    Just a heads up that it's free listing weekend on the bay! :j

    Sorry to gatecrash your thread Tilly, but I've seen a few people on here mention that it's free listing on eBay this weekend, every time I try and list it's threatening to charge me :(. Anyone any idea why?

    Apols again...as you were ;)

  • Hi RoaringTwenties, I'm guessing it's an invitation only as I've been unable to list FOC. It seems to happen quite often :(

  • Confession time :o

    I've done nothing all afternoon, no baking, no walking, absolutely nothing except having a nap :o:o

    Fab time at church, Mr T went to town and bought some walking type shoes and then we came home and relaxed.

    I am however, just going to get ready to walk the hounds :rotfl:

    Yes, I believe it is indeed invitation only. As you say, they seem to be doing that more often - maybe they are trying to reduce the volume of stuff that gets listed so they stagger their invites.

    If you don't get an email from ebay telling you have free listing this weekend, then you don't. :(

  • Evening, thanks to you all for popping by and commenting. I've really appreciated it.

    Dogs walked and winter spiced duck for dinner. Thanks James Martin.

    Shopping list written up for April (weekly) and although I still have lots of jobs to do, I'm glad we've had a restful day. We all needed it.

    Weather has been strange. We managed to walk without getting soaked, but shortly after getting back it poured again. Sun with blue sky, rain, hail, snow, rain etc.

    Busy week ahead but looking forward to Mothering Sunday next week. Celebrating mum's life and she will be back with us :)

    Have a good week, Tilly x x x

    Sorry, only just seen this. :o
    I had no idea it was invite only. I just saw it at the bottom of my screen yesterday morning.
