From Trash to Cash: Dribbling a river

moneymabel

Welcome back Bingo! actually we've been pretty good..i havent mentioned merkins for at least 10 pages and the ebay shoe selling seems to have been forgotten! a lot of us have started business thanks to the original thread and are doing a lot of skill trading..jewellery for pr,pr for website building etc which is good like a mini co-operative.

Oh knacking hell, now I can't stop obsessing on checking Ebay to see if anyone's watching my topper! Gahhh xx

jo70mo

sorry Paula but that phrase just made me laugh out loud.
I love the dribblers.

Don't be sorry, I think it's great! I'm tired and belligerent and I love the dribblers too :):) xx

Thanks all ! Good to know I have support but this is (for me) a biggy which is too sensitive to talk about...but I know I could turn to any of you to ask for advice if I felt I needed it, and that in itself is wonderful. Thank you! If anything getting on with 'normality' is the best thing to do!

Paula - cagne used to promote his ebay wares on FB and I always thought that was a good idea....might be worth a shot? and if you let me have the link I'd twitter it and put it on my blog? I need to do a new post asap anyway......

Wow - Bingo, last person I expected to see. Great to hear from you.

Oh Nixi can I? That would be brilliant, I'll PM you it now, thank you I don't know if it'd be any good FB-ing it though? And you know we're here for encouragement and support so I do hope it helps xx xx

Now another bunch of dribblers might have said p**s off to bingo land but us lot here just aint like that.We now own a virtual village of smirkentree and you are welcome most of the shops have traders some occasionally become vacant and i'm sure we can find you a market stall .Unfortunately the position of mayor or in our case mayoress is filled by I've just elected Jo lol and the chair person of the council is Amber she whips our butt when we are not making money,me well I just write a column in the local rag that is edted by Nixi and produced by dilli .Mabel keeps the classifieds full fnarrfnarr.Whilst the rest run local shops we have bakeries ,jewellers,beautician where you been nikki,knitting,sewing,oh and our own pottery sounds good paula lol.there is also a pet rescue centre.
The village has supported all on the quest for £10,000 and even those just here for the banter.So Bingo please feel welcome pull up a chair and give us some wisdom however I feel chances are you will appreciate the wisdom/dribble that you find here will be a fair trade .
Evening all dribblers away to get my wine must be due chapter 7 lol

jo70mo

yay Elly. go Elly. Go Elly. whoop whoop. not sure I'll be around much longer tonight but looking forward to chapter 7. woohoo.

Bingo - welcome back

Everyone else, and I know I have missed something, much love and hugs and hope everyone is well and fairly happy!!

Many apologies for not being around the past week. This new job is soooooooooooo brain draining and am generally shattered by the time I get home..am however loving every single minute of it.


Was sat here earlier thinking that we are over half way through the challenge and what exactly have I done to earn anything towards the 10k, was feeling a bit dissappointed with myself.......but then had a bit more thinking (yes I think too much lol) and realised that when I started this challenge and met you all that I had no job, no money was just about to lose the house I was renting and very few prospects and now look at me!!! I owe much to you all as well as myself and am grateful, very grateful! Now however, I want to do even more....so been thinking about little projects to start with as want the extra money to build a small safety net to fall back onto if the need ever arises again!

WOW this has turned into a mamoth post, think I will take a deep breath now and get another hot choccie!! Have really missed you all but think I am getting on top of the new job so should be able to be around a bit more.

love and hugs xxxxx
