Shame about the diet, but it might not be as bad as you think. Sometimes you lose weight even when you think you should have gained.
That's a super amount of money, my stuff goes for very little, having said that, I do start quite a few bits off at 99p to avoid listing charges. I'm sure I read somewhere that it will be a free listing weekend, I've been saving some bits just for this occasion.

Hello dear friends,
Long and not so Easter like weekend. Had unexpected houseguests for 3 days and when they left this morning I almost cried with joy. Rainy here so the beasts haven't yet had their stroll so will do shortly.
Loads of wash happening, work exploded Friday so having houseguests, working and cooking for 5, all I want to do is collapse. However it isnt a holiday in America so work on we must.
Did manage to list a few things so might make my £10/day April challenge. I had 2 coach handbags that have 60 watchers so we will see.

Hopefully, with 60 watchers you'll have a bidding war and make lots of money - fingers crossed for you!
At least you've got today to recover from your houseguests, even if it is taken up with washing.
We missed you, but you're back safely in the fold now!

Hi
Good that you're back! Boo to houseguests. Such a waste of the long weekend!!
I have to say handbags seem to go well. I sold a Russell & Bromley one recently. £55 I think in the end and 29 watchers at its best. Unfortunately now all out of expensive handbags...have sold them all!!
Have a good week

Hello dear friends,
Since I worked though the bank holiday on a work emergency as well as house guests and all the rest, I asked my boss for 2 comp days for tomorrow and Thursday.
My OH is having surgery tomorrow at a good London hospital so I may not be around much.
Have any of you read the book by francine jay called the joy of less, a minimalist living guide ?
It is really helping me get rid of some of the things I have been holding on to for a long time without ever touching.
The sun is out this morning which is nice.
