Re selling of books.
If you have a facebook account you can sell on there and it is cash in hand.0 -
Hi there Habi! Glad you've found me!:j
I'll let you know if I manage to find anywhere to offload the books! I read somewhere (pardon the pun!) That WBB likes autobiographies ... If that's any use to you!
I do like the Irish authoresses though... Esp. Sheila O'Flanagan or Marian,Keyes and the funny thing is you can 'hear' the Irish accent in the written word! And remind me of many a good weekend spent in Dublin! Would you not give one a try? Then again, books are a bit like music...all down to individual taste!
my son had been so miserable in his job but just carried on (as you do). Not much choice around here, so we are thrilled that he had managed to get back into his chosen field since being made redundant from it some years ago. He's now with a different company as the previous company moved out of This area.BoDiddly

We've been known to bottle the damsons in cheap brandy (think value brandy in plastic bottles, yup classy stuff), but once it's mellowed with the fruit through the autumn it's great for winter puddings and hot toddies by the fireside!
thanks!!!

Brandy (any excuse!) We've bought some some gin from Ald* and have some Damsons in it.. that's coming along nicely! So well get some brandy on the go!:)BoDiddly

Please excuse fragmented posts... I'm having terrible trouble trying to use 'quotes' with this phone! Need to invest in a new phone... But at least it'll be cheaper than a central heating bill!BoDiddly

Re selling of books.
If you have a facebook account you can sell on there and it is cash in hand.
Got so many books though, I should sort through and put all the ones for sale on one bookcase to keep things looking tidy...
Don't you hate it when you have a stash of things for sale making the place look upside, down!
Oh was supposed to be helping sell things online but really, he can't be bothered... But the Pennies really do add up don't they?! If he could just get that, life would be a bit easier!
See you all tomorrow no doubt!!
