Mubath - How old is your dd? I either confiscate items, or as happened last week - do not take to an after school activity (she had 3 days to pick up the toys on the floor - she just plain refused to do it - she is normally tidy so I was sure she would do it but she didn't, I did and she didn't go ) If you feel that she is old enough then (the meanie that I am if she was mine) I would let her go without what was needed in the hope that any embarassment/missing out would make her be a bit more thoughful next time... that sounds really harsh I know but (hugs) I had a banging head against wall day yesterday - and a quiet word with the big 2 at bedtime.

Yipeee (fingers crossed) lino being fitted on Thursday!!!

DH has been on phone to shower people and although thermostat has been tiled over and shouldn't have been :mad: it has a 10 year warrenty so they will replace any parts foc... fingers crossed he can fit/fix himself.

Off to find info for sky...

Arrrrrrrrrrrrrghhhhhhhhhhhh I HATE ebay or more accurately TURBOLISTER. Ruddy thing, I have uninstalled and reinstalled several times. Managed to open up one of my listings to edit and it blanked out all postage options and won't allow me to list as shop inventory any more :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: can you tell I am annoyed???

I had to walk away from it the other week cause I was getting nowhere, today I think ok will try again. Made some progress but still isn't working properly and I have practically nothing listed. Going to have to have a look into using something else to get my listings up. The prospect of starting over when I have in excess of 200 listings is not something I relish though. Anyone else use any alternatives?

auctiva is supposed to be good.. but that won't work on my machine it just crashes the whole system.. others swear by it though.. worth a try!

I confiscate things, ds (as in nintendo lol) for 1 week normally works, DD1 gets going in morning reluctantly, but does usually manage to watcha bit of tracey flipping beaker in the morning.

More time is needed me thinks, get them saucepans arattling

I confiscate things from mine too. Lap tops and x box can be locked away in a cupboard if I can't get them up in the mornings. These are things they have bought with their own earnings but I don't care.
Mine need and hour!

Sometimes I turn off the power too.

Just looking into that as I type there is a user guide from a powerseller so think I might give it a go. Going to be a long road, will hang on to TL for now in the vain hope that it might start working again. But I will not let it all wind me up any more.

Could do with some positive *ebay shop restocking vibes* please
