    I think if your kid can do that at two, she she start her gcses soon, thats clever going. It would take me longer than the time a person goes to the loo to submit bids on three listings
  • well unless at the age of 33 I had my first 'senior moment' and don't remember bidding, I can only assume she did it and I don't know how either.
    anyway I have sorted it now I hope so thanks to those who did help so this thread can buried now

    Anything is possible. Lot of people say my little spaniel can't count. I just tell them to put three cookies in your pocket and try and give him only one. Then see what happens.

    wheter or not the littl'un did the bidding is irrelevent. the OP wanted a bit of advice, not to be chastised.

    i too find it hard to believe that a two year old could do it, but stranger things have happened.

    George W Bush became president of the USA for example!!!
    Never put off till tomorrow what you can do today!:mad:
    Cos if you do it today and like it...You can do it again tomorrow.. :p

    Yeah, when that story hit, the pink car had just been relisted... hmmm!

    Great publicity for the listing!
    My TV is broken! :cry:
    Edit: refunded £515 for TV 1.5 years out of warranty - thank you Sale of Goods Act! :j

    I sure hope is just a "senior moment" as you said and not something serious like schizophrenia.
