    Right, finally managed to list a few things on Ebay with their free listing day so feeling good about that. Don't think I've got any more payments coming before the end of March though. Feels like we've had a bit of a quiet month this month - maybe some more updating due in the next couple of days?

    Although it's been quiet - we've beaten our Feb total already :T

    I'm sure there will be some more updates (including from me) before the end of the month.
