  • Yep what with listing fees (unless FLW), sales charges then immediate PP charges it is getting obscene. Mr T won't let me list anything unless it goes up for a price I'm happy to sell at now. He is probably right.

    As far as I'm concerned, the more they charge the more I've earned so I grit my teeth and pay up :).

    Sneaked a little look down the spreadsheet to see how much I need to pay to knock a month off Mr GG debt and put it into an earlier year.............

    Phew started reading your diary and lost most of the evening! Had a good few chuckles tho and I am in awe of your spread sheets and pots - don't know how you keep up with them. note to self - page 53.
    Away to watch Shameless now - last series seemingly. Hope I can get into it this time as I gave up on last series.

    I have never seen an episode of Shameless. Nor, at the other end of the scale, Downton Abbey. I guess that's why I have so much time to spend on spreadsheets :rotfl:.

    I did however watch Man U get their petulant asses kicked tonight :T.
