    Well that was £12 on the books, so not bad after all.

    I've also had one of my non payers on ebay pay up now, so that's another thing gone.

    Good stuff.

    One of my payment stragglers paid up today, there is one person left to pay. It's annoying because it means repeated trips to the post office when I could have done them all in one go. :mad:

    hey am so jealous of the water butt...we have been looking for a big enough container for one that we can have at the allotment for months now...oil drums, anything..but in the end gave up and bought one:eek:

    Think we will try and have several though so will keep on looking

    Well done on the sales. We made a bit last weekend but those Amazon books could do with shifting

    Good to see the sun out..makes such a difference to my mood!

    Yes, it's so frustrating when people take ages to pay up. It's not a huge deal for me to get to the post office, but I'd much rather just do one trip!

    I've got another NPB on the go which I can close tomorrow. :mad:

    Thanks Brizzle, our current water butt is a skip dive find :o It's nice that we'll have another one though, and at this house we can actually connect it to a downpipe as well.

    Love the sun :D
