Chel - I'm trying to hold off with the summer stuff, don't think many people will be looking just yet, but in a couple of months I think were onto a winner
Michelle - Ty for the rates x

I'm going to give myself the night off I think, just doing a little bit of rating before a film starts at 8. I think too much moneymaking might send me nuts so some 'me' time is in order tonight, been ages since I've just stuck my feet up and watched tv!

Hope everyones had a fab weekend

hello all not checked in for a while as had an allergic reaction to my sisters dog and couldn't breathe so been asleep a lot.
to those peps who rated me on du - thanks- not forgotten you but just chasing my tail as back to work tomox and my to do list for the hols is longer than ever so i need to address it.
congrats nicky on the 5th - same day as my little un. Hope as they are both born on the same day they have same lovely personalities as mine is a treasure!

done no ebaying either , not sure whether its too early for summer stuff
i have loads of beautiful dresses from my daughter that i know will sell well , but not sure if i would be better waiting till march

so well done to all who haven't been lazy like me lol

I usually put Miss Hoodies summer stuff on about mid Feb, think now that people would be looking for xmas and bday bargains, also Feb time you get in before the shops get much of their summer stocks in. xx

Well I finally added all my survey sites back into favourites and caught up on all my surveys. Only 35 points off a redeem on glob ops so hoping for that in the next couple of days. Also came across 3 new sites but loath to pass on as don't know if any good. Will give it a week and see what comes through and then see what you guys feel about joining up. Would hate to pass on a con one.

Hope you enjoy the night off cornish.

Kit - just in case you haven't got it, the link for Viva(tic) is here. There's no referral, so just join up when you can.

Chel - I joined Folksy. Little X stitches is the name - I did want Little Treasures, but someone already had that.

How's everyone's weekend gone? Just another reminder for s&s (I haven't done mine yet Oops).

ETA: Just seen your new post Chel - I had a photo problem on Ebay too - I had plenty of photos, but the uploader wouldn't work for me. Like you, I'm not posting them without pics, so after an hour trying, I gave up too.

Stepmum - great news about the new sites. I look forward to hearing more.
