From Trash to Cash: Dribbling a river

jo70mo

Hi Nixi, Mabel and Mambury.
Sales sound good Mambury. yay for Pierced Monkey!
Mabel here are my ideas non of which might appeal!
-Go swimming.
-Go to local art gallery/museum/exhibition.
-go to tourist information and get leaflets and info about what there is going on for free locally and play at being tourist for a day. or make a plan for doing so on another day.
-Go to library and get some good books/ inspirational books out and start reading them.
-do some baking.
-read up on things to do with all the produce you are growing eg chutneys/ drying etc
-gather together some stuff for charity shop and take it.
-think of some other things you would like to learn about (other than whistling) and hunt down some info on it.
-give yourself an imaginary budget of £2000 and go window shopping in local town and decide what you would spend it on down to the last penny.

Librarys a good idea-i've read all the books that MummyandP sent me ...wonder if they have any on how to separate mating snails....
Will avoid town as went there today and spent £15 i didnt really have let alone £2000 lol and as for swimming...lets just say that beached whale doing doggy paddle is not a good look lol. Def library tho-I tend to forget its there for months and then go through phases of going there every week so thanks for reminding me!

Congrats on the sales Mambury thats fab!! hope it keeps up and you'll be a multi millionaire this time next year :-)...do you want a cleaner?!

Good point! urrgghh turned my stomach I can tell you :-/ lol

Need a plan for tomorrow-got nothing to do and I think its going to rain so gardening is out. The plan to tweak the website is out the window as I've now done all I can do without paying someone to do it (which I cant afford.) Question is what can i do...I need to keep myself occupied so i'm not just sitting here thinking about cutting down on the tablets and thinking myself into being depressed :-/

Okay... list of jobs for Mabel

- ideas for Blog for Nixi...
- learn about twitter
- update facebook fan page
- think up promotion strategy for the next six months - eg one item a month on promotion... bogof's, sales, etc etc
- research possible new products for both sites
- set up Etsy shop / Folksy etc etc
- make stock for above shops
- design new ranges for main site and new shops


that enough for ya?? I can add my list of jobs to that as well if you like!!
