Better weather might be better for a garage sale?

Might not be up to Sunday, am really not very well ATM ( not my big stuff, but a bug that's taking ages to shift). I am really dehydrated infant and its so bad I might try and see if my old doctor where I used to live can see me.

I have plugged in an electric heater....just cannot be hefting wood about. The pellet boiler is gobbling pellets but not heating the house up, so the dogs have a heater, I have a heater in the sitting room, and the electric blanket upstairs, so I have turned the heating off. I will use the heat for a bath.

I actually smell terrible:o so sitting in some hot soapy water will do me more good I think.

LIR...

I find a nice hot soak, does the world of good, hope you feel better soon...

It really is biting weather at the mo...

I was sooo cold in work earlier my hands and lips were going blue.... so was home by about 4pm...

I really am finding the older I get the more I am feeling the cold...and I don't class myself as old ( yet)

Alfie that sounds lovely.. and comfortable


Davesnave... If they are selling dvd's let me know...


Rhiwie what were the prices like at the auction??? are the same buyers at this, that goes to Andrew's?

rhiwfield

CTC, fewer bulk lots than at Andrew's. We bought a fair amount within our price levels so that was good. One face I recognised but most were different buyers.

Tbh, prices at Andrews vary depending on how many bidders turn up. One time we might buy 30 lots, another time 5 lots is all

We took a few gambles this time to expand our knowledge of classic porcelain, ask me in a few weeks whether we got it right!!

LIR - Hope you get better soon & stay cosy.

Sofa sounds posh Alfie.

Rhiwfield - I dare not go to an auction as I used to go all the time in a previous life & they are addictive - I need to get rid of stuff at the mo.

Woman appeared down here earlier & srapped a sattelite thing on her back. It was someone from the Ministry & I was inspected. I filled i my l;st application in their office with their advice using their maps & seems I overclaimed & I will have to pay back & will possibly be fined. The woman was really nice & stuff but boy am I angry as I have not done owt wrong that I was aware of & it was just enough to cover Winter feed if that & I didn't know how to do the form so I went & got them to do it for me!

Gosh I am sickened about this.

Rummer

Choille how awful is there nothing you can do about it?

choille

Well, she was nice, but when I said that I had gone through to their office & asked them how to fill the form in, done it then & there under their guidance using their maps, she said that they can accept no responsibility.

I will get on to my union. It seems ludicrous & wrong. Big massive estates claim thousands & thousands & employ folks to get as much as possible, keep no stock & employ to real workers. I only claim a few hundred & it is so I can keep the sheep. It is another squeeze from Europe to get rid of the small crofts.
