From Trash to Cash: Dribbling a river

Hi all,

Evening all. Hi Babymoo, good to see you back again.

Those shootings were terrible, glad it's over, just awful for families involved though.

Rosie - According to mumsnet, ebay sent out emails about free listings on Sunday - but i also just checked on ebay and can't see it anywhere either.
I'd love a pimms now too mmm - i'll have to wait 'til Friday as i don't drink on work nights, it'll taste even better by then

babymoo

Evening all- saved my pound today by making a birthday card for my sis instead of buying one. Just realised that puppy has chewed of the shoots on my raspberry cane and eaten the top off it as well- little sod. Made a fence this afternoon so she hopefully won't get on there again grrrrrr
