It's week 6 trillion of the summer holidays. The end isn't in sight. Can I ebay them?!

DD1 is upstairs in her room on the computer after being cranky all last night following her return home from a sleepover weekend at a friends. She's overtired I suspect she was hungover yesterday and grouchy and has yelled at everyone. I don't think she's touched any school work all holiday.

DD2 is at a ballet summer school and will come home tired and cranky with more washing.

DD3 is in town with a friend after cleaning me out of all cash in my purse and moaning that I never give her any money. She's informed me that this has been a boring holiday despite a holiday abroad, her ballet summer school, numerous gymnastics camps and a stream of sleepovers and friends over.

DD4 has just spilt orange nail varnish on her cream carpet.

I still have to do the back to school shop for shoes, bits of uniform, stationary..

Buyer to collect?!

Great idea- but I won't be buying!!

You haven't made them sound very appealing to a prospective buyer.

Sorry I'm too busy listing mine on ebay to buy yours!

Make sure you start the bidding low and don't accept returns! Good luck.

I'm selling the cat (with optional mouse heads that he keeps hiding behind the washing machine).

BOGOF?

What about putting them on Freecycle.

You could exchange them for something else.

It's illegal. Try free cycle or Gumtree...

I do believe because mine are currently on ebay for that amount that you can now start auctions at 1p!

I would also offer to deliver within a 150 mile radius

I've planned the advert:

For sale, child aged 13, adept at arguing, texting and being sarcastic, a must have accessory for your home. When you take home DD2 you won't know how you ever survived without a snappy, hormonal teenager in your home!

Any takers?

And Buy Two Get One Free! If you get the essential DD1 and 2 models, you get a free 5yo boy thrown in, a whole new level of stick loving, dog poo sniffing and willy song singing to complete your home.
