10 days for me and always end it on a Sat/Sun evening about 8pm. Seems to be the best time as Corry has finished and there is nothing on the TV at that time. Damm just given away my secret

Woohoo I've just sold my first book on Amazon! But alas my joy is short lived as i'm still in a real pickle. Does anyone know how to make £150 in 7 days? I am supposed to be playing water polo abroad over the bank holiday weekend but because the sale of my flat has been delayed by over a month, I now don't have the money to go. I really, really, really(!) don't want to miss is
I've gone to live with my folks but I brought up the minimum amount of belongings so have nothing to ebay or carboot, its all in boxes 2 hours away! I would go down to get it but i haven't the petrol money and the rents are away on holiday for another week so can't sub me! Any pearls of wisdom would be much appreciated!

Yeah i'd sell it, you do have to put on that it's used after all. This laptop I use is old and cheap and gets really hot quite quickly, but it will stay on for hours till its had enough! I'm thinking of ebaying the dog to get money! Only joking, i couldn't do that!
But I have put some of my fave shoes on there, to be honest they did hurt, they were just pretty to look at! :rotfl:
Best go and get ready to make a good impression with the job lady....!Natwest OD = £1800
