    I am sat at gamabdo trying to work out if the 2 managers are partners or just flirting with each other.

    I love people-watching:j. Great fun imagining what everyone's up to;)

    Sorry I missed wishing you well for today:o. I hope it all went well and you'll be back to your normal cheery self very soon:kisses3:. I don't imagine that even medical issues keep you down for long though.


    Does your cataract problem impact on your usual activities much? I know you love reading (as I do:)) so I know how much I'd suffer if I couldn't do it as much:(

    Hi All,

    Well done to all those who have made money so far this month.

    Unfortunately I have no income to report as although I have a number of items in progress nothing has been received yet.

    My lot in the specialist auction estimated at £500/700 is currently sitting at £460 with a little over a day to go. Auction finishes at 8pm tomorrow or 5 clear minutes after the last bid on the item whichever is the later (Stops eBay style last minute bidding to try to keep the price down). Will need to take off the 5% commission fees plus listing fees and VAT etc but should still be a nice little sum coming my way. Not bad for a present I bought for my late partner in 1989 for £145.

    I also sent some foreign and pre decimal coins to Cash4Coins mid last month. As I hadn't heard anything from them I chased it up today. Aparently I should have had an automatic email confirming receipt but I hadn't so he said he would look into it and email me back. True to his word he sent an email within 10 minutes and confirmed the coins are due to be counted and processed on Monday (they state 7/28 days but are currently running at around 18). Really pleased with this service so far.

    Also waiting for a council tax refund and a cheque for a telephone survey I took part in last month.

    Tomorrow I hope to get some more books and CD's listed on various sites and some eBay listings sorted.

    I think that's all for now. Sorry for the epic post but wanted to document things to keep it in my mind.

    Hi Aesop I sent about 6.5 Kilo's of various coins including lots of pre decimal and pre Euro coins. Not sure how much I will get but anything is better than the coins cluttering up the house. I must admit to always checking the coin counting machines in supermarkets as people often seem to ignore the rejected foreign coins.

    Only managed to cash out £2.59 from Qmee so far.

    I have however downloaded some apps and made a start on those (Receipt Hog, Shopitize, One Pulse and GeoTask - Is there anything I'm missing?)

    I have also a couple of items ending soon on Ebay and have taken some photo's ready for listing.

    I've also gone back to Toluna and am already half way towards a £5 voucher.

    I love voxpopme. Earned about £50 from the app so far!
