Conclusion done and waiting for my mum to email it back to me then just the question to write. Have asked her for a couple of suggestions as I really am not sure how to approach that. After what seems like ages when I was stuck at 6000 ish words I now have 13,467! I will lose some of that once my quotes are referenced properly but I am not too worried about that. My mum is a star and I think a huge bunch of flowers will be on their way to her thins week for all her help.
Ash cloud permitting I will be home tomorrow and able to fly. I know OH has done all his washing and ironing for me getting back so I only have to do mine. Really busy 2 weeks at work so I am going to try and ease back in gently, don't think I have been flying properly for well over a month. Glad there are no stars because it takes the pressure off.MFW 2025 No. 7 £1530/£2700

It was that and Richie was on it quite a bit - hence my post! They were talking to him and Jon about the relationship between singer and guitarist, and showed some clips of gigs.

Hello all, sorry have only skim read todays posts so hugs to all in need and relative vibes where needed xx
Very Lucky chick, notso(can't resist nosing at pics!!!)
Have found my fathers girlfriend via facebook and haven't seen or heard from them since having DD (7). Got a long message from her this morning telling me of her work, her sons work and her grandchildrens careers as well as what my aunts uncles have all been up to. My father, apparantly is quite ill.....was on a heart transplant list for a tear but taken off 18 months ago. 3 year waiting list for a fake thing(?)....so basically, nothing they can do....he could arrest at any time.....but he seems to be coping.
Sorry for the lengthy post, I don't expect any feedback, just needed to tell someone not related, ITMAS, as had written him, and her, off, a long time ago as no-one kept in touch.(I phoned them when I had DD and was congratulated but nothing since)
Once again sorry for the long post.....xx0 -

Hi folks :wave:
Ironing done
Floors done
Ebay listing done, or this free weekend there is more, but tbh I've had enough, 6 items have bids, and I have several 'watchers' on other items, so that is a good sign.
OH had a good flight back and a nice hol, just seem the photos he took of adopted grandson, and wow he does have a bump on his forehead, a real bruise is coming out!! (kids and bed trampoline!!)
Hope you have all had a good day, hugs xx

Hi, yes sorry, Im fine!! My post did sound a bit a bit miserable, didnt it!!! :rotfl:
Ive been trying to list stuff on Ebay - since 2pm, Ive photographed and listed 8 things!!!! Its just slightly frustrating that it takes so long....
but I WILL empty my house and I WILL make some money
Jo
I find the best way is to photograph things as I stick them in the ebay pile, down load on to lappy the photos into a folder I have called ebay, and write the words and save in a word doc at the same time, then when a free listing weekend comes along, it is a case to just up loading as most of the work is done, and filling in the title and selection the right section.
