    It'll go on ebay next month elle, and whatever I sell will come over in the two cases we're bringing to the UK at the end of May so I can post domestic and then fill them up with food we can't get here on the way back ;)

    Whatever doesn't sell will go to charity unless it's fabulous in which case I'll either relist it or think of something. There's also some baby stuff and a pile of OH's mum's stuff he didn't realise was here.

    Ooohhh... I'd listed a mirror OH rescued from his Grandad's house on our local Gumtree type thing and I've just found an email from a guy wanting to buy it in my junk emails (webmail, not Outlook) send on 10th :doh: I thought OH wanted it for sentimental reasons but seems not so I thought I'd give it one go on kinda-Gumtree then Freecycle it. Was just about to list it on Freecycle! :o

    SM I tried everything on, and if it didn't look good to me or OH it went in the bag. If it looked good to OH but not me it went on a separate pile, most of which went into the bag when he wasn't looking, and if I liked it and he didn't I accused him of calling me fat and hung it back up :D

    I read that as "if it didn't look good ON me or OH..." as if your OH had been trying it all on too! :o :rotfl:

    I probably wouldn't SM but I am ruthless when it comes to baby bundles :)

    It's not too bad SM, if it stay's at that price it's less than £1 an item for mainly 'next' clothing.

    Bundle's of clothes really confuse me on ebay, sometime's they go really expensive for only a couple of things which aren't great makes then other time's you get fantastic stuff dirt cheap. 90% of Isla's clothes have come via ebay though!

    Elle, OH and I have a running joke on his FB page that he wears my clothes :rotfl:

    He's about a foot taller than me and much broader, so the reality is that I wouldn't let him wear my clothes and stretch them all out.
