Tick!! Mainly as a lazy wake up, about 2 hours ago, and fiddling on the PCs since. Sheila still sleeps, as do the animals ... who need feeding. What are your plans? It's good to be back amongst friends and colleagues |

Tick!! Well right now I am defending my tea from the cat...but today I shall be focussing on getting the kids clothes washed and packed for their holiday. Perhaps we shall go to the park for a bit. For some reason I decided to sell my sofa on ebay with out really thinking if I could afford a new one..so I am watching the bidding with interest at the moment. If it sells from next week I shall have to sit on the floor to watch telly. :D Reality Internet Personality |

Tick!! Sorry for disappearing ... the dogs really needed feeding, and we have just had our caffeine infusion. Interesting ... a minimalist front room, with student accommodation (deckchair(s))? I have, for the first time, subscribed to eBay. I suppose we all must eventually. A bit of legacy software installed OK a few days ago on one of my older PCs refuses to do so on my new rig. I saw a small scratch on the shiney side, which may be the reason. Tried many times, and across 2 DVD players on the new machine. Even did a rip and burn, to no avail. My problem is I have an upgrade to the latest version, which I cannot use on the new rig. I see an unopened boxed copy on eBay, which I am bidding for.

Sorry for disappearing ... the dogs really needed feeding, and we have just had our caffeine infusion. I've bought loads of things on Ebay..or rather my son has. He buys Star Wars collectables ..he finds them and I bid for them for him, and he pays me back from him pocket money. I also got him his trumpet on Ebay..but this is the first time I've tried to sell anything. I'll let you know how it goes. If it is successful I will sell my son's cot on there which I still have for some reason...and all their wooden train set. We have a huge box of it that they don't play with anymore. Hopefully I will raise enough to buy a new sofa that doesn't take up most of the living room, and that has cushions that don't come off while people are somersaulting onto it, causing them to bang their heads on the back. This is a very important feature in a sofa. Reality Internet Personality |

This is a very important feature in a sofa. Sheila and I are naughty with our dogs, as we allow them on the furniture. The sofa and large winged back chairs all have heavily raised cushions at the back. The dogs (at about 22 to 30 lbs) like walking along or sleeping on the cushions at the back of these chairs. They are all flattened, in the expected direction, but puffed up to give a slight table effect. Makes a nice sleeping areas, which is comfortable around the shoulders. As mad in real life as on these boards? Need to dissappear for about 20 minutes to get the papers, before the village shop shuts at noon! It's good to be back amongst friends and colleagues |

I decided to sell my sofa on ebay WHAT ???? How in the hell can u mail a sofa and make ANY money ? Probably..just make sure that you specify that the buyer must be a handsome young millionaire and you'll be doing her a favour. Reality Internet Personality |

I decided to sell my sofa on ebay WHAT ???? How in the hell can u mail a sofa and make ANY money ? Scared me for a moment until I saw that you were making "the move" on ES. Try to buy her by the pound. How much can it be? |

Hey, do think we could auction off Lester on Ebay? If we set a reserve price of 50c he should go. Maybe...But would the shipping price be prohibitive? PROUD TO BE TFFE! |

I can't afford her Good point ! Better to rent. If u buy her you have the problem of importing a "funny talker". Cant understand them. You would have to put her in a ESL class (english as a second language) just so u could talk to her. Cause they doesnt speak as gooder as we does |
