pigpen

Tidied up my harddrive.. 514mb of rubbish binned.. and some pics which I had duplicate copies of... much tidier!

Found some more bits to ebay over the weekend.. I have 11 items ending tomorrow all but 1 have watchers and 4 have bids.. FLING! It might not be a lot of money but it all adds up!

DD1's prom dress rammed back in wardrobe.. I found a skirt I didn't know I had :eek: I binned an empty box off the landing and rummaged through the ebay stuff..

I have half a binbag of guff for charity shop!

Boys are away to lightwater valley with god squad tomorrow so I will get through their drawers in the morning if I can and drag DD2 to get her shoes checked!

Morning

WM is on OH got it to work last night, it seems once we had dragged it out of its housing, and got the back off it, the drive belt had come off the drum and motor drive, goodness know why that would happen.

Seems his DIL had an emergency section to have the baby, he still has not been able to contact is son, but his daughter rang him and updated him, but mother and babe are ok.

Listies at the ready
Ebay listing, listed 22 so far this morning, rest to do later.

Back later

Morning All

Got quite a bit I want to do today both out and about and at home. We're having a clothes swap at SW between 10 and 1 so I want to go to there for a bit, I've got some shopping to do and there's loads to be done here.

Hugs SSL

Right I'm going to put a load in the WM and see where I go from there.

Have a good day all

Hugs
