    For those who have been sharing Paulas link for the missing Hull man who used to be a friend of hers. Its bad news I'm afraid.. His body has been found although not formally identified.
    Paula has so much on her plate at the moment too. Thought I would update you so you know about it if you are in touch with her at all. She hasn't seen him for a long time but still horrible for her I think

    well DH got home from parents evening at 7 and is going out to play in a gig at 8 and my head is still spinning.
    have had a pleasant day though and at least we had plenty of fruit and yoghurts in the house today!

    You're a sweetheart, thank you, and everyone. Just bobbing on as have got bits to do but yes, it's so awful to hear, the way the facebook group members were talking about him, I was really hoping he'd have wandered off for a bit to clear his mind - he'd been having problems apparently - aand some of the people that posted were saying they'd had relatives that went missing for a few days or weeks but came back - just can't believe it, his poor wife, she has two little boys with him and had been saying the older one had been asking where his dad was...I'm fine, feeling better but just shocked, has been a weird day as I've been doing silly things with DD1 for her birthday and then heard about this.
    Anyway I wanted to show everyone the happy recipient of Toots' work;

    -haven't got time to read back but will catch up tomorrow and big massive hugs to everyone, you're all brilliant and will speak soon xx xx xx
    I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick @ss.... and I'm all out of bubblegum.

    Paula - hugs.

    Finally got my refund from the seller on eBay. Contacted seller, no avail, raised dispute and seller agrees refund, 14 days later no refund and no response to comms. So escalated to eBay again and the £3.51 is back in my account (not much but still!!) Left my first neg too.

    And I have a second item I haven;t received, Have emailed the seller but what happens if they don;t respond. Will eBay think its dodgy that ive raised to 'not received' claims?
