    Evening all - things have been a bit hectic and still are. Just trundled on tonight to see what was going on and realised that because I'd deleted my signature, and, in a completely unrelated move - cleared out most of my webspace (where the big spreadsheet list was being hosted), it must have looked like I'd vanished off the face of the earth. I haven't, but am mainly struggling with a backlog of work and the total bloody insanity of listing 100 records at once and having to parcel off 31 of them in the morning. It's brilliant to see the momentum and success you guys are having, and I hope to be back on that trail soon - as I'm sure will Mrs B. I have a more pressing deadline coming up - the start of April sees the return of the mother-in-law and so both financial and physical shape have to be better by then...
    Fully anticipate getting everything (including lists) back up and running by this time next week so until then, keep on keeping on.

    You've killed all the conspiracy theories.....was rather enjoying them!:rotfl::rotfl:
    Ebay can be a huge PITA when you have to actually parcel:eek: up the goods you have sold!
    A wee tip....I've been cutting out and saving my name & addresses from junk mail and taping these onto my parcels as sender details...I got so fed up writing the same stuff over and over....Also saves the pain of shredding junk mail too! Double Whammy !:D
    Must learn not to count chickens before they are hatched!!!!:D

    Every day is a new challenge not a new problem!:p

  • Collective sigh of relief - the Bloaters are OK and Mr B. hasn't deserted us.
  • Return of the mother in law sounds like it could be a big blockbuster :)

  • Welcome back Mr B! :T

    Does this mean our vigilante gang is no longer required? :( :rotfl:

    That's a very normal explanation Mr B :(. I was holding out for the neighbour who looks like she works at the 'dodgy place' holding you against your will until you explained what you were doing with all the cardboard :).

    Glad all is well in Bloater land :T.

    Where is MIL returning from?
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    I've been ill all week with this cold/flu thingy, its really nasty, gone sick which I feel bad about. Its been dragging on for about 5 weeks now, I called the Drs as I felt they needed an appointment, basically they fobbed me off telling me to drink lots of fluid and take paracetemol, vitamins etc. I'm hoping I'll be better for Monday to go back to work, but last night I reckon I had 3 hours sleep, cannot rest.

    The good side is that I've lost 2 Ilbs, I thought it would have been more but I guess due to the fact I'm hardly eating the body is going into starvation mode..

    Ive also had some other fortunate news from Santander. I used to have a cahoot account and I read on the debt forums about people claiming money back from Santander as they may have been naughty upping their charges.

    Emailed before xmas, forgot about it and yesterday got a cheque through the post for £560.

    So I was 17 stone, now 16 stone 12

    Have been very fortunate to raise £1360 of £2000
