Sorry to hear about your cattery expenses Miss Muppet - at least you know it will be well looked after. Are there any other neighbours that you could ask instead?
Annie - OMG you are doing brilliantly!!! Nearly there!!
I'm going to have to bail out for a couple of days while I get over this bug. I came home from work early yesterday with a high temp and slept from 12.30 yesterday afternoon until 6.30 this morning! I woke up for an hour and a half to be sick!! I've got to go in to work though because I've had quite a lot of time off when the children have been ill lately. I'm just about to have a lemsip and then wrap up super warm before I brave the outside world.
My internet access at work seems to have been stopped as well so I think my boss must have cottoned on to my going on mse from work so it's going to be a fun day....not!

Thats a shame about you internet connection - how dare they!!
Hope your feeling a bit better by end of day.
I have a book listed on Amazon which has a buyer waiting but at a much lower price than I've listed it for (buyer waiting £7 - mine listed at £30) so in a bid to get my total I have just reduced it tp £26 - hope they take the bait???
Might go lower later.0 -
Well I had a a spare pound on gamebookers, gambled it and won £9! I couldn't withdraw it so thought what the hell! Got a few pounds to add soon!0

I'll have to admit defeat! I have no time to carry on at the moment but I'll leave the money in the pot and carry on where I left off in the new year. Good Luck all!2014 GC: £957.61/ £54000

Have been doing OK with this but it is taking a long time to get paid for mystery shopping which should add about another £100. Also have a good few quid tied up in stock for ebay, should add another £100 ish.0

I'm at work and am able to access internet so maybe there was just a problem with it yesterday and I got paranoid because I'm guilty!!
Anyway I got some french translation which has added another 16.29 to my total.:T
Hope you find your book Eager!!

I'm always losing books - you should see my garage!!! I now have nearly 2000 listed and most in dated boxes but there is always one that slips the net and gets into the wrong box - I usually find it 2 days after I have e-mailed buyer to say its lost:rotfl:
Good luck I hope you manage to find it.0
