    Have made a deciscion today to sell my gold...and put the money in the savings towards mortgage.

    I used to be quite materialistic in years gone by and used to love wearing all my gold.In my new quest of my new me...am going to be losing weight,getting fit and healthy,have nice hair and nice clothes and will accessorise with costume jewellry so the gold is surplus to requirements.So best to get some money for it.
    Have read the article on here and will go armed to the jewellers with the prices of gold and sovereigns next week so that I can negotiate.

    It will be interesting to see how much they offer on the gold Taxi. Has turned out nice here now, so hoping i can get the last of the washing out for a blow around.

    Nice goals too :)

    My son is in Glasgow(or quite near) Beanie.

    As for the gold I expect to get good money as I have a full sovereign,a witch and two heavy chains and bracelets and numerous rings in top condition plus a few bits of scrap gold....if I don't like the price then I won't sell.
