    Tenth Anniversary Combo Breaker
    Hi All
    Ive been having a terrible week, My brother (46) had a massive stroke last wednesday morning and has since had two brain surgeries, they have told us on numerous occasions that we are likely to lose him.
    I have been up the hospital everyday, but stayed at home yesterday so i could get the kids stuff all sorted for school ect.
    I managed to list about 8 items last night on ebay, to try and keep the money flowing a bit, and it help keep my mind focused for an hour or so...
    I got a phone call last night, Great news, he's finally starting to wake up a little,although he's still very poorly, so im back to the hospital later.
    Everyday im shufflin':dance: Proud Padder ~ All Hail The Power of Pad

    I only saw this thread last night its a pretty good idea i think...

    anyway this morning i put some old mobiles through a recycling website for £40 along with £6 cashback for doing it, chased up an old mobile account with credit on it £30 and am gunna put a cheque in bank worth £1.20 which has been sat in a drawer for nearly 6 months - so £77.20 just through been a bit organised, i also stuck a load of stuff on ebay so i'm hoping i average out £10 over whats left of the month by the time its done.
