side I have just been told that I am being given a laptop tonight in return for proof reading a mates coursework for her Masters! Apparently it works out cheaper to give me the laptop than pay to have stuff proof read.....does this mean I am cheap?:rotfl:

doing well on woohoo today, been playing all morning and keep winning here n there, got another 5 gold stars up to 16 now

Ooh that's great ticklepenny! It must mean you're worth a laptop which is a decent amount I'd say
Cally you are fab, thank you - never even thought of that. I now need to find £200 for clay and I can buy at wholesale price, that's if OH agrees it's worthwhile as all 'my' money has gone into 'house' money for now. Am wondering whether it's worth going on Etsy too, does anyone have a shop on there?

Paula B the sulkies are awesome... once I have business set up and some "disposable income" lol I will be buying from you! My OH, brother, best mate etc..... they all need sulkies to make their lives complete!

Paula did you look at the other link I posted as they seemed to do bulk buy rather than wholesale so no minimum order but cheaper with bigger orders. Don't know what the postage price was though.

Ticklepenny that's great! A good deal and a good friend; I think it is a mark of a good mate when they are willing to pay for your services... not just on the take. :j
