    isn't it bizarre how when companies do proper things like cancel policies immediately we all think that they've done something wonderful. I think a few years ago it would have been the least that we expected.

    thanks for the Info on the avon book at least i know it's not my mind which is going, someone did mention it and it's not in the book, thank goodness i'm not going nuts
  • In fairness to the insurance company (It was Pinnacle by the way - we'd be quick enough in different circumstances to name and shame so it's only right to give credit when it's due!) LT, I think technically they SHOULD have said it was 90 days to cancel - that was definately in the policy terms! Not complaining though! :D Next thing is to get the new policy that we do want in place, and cancel two others which will then be useless. Should end up saving us at least £27 per month. :cool:

    oh heck does that mean i need to list lots of crafting items?
    My soul plummets into the pits of despair when i think about selling things on ebay again.
  • I spotted that too and I have stuff to go on so I'll do that while the footy is on tomorrow.

    I need to save up about £6k to put towards a new vehicle for the business if we get a new contract we've gone for. I can use rentals over this summer, but would like to get our own then still charge the "rental costs" so I need to get my butt in gear and save/make as much as possible. Gonna be bloomin hard work but even if we don't get the contract it has given us a new business idea too.
    One small step for ME, one giant leap for my family!

    Thanks for the warning. I buy on eBay but sell on behalf of my sister (she is a bit of a technophobe) and she asked this evening if I would list her latest lots. What good timing :D

    Oops - what happened to the swear filter :)
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

  • Can't stop - frantically sorting out photos and typing text for eBay listings.

    Fairly reasonable day here -
    Logo sorted for business but not sent through to website chap yet.
    NSD (needed sour cream for dinner but sent MrEH for it instead!) which brings me to 6 for the month.
    Money into VSP - now over £50 so mounting up.
    Cheery visit to Great Aunt this afternoon :D
    MrEH bought me a HOOOOOOGE Toblerone for a non-valentines pressie :j

    All good!

    ps -not sure re swear filter - it always used to catch that one didn't it? I seem to recall we used to have to disguise it! Tell you what though, I'm !!!!ed off with all this typing of listings! ;) (Ha - still stops that one then!)
