    Hi everyone,

    Back from car boot. got there really late and had a hopeless pitch nowhere near the others but after 3 hours made back my £10 entrance and an extra £25. so not too bad. still have loads left to ebay though.
    Next week might head down there early for better pitch. luckily weather stayed dry but cold.
    We always have slugs every year and I put little plant pots, plastic cups or old mugs in the garden, buried to about half inch/ inch sticking out and put a bit of john smiths in (or similar) they always get filled with slugs every day, once I left one for a week and it was filled to the brim. even when slugs were lying drunk dead, others were still clambering for a sip. lol
    works every time.
    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.

    Oh Nikki - I am sorry.... but wow 94!

    Not quite sure whats happened today but I have had 5 sales this afternoon on ebay! I would be a very happy bunny if I did that everyday!!

    Potted up loads of tomato plants, over 100... then there's the lupins to go, and then the other seeds to sow.... Hopefully I should get a fair few pennies from this venture

    Off to list on ebay now, pop back later!

    Hi all,
    Nikki sorry to hear your sad news.

    Mambury how are you getting rid of your tomato plants I have far too many but apart from freecycle and giving some to friends I don,t know what to do with them. I have a load of peppers too and only have room for 3 or 4 plants.
