Evening all
Another £13.80 in eBay sales :T Am finally getting into the swing of it !!!! Have set myself a small sales total for Feb of £50 ... Should be doable - have about 40 x 7" vinyls to get rid of for a start. It's going to be my part time job for next couple of months keep me out of mischief
Eldest very quiet .... Glad I didn't change my bed yet as he is currently tucked up in it dribbling on my pillowGlad I didn't clean bathroom yet either ..... You can guess that one ! Of course it's not a hangover - it's something he ate :rotfl:
Nearly out of Sainsb tea bags so must get some this week - I love them !!!
Hope everyone has a good week xThe final chapter - £4893 to go out of £30K0 -
What a pain about the bank charge - still you were on it straight away and that's a good thing.
Well done on the ebay sales. It is very addictive. I am running of things to sell though. Are your 7" singles selling well? I have a few I could get rid of, just didn't think they would go very easily.It's not how far you fall - it's how high you bounce back.... :jHappiness is not a destination - it's a journey0 -
Brrr .....
3 boxes of Sains tea bags in the cupboard - bargain @ 27p and I love them !!!
Bank are refunding my charge as I never go OD
Decided I am going to start getting up half hour earlier - as I am so tired in the evening I am going to try doing a few jobs in the morning when I have more energy .... TheoreticallyI cannot wait for the lighter mornings :j
Any tips for getting curry out of a cream carpet ???!!! Youngest tripped over earlier and splatter prawn curry about as far as it's possible to throw it .... It looks awful & I cant get it out ....
I certainly cannot afford a new one , so any suggestions gratefully received !
Other than that , not a bad day today and it's weds already tomorrow !!!! Bank all ok, so am doing ok really.
Poles haven't started selling the vinyl yet but have been looking on eBay and they do seem to sell , I do have a few limited editions so I figure it's worth a try ? They have been in the cupboard for about 15 yrs so it's no loss if they don't sell

Hi Coco, just wanted to pop in and say that the one cleaner I swear by for all types of stains is 'Elbow Grease'. It says on the bottle it's an 'all purpose degreaser' and can be used on fabrics, metals, plastics - pretty much everything! I used the at the weekend as hubby had managed to get part of his meat feast pizza on a white top - lovely tomato sauce stains on this chest and cuff, jeez can't take him anywhere lol, anyway sprayed it on, popped it into the machine and hey presto all gone. I've used it on my carpets too and it's only £1 in my local asd@. It's a spray bottle with yellow liquid in it, hope that helps0

Brilliant news on the bank charges and good luck with the stain removingIt's not how far you fall - it's how high you bounce back.... :jHappiness is not a destination - it's a journey0

Feel the fear and do it anyway.
I use the 80-20 rule for everything. Example
80% of earnings come from 20% of effort so I now concentrate on the high earnng bitsl
80% of proble,s come from 20% of people or things so I get rid of those.
Trust me it works a treat.0
