    £1 to my Mum today :)

    Hoping to earn some extra pennies tonight doing some strimming - I have never used a strimmer before though so could get interesting!

    It is. Although there is nettles and weeds as well apparently, can just see me getting stung!

    Strimming went well - meaning a slightly better payment of £10 to my Mum today :)

    Only thing with strimming is that it throws bits everywhere. I was covered in grass then felt a tickling, looked inside my top and there was a massive spider in there :eek: Hopped around trying to flick it out - I'm pretty sure the bloke across the road saw my bra :o

    :eek: I can't stand spiders. I would have freaked out!! You've just put me off strimming for life :rotfl:

    I'm defnitely not a fan of the big ones but can at least deal with them now. I used to majorly freak out but since spending all that time in Africa and Borneo I'm better with bugs. Think it was the total overload - I couldn't spend 6 months running away!

    And there's worse things to be put off than strimming :rotfl:

    As far as I know Jody stopped her diary, she does pop in here from time to time though. I'm sure she must be DF soon from what I remember.

    And yes, she is engaged! :D

    Going to give and do some eBay tonight :(

    I've been thinking - I always end up missing the free listing weekends because I'm either working or out so I'm going to just start making use of the 100 free 99p listings a month instead.

    I've been too worried about how much I get for each thing, meaning I end up not selling it at all which is silly, considering I don't want the stuff anyway otherwise I wouldn't be selling it :rotfl:

    So, it all goes on for 99p and if that's what it sells for then so be it. At least I'll have my cupboard back :D
