    Thank you! We have never put toys on ebay. Partly because our children never had many, and what we did have for them is "timeless" eg wooden building blocks and train track, duplo etc so has gone in the loft for when the grandchildren come to visit.

    Grandchildren :confused: Hopefully not too soon - DD is only just 13 :rotfl: Nothing like long term planning:rotfl: :rotfl:

    Hehe!!!

    We have a mojsr situation with tracks, roads and assorted happy land stuff, some of which we have 2 off, people give us them all the time and our house just isn't big enough for any more toys without looking like a playschool, so they are all in our bedroom waiting to be sorted thourgh.

    So your challenge, should you choose to accept, is to sort out the toys and get at least 10 items listed on ebay this week......

    The Kids enjoyed it more than I did. If it was just me I would have gone without, as I really didn't feel in the mood for it, but I sort of have this responsibility to feed the kids and the lodger (or my threats yesterday at dinner would have been too close to the mark!) so takeaway it was.

    It was ok, but I think that was down to my own frame of mind rather than the food!

    hiya hypno, sorry to hear you had a bit of a S*** on the training course today, would've been tempted to invite him up the front, go sit in his seat and tell him to get on with it himself!! has the coffee helped?

    excellent news on ds coming third and awww to dd for doing the ironing, think if i left her here for an avo she'd do mine as a suprise too? would you consider hiring her out?!;-)

    had to laugh re the long term planning! now that really is DFW!!
