EASTER EBAY CHALLENGE!!
We all have a box of stuff we keep meaning to ebay and putting off.. well.. this is your week!!

1. This week.. locate the box and photograph 25 items!!!
2. Upload pics to the pc
3. If you use turbolister.. update it!

Don't make my life confusing! It takes me all my time to search for anything on Ebay, never mind trying to actually sell stuff!! I think I'll leave that little task to all you professionals if you don't mind :rotfl:

soappie - i'm not offended at all by what you've said. it all came about because she asked me about my tampons (with applicators pigpen, you were right!!!). i've always left them lying around so that my children did ask what they were (this was fine until ds to them to school aged 5!). anyway, dd asked me today and i told her what they were but she loves to read so i told her i'd get a book. it also means that if there is anything she doesn't want to ask me then she still has the answers. i'll talk to my two about anything because my upbringing was quite sheltered. i want them to be able to talk to us about everything. so far they have. i'm still a buster fan, don't worry! xx

Thanks Mudbath... I guess it's because there WEREN'T books around when me or my kids were growing up that I wonder why ones needs them. Mind you - I guess I learnt a lot of the facts of life behind the bike sheds as it were when I was a youngster... Maybe it's better there is a book so youngsters, as people have said, can dip in and out of it as they like.

And welcome Newbies - particularly Arwenelf - don't worry - you're safe here - it's only Pigpen that growls occasionally and she doesn't REALLY mean it.....if you're really lucky and do your homework, she'll give you a dog biscuit

Welcome newbies and welcome back mumoftwo and torianut, hello, I was just thinking about you both the other day. You're always welcome back, everyone is, we all drop off the wagon a little sometimes sure you'll both have things back in order soon.

Just ended up making chicken kebabs, DP moaned for a takeaway so I made it instead.....:D go me for money saving. Oh and his ebay thing sold for £150.....but needs to be sent to Germany (once the pending payment has cleared) so he's happy and I am (one less cluttering the place)

Oh as for learning things when growing up. I don't think anything was from my parents, all came from Just 17 magazine I think :rotfl:my Mam tried to discuss birds and bees with me when I was about 13 and figured I knew more than she did. Most girls I went to school with were sexually active by then, one girl was pregnant, I think Mam was a little late in explaining.

Mudbath

right, hello everyone

arwenelf - hiya, hope you're going to join in this week or we'll have to haunt you! pigpen looks scary and.....ok, actually, she is scary! lol. {just ignore her though}

I'm in again - week 3 and I feel so much more organised.

:wave: to all the newbies - its amazing how a couple of weeks in to flying it just seem so much easier!

Just got uniform to finish drying - only about 10 minutes and checking up on my first 2 ebay sales (very exciting!)

See you all later xx

P.S - (((((summermoon))))) - my grandad's been poorly on and off for the last 12 months and he's 90 now so everytime he goes back in hospital I think this is it. Know how you feel xx
