From Trash to Cash: the Dribbling never ends

Spill the beans then Amber- what have you and Saucy been up to?!

HopeAndDriftWood

Glad I could help, Amber.

Got a provisional operation date...I'm feeling worried!

Anyone here selling on Etsy at the moment?

Saucy got me some writing work - so I must have earned about €100 so far. Okay, it's gone on boring stuff like bills, but it's money I wouldn't have had without the Dribblers. Wow. I can update my signature.

amber - is there a call for an English Bookshop in Seville? maybe an idea?

HopeAndDriftWood

I'll intervene here and say if any more becomes available I'll recommend others, if anyone is interested. I had hoped I'd be able to do more a while ago but with the economy like it is they aren't employing at the moment.

Edit: Mmmm Seville. I cannot wait...

Edit Edit: I feel mean now. I wish I could help everyone. I can't even help myself most of the time though, lol.

You need this op, Saucy, so get it over and done with. Going in to hospital is scary, but I'll be metaphorically holding your hand. Plus MAP can sell you loads of books to keep you occupied. Plus you can always come here to recuperate. And stop apologising, woman, you'll be apologising for breathing someone else's air next.

HopeAndDriftWood

It might need a back brace for a while after...I guess that's what worries me. And whether OH will be okay on his own. And everything, really. I'm not good at this kind of stuff....

I can take my laptop into hospital with me, though, so at least I'll have you guys

Skint, I'm in Barcelona, Saucy's moving to Seville. There is an English bookshop here but I'm not that impressed with it, the quality of the stock is not great and their prices are high. I did toy with the idea once of having a private lending library, not sure how viable that is but it's one to file away under possible ideas. Or having a stall at the weekly book market near my house.

Saucy, OH can look after himself. Stop worrying!

HopeAndDriftWood

Oooohh Amber you should get a stall! You could sell on the books M+P sells you, after you've read them. Then you wouldn't have to make much to make a profit, and you could see how popular it is.

A book market...wow

Do orange trees grow in Seville? I've always wanted to grow an orange tree.

sorry Amber, it was a toss up between Barcelona and seville! i would give the market a try. next time i'm over i'll use my 10kg handluggage and 15k hold luggage for books, be cheaper to get somebody to pop over than pay postage - i volunteer and will get my cigs while i'm there, or when we ALL come to visit we'll bring a holdall each full of books and get you sorted! like the idea of that a bunch of nutters selling books at a spanish market, how soon would you like them!!!!!!!!!
edit - i meant the books not the nutters
