    You kept your diary quiet :-)

    lol. Just me mumbling away to myself mostly ;) Usually write at work when random thoughts pop into my head. There's not really much order to it as I'm sure you'll see!:p

    Nice to see you popping in. Like having visitors me - keeping me on track :D

    Worked 14 hours overtime this weekend :T Think 7h is 1.5 x time and 7h is double time but better check this tomorrow before I get too excited!!

    Another 2 hours before my e bay listings end - doesn't look too hopeful - think my shoes and old jeans are heading for the charity bag. No bad thing I guess.

    Well done on spending less, that's great! There's still hope for your ebay sells, most people bid at the last minute. I had some stuff go out Thursday, and in the last few seconds someone bought 7 items - no one had even been watching them. I was very chuffed with that!
