    Rufus - I would just do them without the inner. People will appreciate the lower postage charges more, and they are cheap enough to pick up - They are about £1.50ish from Wilkinsons. If you supply the inner - you've obviously got to charge for that too, plus the higher postage charges. By keeping the price as low as you can you are going to get more buyers imo.

    Giggles - did you do the listings hun? Come on - think of your totals this month. They'll be fab with all those items listed. :)

    Bunbun - how are things with you?

    I've been thinking about Twinkle - she should be back from Hong Kong soon shouldn't she?

    Right, I've forgotten who it is with the OH who's a postie. I only found out this week that if he shows his ID badge, he can get into English Heritage sites for FREE. Two adults and up to six kids. :) We've just been to the most local one this afternoon. We took a picnic and had a fab time and best of all, saved £25.00 entry. :D It's great to know now the kids holidays are coming up!

    Kec - how you doing? Not heard anything, no hassle though take your time

    rufus - why dont you offer the facility with and without. Adding postage and cost for cushion inner.

    elysia - good news on heritage sites. If anyone goes to wales - welsh ones are free. the national museum at st fagans , cardiff good day out and free

    giggles - sorry about the job, but think positive, the right ones out there for you (((hugs)))
