Toots - Your not alone, lots of people have commented about the same problem on the eBay user forums. Makes me wonder if they have either created a bug to stop excessive listing (cynical sarah) or so many people are listing the selling thing has crashed? :mad:
PigPen - I hope you get things sorted out but make sure you get to your appt, I know it is such a long wait normally. :think:
FCC - Thanks so much for this already seeing an improvement. Bad me though, I looked at the list and thought 'I did that last week, I have to do it again!!' :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Thanks Sarah - thats not so bad if its not only me - I am bit cynical about it too - its also very convenient that there is no customer support on a sunday evening *rolls eyes* - we will see what sort of reply i get.

piggers after school club??? your sister? OH drops you at the hospital and then gets the others? ASk DD1, DS1 or GF to finish early (just this once) - it important to get the scan done.Any of the Mums who would have them or neighbours or friends? Phone the hospital and try to get an earlier/later slot? Dont give up - there must be a way!

After school club is full, OH is taking me to Freja's appointment but I can't leave Freja at home and I can't take her in the MRI room.. If he collects the 3 girls and brings them to the hospital we don't all fit in the car to go home and I would have to sit in the waiting room with the other 2 for about an hour while they did it. I don't speak to any of the mums at school.. or any of the neighbours (all foreign or students or both!). Friends live out of town, are at work, have their own children to pick up elsewhere or are on here!!! She has the last appointment I think.. I might have just thought of something..

We go to Frejas appt.. Collect all of them at 3.. OH goes to pick DD1 up from college (she finishes at 3:30ish) they should be back by about 3:45ish so we should, possibly be able to get to the hospital by about 4pm.. so should be ok.. I'll go speak to OH and DD1 now.. see if it is workable.. Tuesday DD1 has study period last thing so would easily manage it..

I am soooooooooooooooooooooo hacked off - I really got my act together and got photos done for the free listing - put some stuff on last night - once the new fred was up i went over to ebay and it just keeps asking me to sign ih but I am already but as soon as i strat to sell it keeps going back to the sign in page so i have missed the free listing - I have emailed them but there is no-one on duty on a sunday so i wont here anything until tomorrow or maybe tuesday - I am gutted - i could cry!

toots xx

Ebay sometimes gets a bit glitchy.. it is likely it is very busy with it being free listing so couldn't sign you in.. try again after restarting the computer and try again tomorrow.

pigpen

Nope that won't work.. DD1 doesn't finish until 4 tomorrow.. poop!

Jojo_the_Tightfisted

I'm back from lurking...only to find that I will most likely be moving into a lovely house by the end of the month

The last time I moved, it was me, DD1 and a backpack with 2 nappies and a change of underwear...DD1 has left home and I have DD2, 3 cats & 17 years' of the flat's capr to deal with.

HELP!!!!!!!!!!

Triker

Aww Toots, don't be hacked off, I tend not to list on the free weekends for this very reason, I can never get in, sign in or the listing takes forever so I give up. Chin up chuck. xxx

Piggers arghhhh on your behalf, so sorry your Mum won't, don't see why not, she's only round the corner, how about your sisters? Not really fair is it when you do birthdays and cakes and suchlike for them? Or am I being out of line here?

Lamewolf, happy anniversary hun, have a lovely day together. xxx
