Thanks Lam, one sold for the grand sum of £2.24 plus p&p. Not going to rid me of the debt mountain quite yet.
Missrlr, I took your advice and instead of doing stuff, I've done next to nothing and taken the time to recuperate after a 1st week back in work. Otherwise, as you rightly say I'll struggle to recover after the op. So that is my plan of action for my weekends now.
Yesterday was nsd#10, today I needed a few bits from Mr T and petrol.
Tomorrow is Granny day

Thanks all
Just a quick summary of my day
When a 6 month old practically launches himself off his mother's lap to get at me and then spends his time touching my face and beaming at me
and
when a 2 year old runs up to me throughout the day saying 'Granny, my love you' over and over again
and
when a 7 year old squeals with delight when she sees me in the school yard
and
a 2 year old says goodbye with the words 'thank you for a lovely day'
I am so glad to be alive. A truly magical day that sends me to bed with a smile on my face and sets me up well for the rest of the week
