    Hi Radish, don't worry my bag and shoe buying days are behind me :). In fact I am extremely well behaved now, to the point of needing to buy stuff and not buying anything :rotfl:

    Last item has finished on eb@y - £26 :T:T. It's been a well worth session and has cleared more stuff from the garage. Just under £260 but fees to come off that.

    That's going straight to the mortgage

    Anyone thinking of getting back into it, get stuck in - I really dislike it but it is worth it.

    I think you will single handedly have placed eBay sellers at an all time high tilly - you're like a wee messiah....whatever you say, the crowds will follow;)

    Hi Natty, I can't believe you are posting, I would be a jibbering wreck.

    Seriously though, I really find eb@y a pain in the butt, but maybe not doing it every week/month, means you get a bit of a buzz. I'm loving the space in the garage, I'll be able to buy more loo rolls :rotfl::rotfl:

    I have a 99p bid on something already. I'm gonna be rich I tell you :rotfl:.
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    I can't do anything until the police arrive, so the diaries are keeping my company:)
