Tea please here Kazmeister, (coffee does that Pigpen thing to me too so I only have one a month if I need to stay out on the razzle beyond 10pm).
Launderette success so much so I've offered to take my mums duvet while she's away on hols for a week. There were three of us doing duvets today, obviously the season for it. Had a quick sprint round the charity shops and got 4 tops for work (M&S, Racing Green and Gap don't ya know..)all in the WM now and I'm very chuffed I satisfied my lust for shopping with £7.25!
F&V shop done for the week too just need to meal plan before I get other stuff.
Kittens are the only thing I coo over. Borderlakland, my Lucy was nearly a Mabel (after being called Baby for a week) and Maralum, Lola is going to be spoiled rotten, I hope she appreciates all her creature comforts!
Once I've finished my cuppa, I think it's gardening time.
Keep up the good work.One debt v 100 days Part 14 £400/£400

Border.. I couldn't have rats.. my sister had one (Pirate!! she didn't even get why that was amusing) I couldn't even look at it.. those horrible feet that look like little dwarfy hands.. and that nose thing they do *shudder*.. no-likey!!!
Kaz.. I don't have any choice.. I can't do car boot as I don't have a car.. so I ebay.. I've done £251 THIS MONTH!!! Just in September!! I have 125 things listed.. I just want some space back and the money also comes in really handy for debt clearance!!!! This lot has paid for the 6 pairs of shoes I've had to buy for the children!! Has the littlemeister got her room detrashed yet?? Or shall I be sending that there roll of binbags? My boys are having to do theirs today so I can paint it through the week.. I have 3 underbed storage boxes they can have toys in and the rest can go out of there. I love painting!
If anyone is interested I have a brand new pair of clarks boys shoes 1F I need to sell on ?? And a brand new pair of blue suede kangaroos size 1.. quite narrow fitting though! DS3 had a massive growth spurt over the summer holidays so his new school stuff doesn't fit!!
I've had loads of people asking if I have BIN prices for my stuff.. so I've gone for that most of the time.. shifts it quicker doesn't it.
Oh.. I had to get my bubble wrap out of the shed and it has been there all summer and these was the biggest spider on it!! You could see the eyelets on its boots it was so enormous.. needless to say it got rid of the girls who were trying to get in the shed.. I also discovered 3 boxes of ebay stuff out there too.. There I was thinking I was actually making a dent and someone just hid it in the shed!!! I'll get it out one nice sunny day and sort through it all and see what is sellable and what can be charity shopped.LB moment 10/06 Debt Free date 6/6/14Hope to be debt free until the day I dieMortgage-free Wannabee (05/08/30)6/6/14 £72,454.65 (5.65% int.)08/12/2023 £33602.00 (4.81% int.)0 -

Do you have a bit of felt lying about? The stuff you would cover a hutch with?
If you do, let the bunnies run around on it for an hour. Will file their nails down for you.0 -

Hi everyone
You have all been very busy, just caught up reading since Thursday!
Good to see so many returners and newbies
I have been at work this past couple of days, then Thurs was bellringing and last night I was nextdoor learning how to play poker :eek: had a good time but lost my £5. Tonight I am off out (again!!!) to a wedding reception. So with swimming lessons and bellringing this morning and Nannie visiting this afternoon nothing is going to get done round here.
Been thinking as I read that we should have ebay challenges as well as 30 min flying challenges so we can all get rid of our [strike]crap[/strike] clutter. We could set a collective total to raise towards Christmas? Good idea?
Hope you all have a good weekend, I'll catch up later.

Thanks for reminding me pigpen,I've got a guinea who needs her nails cutting,hate doing it as she squeels the place down(telling her it doesn't hurt makes no difference)

right I have showered,put last of washing out on the line.got 2 loads in,folded and put away,put another load in machine so can i have a star please....
Tiamai_d hope ds party goes well
see you all laterLead us not into temptation...
just tell us where it is and we'll find it....0 -
an ebay challenge we could do.. but you know I'd win lol... is there not one running here already.. I'd have thought there would be!
I want to have paid off a couple of debts before christmas so am aiming to get enough to do that.. £2000!!! What I have made so far has been swallowed by the children shoes!.. but the £19 yet to finish is my sisters so up to now it is still a 'good intention' and no progress has actually been made!
Right.. I'm off to collect that stuff from my mothers as hubby is being an @rse and yelling at everyone for nothing... again!!LB moment 10/06 Debt Free date 6/6/14Hope to be debt free until the day I dieMortgage-free Wannabee (05/08/30)6/6/14 £72,454.65 (5.65% int.)08/12/2023 £33602.00 (4.81% int.)0
