    :wave: bubbs.
    Had a brilliant holiday, apart from a couple of things, thanks.
    Went up the narrow mountain road, white van man came down the other side, travelling a bit too fast and flicked up rocks that had fallen down, causing a couple of massive dents in the side of my car. Quite frightening at the time. :mad:

    Had a missed call from my Dad's care home (when I am away, they contact my SiL for everyday stuff) so thought the worst. It was a bruise which is normal when he is on Warfarin.

    I got stung by a wasp (have a really bad reaction to these) but was so lucky that had made friends with a couple and one was a first aider. :A She removed the sting but I still had a very bad reaction. I was only left with a 15cm round 'puncture' wound but just a vivid red not purple, as is usual. Anti-histamine helped but was still the size of a mole hill.:o Very itchy and irritating.

    My last aunt died yesterday from cancer, only diagnosed very recently. :mad: Difficult to come to terms with as she was super healthy, despite her age.
    Sorry to offload.

    Ouch!!! with the wasp, hope its ok now
    :eek::eek: with the car, but could have been worse, thankfully it wasnt:T
    Sorry about your aunt:(
    Glad dad is ok as can be x
    How is ds?

    Aww so sorry to hear about your Aunt MKS. My Dad was one of 9 and Mam was one of 5 so had lots of Aunties and Uncles, and can remember them passing away, one by one, till my last one died about 18 years ago. Actually Mam & Dad outlived all their siblings

    Been ages since I've sold on Fleabay! Didn't know about the free listings. Not taken much notice!

    I should try and get more. Wonder how many are on here. :cool:

    http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=m570.l1313&_nkw=Dove+Travel+Minis+Gift+Set&_sacat=0

    Incredible prices. Nearest to normal price was the 2 for £12.65
    Too much bother selling these on ebay and why silly prices not like you can't buy them in many other shops at around £6 mark.
    Sold just enough to make the ones I have now free. 3 large sachets of body Creme in each box of 6 today.
    I can count some health and beauty out the house 12 doves, 3 tresemme hairsprays and 4 full j sets. Made a bit of space. Didn't bring any health and beauty in with my shopping this week so that good. Well I bought doves in as far as front door so not count those as waiting to be collected.
    New dress coming in so old dress must be found to throw away.

    . I do think a chaise lounge is a good description of you though. Stylish yet comfortable and laid back :)

    May the odds be ever in your favour;)

    I don't understand why the birdie travel packs can be listed for £24.25 when they are only 9.99 in SD. Do people pay anything just because its Fleabay?

    They are only £5.99 each in SD then in 3 for £3 so could argue the are valued around £6 but not even hard for a Muggle who needs a travel set to buy as around the same price in other outlets.

    It amazes me what some stuff sells at on ebay:eek: I was having a shifty earlier. There's someone selling empty sweet packets for 99p plus postage. It's cheaper to buy the sweets. Makes no sense to me:o

    MKS....sorry about your loss:A
