    Nothing wrong with that suggestion. Go in for it myself but worried about trading standards & "not fit for purpose"

    Me too. It's the turnip fetishists I worry about:eek: I am sure i saw some on The telly the other day:rotfl: :rotfl:

    Well i have actually got off my butt, and listed on Amazon. Mega effort, and hope it was all worth it. Inspiration is needed here!

    I didn't realise i had so many books lurking in the depths..well i did really, but was unwilling to part with them.

    However it was all in a good cause.sob

    Had a quick look on Quidco, and have £70 tracking due to be paid next month...woohoo.

    Also tried to find the 'ing accounts on there..nothing, so may have a look elsewhere.

    Young Baldrick, has been sadly lacking on household duties today. Although he has successfully made copious brews whilst i listed above books, he now needs to get to grips with washing up.

    Young Queenie has got up and slunk on couch. Hmmm...she who must be obeyed..Me! needs to practice careful negotiation skills...what do you reckon?
    Wash up ...or rent? Will try it and see...

    Result, sulky teenagers now heading to sink as we speak.

    Happy diarising!

    I still feel when reading these diaries that i'm breaking the biggest taboo of all - invading the privacy of a diary. Never mind, I'm sure the feeling will pass soon enough.

    Good luck

    Don't worry about it, i love a good snoop..and a natter..and a gossip...privacy pah:rotfl: :rotfl:

    Top comedy!

    Looking forward to your upcoming diary. You give some really good advice in here so it'll be interesting to see if you can take it too!:p:p:p

    Yes, it is one of my biggest faults..all my cunning plans go astray, because i dont listen to good advice..must pin my ears back:D :p

    oo bobs got a cunning plan!! Not sure about the turnip though..bit round! Would parnip not be a better "fit?"!
    Have you thought about books on green metropolis? I did try amazon initially bu soon gave up after pepys were selling for 1p! AT least with GM yo get a guaranteed, fair return...just s thought. Ebay isnt great this time of year (more a winter thing me thinks) so would def go for car boot but if local one is anything to go by you eed to haggle - mind you thats the fun for me! Touched that I made it to your list of special people....suspect I may inspire more due to regular !!!! ups on my cunning plan but I'll push on & get there in the end! More than happy to swap debt amount if that wil help...I mean whats a measly 22,000 difference between friends!! Chuffed that you have your own diary as hard to support when people dont IYKWIM! Hugs for you!
