Over half a million auctions at last!!!!

[meebo1]

Good morning! Well, I hope it is for at least some of you. I have lost my voice, so am speechless - literally. Actually, I can croak now, but it hurts my throat. Tea and coffee are made and I have made a start on the relists - again. So as far as I am concerned, I am calling in sick. Bis morgen

Morning - think I'm here as overslept which is highly unusual for me. Maybe it's the antibiotics?

Got some new listings up last night with a few more to do today as well as a bit more postage editing before next Tuesday.

Don't think we'll get out in the garden today either, as it looks cold, grey and damp out there from my window.

Time for another mug of tea.

poor meebo, hope things pick up for you soon. I have listed another 10 so now i am ready for housework

[buttons-and-bows]

Hope you get better soon Meebo and anyone else who is not feeling well. Going to do my relists and finish a little sweater for Sindy, not happy that my MP has been made under secretary of state for Wales so having a sulk.

Oh dear Private Meebo if it doesn't rain it pours. I'll lend you a piece of equipment so you can still shout at MIL !


The Old Soldier seems a bit brighter this morning, at least he has made an attempt to get himself dressed, so I'm hoping it will be a better day than yesterday. Took a trip to our little local pub last night to drown my sorrows and there was a police raid while we were there so that was exciting ! About three uniformed officers and someone from the licencing authority. Lol the pub is the downstairs of an old Georgian terraced house and it was packed so there was hardly any room for the police to get in !

I'm still invisible so the camouflage is working well ​(sob!)

Doesn't help that a girl i used to work with years ago who has spent years trying for a baby has just given birth to a baby boy, and he's not expected to last the rest of the week - absolutely heartbreaking.

Little one passed away today - he was only 10 days old

Annie so sorry to hear the little chap past away, hope the Mum will cope.

Sgt hope OS continues to improve, but he did what was expected & was all nice to the Dr thats what seems to happen luckly she was happy to listen to you.. Glad you had some excitement while you were out last night.

Meebo hope you will feel better soon, hope you manage to get some rest today.

We did the village market this morning, but being very overcast & cold didn't see as many as we do when its nice, as when fine the parents let the children play outside..

Hi all, sorry, been very busy. actually lost another but don't tell sarge, because I've more than made up for it. Trying to list more but it all takes time

[cornishmaid1961]

Awww that is such sad news Private Mcc2 , so awful for the parents.

Grrrr O/H has just found the Old Soldier's lunchtime antibiotic pill on the kitchen floor. He must have slipped it into his pocket instead of taking it as it's the only way it could have got there. I checked his plate after lunch to make sure he had taken it too !

Shakes head in despair and glares in the direction of Private Royster !

Good morning! Don't know if I have any voice this morning. I haven't spoken yet. Annie,it is always sad if someone dies, but we feel the sadness more when it is a little one. Sarge, I think you will have to watch OS take his medication. If he was in a home they would too. Nothing much to report, just a few more landed in the unsold folder over night, so more editing to do. I have made tea and coffee, baked a pastry case, made bread dough and covered a fruit cake with marzipan and icing. (decorating will come later) The carer wanted to be here at 5.30 as she had to be at another place at 6. She has just arrived
