bloody ebay wont let me sell some tat... it just seems to be not workin   

I'm always amazed at the load of old rubbish people will buy - and the prices they will pay! My friend put some quite nice dresses from Tesco up there which she'd got in the sale and got more than she'd originally paid for them   

ive managed to press the right button on the ebay thing, it seems to work now

I knew someone who was into buying & selling. He had a pile of old Argos catalogues in his house as part of a job-lot he had bought. He thought he'd give it a go on flea-bay. Individual copies were bought for OVER £100!!!! They were early editions and some strange people thought that made them valuable.

I walked up to Asda this morning. We to pick up the little ones  this afternoon, dinner then swimming leason for them.

I need to take down an old lathe & plaster ceiling. But I just can't face the mess.   

Maybe next week.

Fed cats, fed chickens, collected eggs, went back to bed. Dull here.

Just had fajitas. I've always rolled the chicken in the 'spice mix' first, before tossing them in the pan.

On this occasion I had an Old El Paso mix and it said on the box to add the mix to the chicken in the pan (after cooking the chicken till golden first). Well, thinking that the fellas at Old El Paso would know what they're talking about I thought I'd do it their way.

It was crap. Nowhere near as tasty as tossing the chicken in a little olive oil and spice mix PRIOR to throwing in the pan.

I may email them. They need to know.

I changed a long lightbulb thing (striplight ?) Today.

Will be in Torquay in the morning and will stop off in Totnes for coffee on the way home.

U B a proper gad about.

I have been poking fun at wifey who has had a miserable cold for the last week or so.

Woke up this morning with lots of aching and a sore throat.     

I had an anti pneumonia injection today.. apparently it contains egg protein ! luckily im not allergic to eggs   

A nice day in the Bay today missed Totnes came home via Newton Abbot

Got home from quite a difficult day at work. Took coat and shoes and other things off. Put coffee on. Went into my manbag for my cigs and found ... a strawberry and banana smoothie and a chocolate brownie.

Whoever thought of Coop meal deals deserves a medal. As does the person who invented eating the savoury bit and forgetting the drink and pudding.

The wife and I will walk in to the City Centre Library this morning, going through Higher Compton, Mutley Plain.

I had seen a trilogy of books in a Torquay bookshop I would like to read. The Plymouth Library had all the books but the first in their catalogue.

Yuuuuuuuuk!! feel like crap.

Eyes watering, aching all over, sneezing, runny nose. It's worse than man flu. I think I have Manthrax.   

Meet a nice lady from Bigbury in BHs cafe yesterday friend, she had a who car was stranded in Calstock

People were queueing up for that honour.

When I woke up this morning it was raining but not windy. It is still raining now and it's windy too.

Just finished clearing out my shed of all the crap and burning it all.Now just finishing off the cider and the snowballs I have just been given.Turning the bit I have burnt out into a spud planting area in the morrow. Knecht if you dont mind I am going to listen to the Decemberist Mariner's revenge.
One for you seadog.

Link? I suppose I'll have to find it myself.   



A pleasant little ditty. The band deserve a better singer. Have you come across Sam Lee? He and his new band played in the Village Hall in Calstock a week ago. He's just beginning a project based on local song-links to WW1. His first album where he put his own twist on several traditional songs was spiffing.

Me, the girly and poppy mcdougall are off to exeshitter today. The girly to hospital and me and poppy to the pub  

Another couple of Akkeron subsidiaries went into administration again today
