  • Good luck for interview 415sf I noticed u have great eBay sales on ur sgnature I have really been put of by non payers but was thinking I shud try again... any tips?have been decluttering loads so far to cs but I'm on maternity leave so money wud b fab!

    Ow thank you, I do feel very nervous to tell the truth. The bath was to calm me down, more than anythingI even managed to declutter a small candle and a bath soap flower :)
    Of curse you should try again, you have nothing to loose!
    Ah yes the non-payers,,,,humph, just goes with the territory I'm thinking. Although you can make it so that if people have more than two non-payment strikes on there account they cannot buy anything from you. Go into your account and fins buy requirements and its in there.

    Hello Everyone

    Been awol for a few days - moving house:eek:

    I tried to de-clutter before the move but it got very rushed at the end so I had to just box everything up and bring it to the new house.

    We're renting for a while so seeing as there will be no decorating or house maintenance jobs for a few months this is my big opportunity to get to grips with all that clutter for once and for all.

    So as I unpack each box I am determined to get rid of as much as I can.

    It begins today - in earnest .....

    Not much done here yesterday, as I was at college in the morning, and then with DS2 at a hospital appointment all afternoon. But :-

    * 3 canvas tote bags I've never used - CS

    5 minute declutter of kitchen cupboards produced the following:

    Plastic plates
    Baby bowls
    Various plates
    Jug
    Pudding basin
    Glass ramekins
    Plastic cup
    Nut cracker and board

    Everyone's doing really well, little and often gets there in the end.

    My kitchen is starting to look better. I've been able to move things I use down from the top shelf that I can't reach, as space has been freed up by getting rid of the junk.

    Might get rid of some tea cups and saucers that I'm not keen, best check with OH first though as they were his before we met.
