Caz counts it down

Hmmm, orders a little bit down at the moment, hope they pick up again fairly soon. I'm out of 18" curb chains until my charm bracelet supplier delivery, which isn't helping. The proofreading is still coming through at least, lots done today, lots stacked up for tomorrow.

Chin up, positive thoughts

Yay NW card almost gone. Good idea to borrow the £300 odd from the tax savings if you have until 2016 before they're needed. I really wouldn't want to pay any interest!

Hi Caz

Hope boys are well. Sounds like everything ticking along - although you still sound super busy. Do you have to be VAT registered? (Sorry if I am being nosey)

The boys are fine, in fact I even got time to do this today for the first time in 3 months!



I am VAT registered, though only just over the threshold these days, I really need to be selling about another £30-40k a year of stuff to make it worth it.

It's been a day for ticking off the outdoor chores. I've dug up all the spuds, cleared out the lettuce bed (much to the boys' delight!):



and re-stained one side of Merlin's field shelter before deciding it was much too nice a day not to sit on a pony

Tomorrow I need to stain a bit more field shelter, go for a 40-minute run, do the laundry, clean the house, do my proofreading shift and pack as many orders as possible, because Mr Minx has an appointment in Inverness on Monday and I have awarded myself a DAY OFF to go with him

Thanks Little bit *too* well, for the last two nights they've managed to get through the temporary fence and into the long grass at the bottom of the shelter field! The first one was a brakes failure on Finn's part (the tape actually snapped) and must have happened not long before I got down there because Merlin hadn't worked out there was fresh field open to him and there was nothing to shovel. This morning I got down to find the tape in loops, two bent fence posts and a couple of very smug-looking ponies lying down in the top field going, 'Breakfast? Nah, we're fine thanks.' :rotfl:

It's been a long day, but all the orders bar eight are packed and I'm just starting my last proofreading file of the night. Bad news today though, someone left me a neutral on eBay because she couldn't work out how to use what she'd bought from me - no message first, just a straight neutral :mad::mad::mad: Last time that happened, back in the spring, my sales dropped by about 40%, so let's hope that eBay has tweaked the algorithm a little bit and I don't get hit as badly this time.

I would get back in touch with her and ask her to adjust it as that is unfair!

Ponies looking fab and that's a big cheesey grin I see?

Ticking over nicely and heading in the right direction - fabulous!
