    One buyer on ebay has a registered address of Lithuania and he is asking me to post at the UK address .....not sure what to do?????


    I remember selling my boss "faulty" iphone 3 & the winner was based outside UK. To cut the long story short - yes I too posted the item using UK address but using recorded mail after about 5 emails back & forth:rotfl::rotfl:


    @ FT - sorry I didn't reply to your post yesterday, didn't feel like posting:o and I didn't feel like logging in today too but I had too because I need to install my new printer:cool:

    Vanilla Biscuits :-

    Bake 150 deg c or Gas mark 4 preheated oven for about 15/20 mins or until biccys have baked to alight golden colour.

    150g margarine
    225g plain flour
    125g caster sugar
    1tsp vanilla essence or extract.

    Mixed margarine & plaint flour until they resembles fine breadcrumbs ( I used whisks):D

    Stir in caster sugar & vanilla & mix into a firm dough with your hands.

    now roll your dough on a lightly flour surface & shape how you like it. Thickness depends on how thick you want maybe 0.5 inch.

    Thats the biscuits done now you will have to do your icing - am sure you can do that;) Egg white & icing sugar

    The APG posts seemed to have slowed so now maybe I will get a chance to read most of the posts again....have been keeping up with peeps on FB as am on there most days comping.....

    If any of you are near the magazine section of your newsagents/supermarket next week, see if you can spot the December issue of '25 Beautiful Homes'...my son's house is featured in it.They came and had it decked out it as if it was Xmas in August....lol....not sure if his will be on the cover or not,they intimated that it might have been chosen,will have to wait until I see it myself....


    Post it on your FB if they appears on the magazine Bully so we can have a look free of charge:D

    Google the address and then ask paypal if it is verified. Email buyer and ask who lives there.


    Thanks Aesop. He said he is from Luthiania but he wants that item delivered to his relative in UK. But as per ebay terms we are only supposed to post at the registered ebay address????thumb-4230417.jpg
