.............Oh What Fun It Is Too Ride On Satan's Winter Sleigh!!!

Hey, I'm Mouseface. Xmas Smile

I have now managed to, ahem, stop adding to my current weight, so I'm just going to sit the winter out.

Come the New Year, I'm kicking ass. As I am sure the other LIGHTer ladies will be too.

Maybe. Hopefully. If I can convince them too.

Anyway, come meet them all........ and feel free to join in!!

No not yet, DH needs to sort it tomorrow while I swan off for a coffee with BaroqueAroundTheClock. Xmas Grin

This time tomorrow though, pops will officially be a 'big girl' Sad

TheMousefaceBeforeChristMouse · 16/12/2010 23:26

Aaahhhh, how is she? Assuming that I think it is who I think it is?? Xmas Grin

Aww babes. It's so hard when they grow up. I was sat here tonight thinking my God, next May Nemo will be two but he's still so small and diddy. Like your DD.

She looks younger because she's wee. And gorgeous. As is DS. You do produce lovely children.

Time for another???

BrianAndHisBalls · 17/12/2010 07:48

went for diaz, painkillers, covonia and ads all washed down with baileys last night Blush did the trick about midnight Grin

whats up with the one they call the lushest lady of oireland then??

BrianAndHisBalls · 17/12/2010 07:51

im on £499.88!! on ebay Grin 12p to go Grin

SantaIsAnAnagramOfSatan · 17/12/2010 08:00

ah but what's your profit brian? you bought some of the stuff to sell didn't you?

morning - sounds like a good cocktail though what is covonia? the word gets sung in my head by a man with a fakey italian sounding voice as if it's from an advert.

SantaIsAnAnagramOfSatan · 17/12/2010 08:01

ha!

googled it.

my brain has interesting storage facilities Grin

BrianAndHisBalls · 17/12/2010 08:05

disgusting cough medicine that makes you want to vom.

Profit, will go look, hang on.

BrianAndHisBalls · 17/12/2010 08:12

£153 was cost of dolls plus cushion covers, rest of stuff is all dd1/2 clothes, toys, things lying round house, so profit so far £340 but then you've got to take ebay fees off so probably around £280 pure profit.

Just been looking around bedroom and found 4 Isabella Oliver dresses/tops so they'll be going on in January Grin

Lelli Kellys went for £17

Profit on etsy/facebook for dangly things (!!!) is about £500 after fees/costs of materials.

So all lovely but about 75p an hour Grin

Oh and its bloody snowing.

SantaIsAnAnagramOfSatan · 17/12/2010 08:16

how much did dolls plus cushion covers go for?

SantaIsAnAnagramOfSatan · 17/12/2010 08:20

i should do ds's coats and some clothes bundles just to have a practice run and see what it's like.

the tory wants my coffee table but said it like 'let me know if you want some money for it' which made me a bit uncomfortable because does that mean he's expecting me to say oh no just have it? it's a good table, i paid £60 for it at an auction with not many buyers, new they're hundreds of pounds. what do i do?

(other than offer to swap it for sperm Wink )

the thing i wonder is how do you work out how much postage of a bundle of clothes is going to be? do you just estimate and add a bit on for safety?

BrianAndHisBalls · 17/12/2010 08:20

god now you're asking, hang on

SantaIsAnAnagramOfSatan · 17/12/2010 08:21

sorry - making you do a break down of your sales Grin

you should know though so you can figure if it's worth it in future and what had a good margin and what less so etc.

£304 from the dolls and cushion covers alone and there's about another 5 that are finishing tonight tomorrow. I think profit is actually about £320 because i incorporate fees in my p&p costs to a certain extent and have no packaging costs as my dad gives me all the jiffy bags/bubble wrap.

I can talk you through ebay on fb if you like, best times to start/end auctions etc.

Best thing to do is look at 'completed listings' on there to see what similar bundles of clothes are going for. This will also show you what people are charging postage wise. You need to charge for postage plus cost of you getting it to post office/bubble wrap/brown paper etc. To see how much it will cost weigh it and go to the royal mail website to check.

BrianAndHisBalls · 17/12/2010 08:31

i hate it when people say that! 'if you want some money let me know' arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh its a minefield with that!!

dee - i love you.

saf - ebay runs reports for me, so you enter cost price (if there was one), postage actual cost and the spreadsheet thingy does you a profit.

It is difficult though because I sold 2 identical things, 1 went for £10.50 and 1 went for 99p Confused its just luck sometimes.

right shopping this morning, probable child rearing this afternoon.

is tory a serious contender saf? or not?

SantaIsAnAnagramOfSatan · 17/12/2010 08:31

so about £150 profit on the bought to sell stuff - which is 100%. worth it then.

yes that'd be good brian. if you could.

bubs what will happen about your missed exam? have you talked to them?

SantaIsAnAnagramOfSatan · 17/12/2010 08:33

i think he's doubtful in terms of romance but in terms of sperm donor he's a contender. lord knows how you approach someone for their sperm though!

the table thing is awkward - the 'if' is a bit carp. he earns about 100k a year but i now feel bad about asking him for £50 for huge solid wood coffee table Confused

Morning all.

I'm off out for coffee in a bit.

Saf, will you get pregnant already, so I don't have to?

BrianAndHisBalls · 17/12/2010 09:27

will you both hurry up so i can flog you all my maternity gear?? Grin

i sometimes think i'd like another but a. i can't cope with the 2 i've got Grin b. we couldn't afford it and c. id have to have injections again and probably be in a whelchair a lot sooner this time.

i'll live through you two instead Grin
