    Hello ;)

    Boss is away most of this week! Let's celebrate!! :j:j:j

    £5.35 TCB payout requested.. That will end up being a massive TT :rotfl:

    I need to investigate a couple of things: cash 4 clothes & mobile phone recycling.. That should help to slightly increase the Lillypad Fund..

  • Good news on the mobile phone sales.

    I'm starting to look at my books again and be a little more ruthless. Saddens me to see books go but I could do with more space.

    Cash for clothes helps a little with OPs - I take mine there to get 60p/ kilo (50p/ kilo if they collect). I save it up until it's worthwhile and combine it with a trip to the tip (next street) :D

    I have about 8 mobiles in my wardrobe I need to recycle towards OPs.... oops!

    To be fair Radish, they look rather striking against the mahogany shelves :D.

    Froggy - happy 'yippee boss is away' week :j.
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    This reminds me, I really should dig out my old mobiles. I'm sure there must be 3 or 4 knocking about somewhere at home. They're ancient though, not sure there'd be too much value in them. Any recommendations of a good place to try?
