  • It sounds like a good day for you today Jwil :T. It's always nice to get good feedback and selling a large item is a double win.

    I found £20 in the street once, it was pouring with rain and the street was deserted so I thought I'd better rescue it before it disintegrated and washed down a drain :rotfl:.

    They did go into the bedrooms to bleed the radiators though, that was a bit embarrassing :o

    Nice find! It would have been rude to leave it to disintegrate :D

    I'm not sure :D At least there weren't any dirty clothes lying around and the bed was made!

    We took the kids to Slimbridge yesterday, it was the first time I've ever been there too. They loved it. It was a nice day out, and one of the challenges the doc set me was to get out more as I was starting to get anxious about it.

    I really enjoyed it too, and it was a good day.

    A couple of my big books are selling today so I'm really pleased about that as I wasn't convinced they would! Another item sold as well which has been on for a while.

    A colleague at work has given me huge amounts of packaging they've been collecting from a house move and various internet shopping. It's a lot of space at the moment, but will be used fairly quickly and will save me some money!

    Today I need to prep my RM survey stuff, do some cooking to prep lunches etc for the week and I've got some more books etc I might try and list too.

    Have a good weekend everyone :)

    Glad you enjoyed your day out :) I've always wanted to go to Slimbridge, but have never got round to it.
