    Morning all,

    Can you beleive yesterday I was told off, sorry advised, by a manager at work that I was on here too often. I felt like saying if you think that's often you should see some of the other posters,lol.
    Got to keep a low profine so will nip back at lunch.

    Anyway, caught up with last nights posts,

    uptoyou - welcome, great idea but are you keeping it to bikes or including car parts etc ? if so the link on the first page for localbargainfinder on ebay, when I use it there's always car parts available for pennies.
    jmrance1 - well done on the appeal
    ticklepenny - you sound as if your going about things the right way getting domain, ebay name , etc all set up, a strong building has solid foundations.
    Saucy - loving the new blog - had a sneak peek via twitter ;-)
    jo - we all sometimes feel as though we have too many ideas to put one into practice but you will have you're eureka moment soon.
    nixi - if you have a problem opening word docs excel spreadsheets etc on your laptop, you can use a free alternative - google docs. www.docs.google.com it's a very basic package but as well as giving you a free word processing, spreadsheet and presentation tools, it does allow you to open microsoft office docs (word,excel,powerpoint)
    wayne - much better site. It's great to see it coming along.
    Anyone I've missed apologies but must dash as can't afford to lose this job.
    Would like to: Retire at 54. 19yrs .Clear mortgage by 50. 16yrs. Clear Secured debts by 43. 8yrs.Clear Unsecured debt by 39. 4yrs. Gain full control of my finances by 36. 1yr.Keep my head above water. Today.

    Hi everyone, Huge hugs to any that need them!

    Not had a chance to catch up. I can honestly say this has been the week from hell and am rather sick to death of car probs. Still not home, but hopefully the right part will actually be supplied by toyota this time and that they will get it right!!! This week has obviously not been a totally great one on lots of front and there is now a HUGE saga with the so called job but dont even know where to begin with that story! I am frustrated and tired and rather fed up.

    Anyway, not going to whinge today going to just take the day as it comes but did want to let you know that I am still alive and well, just everything is very complicated at the moment!

    Right off agin to sort some more bits

    Love and huggles to you all, god I miss you lot! xxx

    (if the seventeen year-old's anything like I was she'll feel terrible when she grows up a bit and eventually realises how selfish she's been, hope you stay calm xx)

    EM and Joey :) are you wanting the bigger Sulkies (about 4.5" length) or a mini one (3 and a little bit ")? Here are the normal and mini versions next to each other (I can make the minis sit down if they are to go over a monitor, a shelf or something);
