    Thanks everyone :)

    I'm still feeling a bit rough, but better than yesterday. Little jwil is still very disturbed overnight, I'm wondering if it's his teeth as his bottom fangs are coming through. Hopefully that will settle down soon if so.

    I managed to get my items packed yesterday but not a lot else done. I did transfer the money over this morning and have made a couple of payments.

    I listed a few Christmas crafty type items this morning in the hope that they will sell soon.

    I need to sort out a load more stuff. I've nearly cleared everything I sorted recently, so time to dig out some more.

    Hey everyone.

    No more payments for me yet as I've used my sales for other things :o We went to a nearly new sale yesterday and I bought a few things for little jwil for Christmas.

    I've sold a few more items and have listed some more. Free listing again today, so I'm using that to relist items that have gone out this week. I'll try and get some more on as well.

    No car booting this morning as the forecast was rubbish.

    Hope everyone is well.

  • Just having a look at some diaries and found yours.


    Welcome back jwil!!


    Your ebaying puts me to shame - I have a few things to ebay and never get round to it but just reading from the start of your diary made me think about actually listing them today - thanks jwil!!

    Hey everyone, hope you are all well.

    I managed to get a few things listed yesterday, and we sold a fair few bits as well :T

    I managed to get a lot of it packed and posted this morning too, so that's two big sacks of stuff gone :j

    I've dug out an old rug kit that we inherited. It's been sitting around for years as I've not been brave enough to start it. I made a start at the weekend, and it's not too difficult, so I'm going to make it up for little jwil's future room. It looks a little rough and ready at the moment, but much better than I thought it would! That will be a big box gone when it's finished as well. It also means that I can declutter some stuff from the You View box or DVD at the same time so win win!

    Do you know, I've been freaking out a bit today. I went home at lunchtime, to find a parcel in my porch. Front door closed. :eek:

    I was wondering if I'd left the outside door open, but I can remember closing it. The parcel was too big for the letter box, and was resting against the inside door so there was no way it had been put through the letterbox and left there.

    Finally I realised what happened - we have a window in the porch which is usually slightly open. The courier must have opened the window and thrown it through. It would explain the angle that it was found at. *Phew*. It's really been worrying me!
