Royal Fail are a complete joke. The amount of goods they have lost I have posted - I have to claim on there insurance at least once a month!

Ok, so David Cameron is now PM, I'm hoping the fact that its a Lib Dem co-alition might mean that us poor folks aren't completely screwed??

Mind you if what everyones saying is correct then I won't have a job shortly and considering I'm technically employed by the crown I won't be impressed!! Redundancy here I come!!

ETA: I'll just apply for a job as Camerons beautician - qualified in the application of Fake Bake and all that!!

Hi everyone, hope you've all had a great day.

Just found this which really made me laugh, thought I'd share: -

Got free tickets to watch a play at the local theatre tonight (which I'm ashamed to say I didn't even know existed!!) by an amateur group called Ecclesfield Priory Players. The play was a psychological thriller called Dead Guilty. It was really good, I'm so impressed. Had a lovely night with lots of (rather old) people, a nice cup of tea in the intermission, and some new friends. Great night all in all.

Well done on all the sales HHH. Ebay not doing well for me this time. Have a couple of watchers on some items, but nothing has sold. I am still selling loft "junk" at the moment rather than bought to sell stuff, so that might be why. Need to get some space in my loft ready to start buying real stock.

Joey - That cat is amazing!

Lol, I know!! I wonder if he makes a noise when he looks like he's singing? I've been reading up about Japanese Bobtails for my blog, and they apparently are really talkative and try to have conversations with people. I sooo want one!

Hi all, hope you are all well - or getting there.

Thanks Joey, that cat was fantastic!

My cat, Poo, talks to me, although not always in miaows, she usually taps me on my arm and shows me what she wants. Sometimes it's just written across her face what she wants. Bless her little heart!

I've never sold anything on Ebay so watching and learning from your experiences if you don't mind. It's sounding kind of scary, liking the figures you're all earning, but not liking all the wrapping and posting and losing of posted items! I keep thinking I'd like to give it a go but I really don't have anything to sell. :-( I have some LOTR's figurenes but whenever I've looked they haven't been selling so I don't think there would be any point. I guess I'll have to kep them for 25 years and wait for the trilogy to be remade (like Nighmare On Elm Street lol).

Aaah speak of the devil, the little Pooster has just told me she wants to go out. She's such a little sweetheart!

Thanks all, good night and have a great day tomorrow.

Basically, if you take a bag of clothes to Oxfam and it contains "at least one item of M&S clothing" they will give you £5! Yay!

This is the link from which I found the M&S link.
