    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.


    Rosie, I was going to car boot them... I thought maybe £1 a plant sounded reasonable.... My peppers never took :(

    I was going to do peas, runner beans, french beans etc etc keep a few of each for me and then car boot the rest.

    Evening all,

    Everyone keeping busy i gather. Well still listing on ebay non stop. Sold 3 items today doesnt sound a lot but still netted nearly £100 for the 3 so well pleased. 2 weeks until i go away on holiday with OH and DD with our mates and their DD. So happy to get some ebay sales and money for that as well. Still got hundreds of items to photo and list. Websites all going well. Few more ideas as well for business plans that i need to research.

    Getting issues with a website as well. I have built everything using a program called EASY WEBSITE PRO. However i dont know how now to get it hosted and domain name and where to put it to upload to the server. Anyone more tech minded here?

    Hi nikki :) sorry to hear about OH's gran, guess it is easier when someone's older but you still miss them don't you, poor oH. My grandma's been very poorly today so my brother's said I might like to get through this coming week, I hate this, I just want her to get better, even though I know she won't, grrr. Stupid stupid cancer. Am going to get the genetic thing done as both grandma and my mum have now had it. Blerghh. I don't have the words today.
    Has anyone heard from Saucy lately? Just wondering how she was getting on. Just sold the phone for £311 and the buyer wants to collect and pay in person and has given me his email...hmm. Am unimpressed by this and if he doesn't sort it out and pay by Paypal I shall be offering someone else it as I don't trust dodgy people who want to come round with a handful of notes. TBH if it was a smaller item I wouldn't be so bothered as I've sold hair straighteners on Ebay to someone local before, but something about it just seems off to me. Or do you think I'm being paranoid? :)
    -ETA he's paid by Paypal hurray, now I can finally go to bed and recover from last night :)
    I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick @ss.... and I'm all out of bubblegum.
