    Hi Jwil,

    Sorry to hear LO has chicken pox - I hope he has it mildly.

    My DD didn't get it until she was 5 which was 2 weeks before we flew to cyprus to get married....I picked the last spot of her nose as I was so paranoid the airport would see and not let her fly....she now has a tiny dip in her nose :(

    Exciting new washing machine - we are looking to buy a new one in the new couple of months - mine likes to take little nibbles of of our clothes randomly and washed clothes don't smell so fresh anymore

    Hope you are having a nice weekend.

    Thanks guys :)

    Brizzle - I was hoping they'd both get it next year too!

    He's been suffering with it poor little chap, hopefully we are over the worst now though, I could do with some sleep!

    Well the last few days have been hard work. I'm shattered from being up much of the night - got all that to look forward to again soon :eek:

    Little jwil is still asleep now though, so hoping he's turning a corner.

    I haven't achieved much, did manage to get some ebay items packed and posted yesterday. Have sold another 2 items overnight, so have just packed them as well.

    Have redeemed another £15 in amazon vouchers :T

    Going to try and get some stuff sorted and listed now. We'll see how it goes.

    Hope everyone is well :)

    I've set my September targets above. I'm not sure I'll do particularly well as I've got a lot of expenses to pay this month. Various bills, a couple of birthdays and we need to book the ferry and hotels for our holiday. Also I have to take the cat to the vet for her jabs otherwise she can't go in the cattery.

    I've just redeemed another £10 amazon voucher so that and the other ones I've done recently are going towards birthday presents which all helps!

    I've also sold a fairly chunky item, so pleased with that as well!

    I've got an annoying ebayer who claims the item I sent them are not the same as the photo (they say there is more there!!) Not sure why this is a problem, but their feedback suggests that they complain about at least 25% of their purchases so they have been reported to ebay. I offered them a refund on return, so will see if they come back.
