    Did all the Ebay packing and studied my butt off for a few hours (may have been 5-ish, not too sure!) but not sure i've gotten anywhere other than hi-lighting areas I need to study again :rotfl:. At least I have made a start :).

    I worked for hours yesterday too, very grumpy last night!

    H fellow MSE-ers!

    What a day! Got to work at 8.10am and didn't leave until 6.15....got a feeling it's going to be like this for a while as well now :(. Not too much to report on the money front, still no VAT payment but Quidco are paying me a whole £4.14 in cashback! Bought littleun another book for Xmas on Ebay for £3 today but hanging back on buying too much more at the moment to see how money goes. Posted all my Ebay stuff at lunch and was quite surprised it only came to £7.66 which was much less than i expected!

    My corals end tomorrow night so going to get all the paper shredded and scour the offices for some small boxes to send it in. Still got loads left in the tank so might do some buy it now auctions once these have finished, hope to make about £50 in total on Ebay which makes up for the shift I will miss this weekend :). Still got other bits to put on there too but will do them at the weekend. Need to try and squeeze in some more study this week too, phew, can't keep up with it all!

    Wow, busy, busy, busy!

    Well done on the ebay though, that's good you've got the missed shift covered. :)

    Sounds hectic at work :eek: I hated the year end when I worked in accounts!

    Morning All,

    Sorry for not being around much, PC at home died last night and all my corals were ending on Ebay so I was trying to invoice people from my phone! Sold loads of corals but struggling to pack them all and read nightmares about them all being dead on arrival :(, just hoping most of them survive or I'll be out of pocket! Also got earache too....stress central here at the moment.

    PS - Savings balance now over £1300 :T

    Sorry to hear about your PC at home, that's a nightmare. Do you think it's fixable?
    Hope the corals survive postage ok and your earache clears up :( Brilliant news on the savings total though :j do you have a final figure in mind for the end of the year?

    ps this is Jules :hello:I decided a namechange was prudent! Jx

    Hi Jody

    Fingers crossed for the corals, that could turn into a nice little earner :)

    Boo to the earache, that's horrible, hope it clears up soon xx
