Over half a million auctions at last!!!!

Right troops, I need you all working full time over the next few weeks. HQ are bulldozing the abandoned shops so the numbers are going to take a hit.

Pte. Treasures, I would give a hard stare across the Atlantic but you're somewhat forgiven for roping the whole family into the war effort.

Kpte. Meebo, we'll need lots of calories to keep up our energy levels so I've doubled the lard rations for everyone except Pte. Ntings (the sight of him without uniform is disturbing enough without him being covered in lard) and there will be double choklit rations for those who deserve it.



Well done L.Cpl. Pipeau! You must have mobilised the Foreign Legion to set up market stalls amongst the rubble that was abandoned shops. Jolly good show! There'll be double choklit rations, a case of wine and an extra smelly cheese with your dinner tonight.

So THATS where my store of lard went!!!!!!
I dont mind as it`s for a good cause but you could have asked!

I'm quite suprised that many of you young ladies havent had a go at guessing the date when we reach 888,888 members.

or are these little challenges beneath the integrity of the Intelligence Corps ?

Worry not my little slippery one, I haven't touched your lard mountain. The quartermaster converted one of the abandoned shops to a lard store and filled it up with a fresh order. Now for a bit of bribery - if you can increase your listings by 20% (up to 150) by the end of Sunday, I'll ask Gustav to fill one of the hot tubs with a fresh batch of lard just for you.

I don't think the challenge is beneath the integrity of the Intelligence Corps, I think it's more to do with being above their intelligence. *grin*

I fear you may have set a challenge I will find hard to fulfil. With all the building and house restoration, much of my hoard is in deep storage. However, all is not lost. I have indeed determined to set too and master my new listing regime. You will see by my feedback that I am not new at this online auction malarkey and my ability to perform is only in hibernation and not dead. My time is not all my own as I`m sure you are aware, but tis true that I need to slim down my hoard. This became much apparent when I was packing it all in boxes for storage.
I am not, I must admit a numbers person. I look upon quality before quantity and I do despair at some of the listings that I see appearing here. I welcome the culling of dead and redundant stores, even if listing numbers do fall. After all they are not real listings that are for sale, are they? But wait, this is not the time for this discussion.

Now I have to thank Private Meebo with doing such a sterling job with the recruitment figures, they have been very good for summer time, and as a reward I have brought back some good things for her YDC which I will list before shooting off to the Cornish outpost.

As for the rest of you, what the blerdy 'ell has been going on with all these lax defences - (being my usual subtle self I will mention no names PRIVATE TREASURES !) - I took off my holiday settings and immediately a stray bullet came flying in and hit me !

Welcome back Sgt Major, thought it was a bit quiet round here lately.
