    Another early one - half 8. It's early to me as I'm not usually out of my AP-induced sleep until about 10, so not bad.

    Have done my wii half hour - flexibility this morning.
    Cleaned the rats out and hoovered my room. All spick and span in here now :D
    Need to trundle off to the shop and somehow get some change for my 20 note as I don't think a bus driver would be too happy to change it. So, I'll probably pick up some fruit and a drink and maybe some ciggies and then I'll be OK - ghastly weather here though so I'll see if it clears up a bit first.

    Didn't go to the shop, it's been tipping it all day. So I'll take the extra for my bus fare out of my pot and pay it back after I come home on Sunday :D

    Managed to do notes for a chapter of one of my OU books....time consuming but I enjoyed it.

    I've also made a decision, I'm going to sell my Wii and my games and get a Kinect and some fitness games for when I'm at Mike's. The main reason is the Wii game just isn't hard enough for me and I've gone back to the Shred.

    Day 1 of it done coincidentally....I'll try and do 2 sessions a day dependant on what else I'm doing.

    Shred day 2 done.
    Also went for a 4km walk and came back with bananas - I LOVE bananas and they were a pound - so not an NSD for me.
    Have also started writing up notes from OU books so I can do some more thinking on it when I get started - uber geek here :D

    Aaaaah! Home at last!

    Went out this morning and rummaged through charity shops, the only thing I found was a book for 1.99.
    So, after lunch and a pee break, we went off to a boot fair, getting lost on the way.
    We managed an hour before it started to rain and stopped the boot fair. My haul included:
    A razor with a a stropper - Rolls Razors
    A dish with glass insert - shall be used for piercings not butter
    A hoodie for a pound
    A lot of books

    Walked about 6km today so a good exercise amount too. Now just relaxing before popping to the pub for a pint and to see a band

    Got some items finishing on eBay today, one will sell for a paltry amount, so the others I'll stick on 30 day BINs and see if that works....I hope so.

    Home again, NSD no 7 has been bagged, and tomorrow I will be trying to give up smoking again and this time I will succeed!

  • Wish i could get the hang of E Bay- sold some things a couple of years ago and then got fed up with that and paypal and hassle. So good luck to you.
