I'm really looking forward to seeing how much I've made at the end of the year, especially as the things I'm selling are things I'd usually give to charity or pass on. Mick likes Marilyn Monroe, I wonder why, and he like The Seven Year Itch too, I've never seen it so I must put in on my list.Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17436932004631816039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5605977931488846865.post-82974861798051869742013-09-29T18:13:15.817+01:002013-09-29T18:13:15.817+01:00It's so easy when the challenges are something...It's so easy when the challenges are something you enjoy.

The Seven Year Itch is fab. I had quite a few on video and I noticed on amazon ones I have never seen are quite cheap so they are on my Christmas list.<br />Lisa xLisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05286339918056081955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5605977931488846865.post-41475699446437781782013-09-28T19:18:47.815+01:002013-09-28T19:18:47.815+01:00Hi Jo, I take my hat off to you that you are manag...Hi Jo, I take my hat off to you that you are managing to keep up to your monthly challenges.

It's quite time consuming listing things on Ebay, that's why I'm only doing five items each month, but can be worth it.

I think my overwhelming emotion about Daniel heading off to uni is one of pride, I'm just so so proud of him. It is an exciting chapter in his life but I know I'll miss him so much and I'm going to try not to get emotional on Sunday but I'm not sure how successful I'll be.Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17436932004631816039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5605977931488846865.post-61103369964157668342013-09-27T13:55:52.063+01:002013-09-27T13:55:52.063+01:00York isn't far - a great excuse to meet up wit...York isn't far - a great excuse to meet up with him for a meal/cuppa?

Though that's probably more to do with the fact that it's got Jack Lemmon in it - I absolutely love him. I'm a big fan of old movies, especially musicals, as my dad was a massive fan. I have extremely fond memories of watching them sat snuggled up with him on the sofa.<br />Good luck to Daniel as he heads off on a new and exciting chapter in his life.

On the other hand, my heart is skipping a beat, he's my first one to leave home so that's a little scary, though York isn't very far away from Leeds so that eases the worry a little, we're only half an hour away if he needs us. I will miss him though.Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17436932004631816039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5605977931488846865.post-33315570198566763502013-09-27T13:11:57.323+01:002013-09-27T13:11:57.323+01:00Thank you.
