I only started to use a laptop in June last year, so I don't know a lot, my son has taught me as I  go along, still don't know how to take a little quote out of a post

oh I know my son has to do that, I feel such a junior ;D especially when I have to sell anything, he has to take the photo put it on ebay with a description,  I bought a beautiful chocolate silk Zara dress with the tickets on size 16, and am waiting for their 1p ebay sale, as it is such a bargain and I am sure I can make a profit

I am a bit hacked off with ebay at the moment!! >:( >:( >:(
The last time I put something on the pictures disappeared and no matter what I did they would NOT come back I e.mailed ebay for help....but my query 'wasn't listed'. So the whole thing was a complete waste of time!! I expect everyone thought I was a 'Scammer'!!
I have even had my listings pinched but luckily a friend spotted it and reported it and e.mailed me. >:( :o

I won a blue ribbon skirt (Monsoon) the bid was at £14.99 no bids, so I asked if I could BUY IT NOW, she said she couldn't possibly sell it at that price, so I said ok I would bid.  I  won the bid at £17 + £4 p&p, she then emailed to say a neighbour had died and was going off ebay, and really backing out of the deal. I  replied a deal was a deal,  and by the time the cheque cleared it would be well after New Year, she said she would send the cheque back (she hasn't up to now)I  said it was a contract enetered into when I won the bid, ebay rules not mine, she said don't email her anymore, I said it is in ebay customer services hands - not heard anything but if I don't get my cheque or the dress I am telling ebay I  shall contact Weymouth police

on the bright side...if your clothes are really tight they are so stretched when you put them on that there is no need to iron them. So you see everything has an upside!! ;D
What is Verity Valley??
I bought a skirt today in the sales...it was just the right colour but a much bigger size than I have ever ever bought. I gave it a go and tried it on anyway as it was in my lunch hour and I did not have anything better to do. Sadly I must report it fitted. Oh Woe is me!!! (I have cut the label out!!) ;D

and peeled the size off the hanger ;)There was an episode of Neighbours (years ago) when Lou took Madge for a surprise day out, Verity Valley was a Nudist Club near the beach!!!!  What do you bet that's where village goes, he's hardly been heard of since New Year ;D

Yes...I think he would like a nudist beach. I would be asked to leave to allow the tide to come in. ;D
