    Yep me too TC...maybe we should support each other?? :)

    I ma planning to do at least 4 hours on it this weekend for example. If I don't do something will do nothing iyswim. How about you?

    A big kick to us all to get something done :)

    We're off to see the Shaun the Sheep exhibit this weekend, so not sure I'll be that productive. Am trying to get a bit done today though.

    Thanks tattycath :) I'm pleased with it, though should be making an effort to get other stuff out as well as ebay stuff and books!

    Well have managed 36 listings today :T :T

    Have also put some old breast pump parts in the bin (not reusable).

    Someone made a best offer on one of my items which I've accepted so hopefully they will pay up.
