    I'm flagging :o I can't cope with all this ebaying, my bum is going numb from sitting on the computer chair so it may be time to turn the armchair around :rotfl: I currently have 47 items listed on ebay (7 new "relisted" ones from this morning) and 74 photographed items on my photobucket account :eek: I've managed to title/catergorise/photo 19 items so far... all the descriptions read "to follow" and there are no postage charges :rolleyes: So let me see...by the time I've finished listing my stuff there should be 121 items listed on my account, plus whatever OH has listed on his :eek: Post office are going to love me and I can see a trip to town to buy more brown paper & bubblewrap at this rate :rolleyes: I really hope we manage to make enough money to cover the last lot of car repairs we had to pay for as the car needs something else fixing :mad: Already told OH at this rate I want him to go and buy a brand new car on credit as it will probably work out cheaper than this one we have :mad::rolleyes:

    Oh well, better see if I can get some more listings done before it's time to get DD now I've switched to the armchair. Should really close the blinds though I think :o :wave:

    How exciting, Maralum. If you think this really could be it though dont go walking far on your own will you.You never know how long a labour will last. My first one was 32 hours but second one was only 3 hours from first pains.
