Maybe its just that he is quite short, so long socks go up higher. If i wore 'long' socks they could look like anklets If they are tights though, maybe they are in fact Mantyhose, which i believe was either a US or Italian idea.

Maybe thats a niche market here and i'll add that as a future line hehe

Just in case you thought I had forgotten my canteen duties - I haven't. But I need to go out this morning, so getting the uniform up to scratch took a bit of time. I'll be reporting back later

Morning - internet connection absolute carp - keep losing the signal so no Radio 2
Hope to start some new listings later once my other jobs are all done - walking the dog, putting the washing out on the line, hoovering,, etc. etc.

Ooooh er .... glad you have found some to match your uniform Private Darth !



Another lovely sunny day here in Bath the listing numbers are good and all is right with the world .... well apart from me misplacing my cadets again. One is at the doctors I know but goodness knows where the other one is as his bed hasn't been slept in. There seems to be a lot of interest in the halls of residence at Bath university at the moment so I'm guessing that's where he might be found !!!

New recruits :- 679

Member numbers :- 884,699

At the present rate we should hit 1 million members in October.

Does anyone know why we get such wild swings on ebid's number of listings.

Up 100,000 down 100,000.

I know that ebid have regular cleanouts of redundant listings.
But then we get 100,000 listings the next day.

Eurgh! Wouldn't be seen in those orange trousers..

No items lost
Few new ones and the relists done, so currently at 275

Got loads to do but my back is preventing me from doing it and I can't take any pain killers as if you remember I came out in a drug reaction ( thank god it wasn't the urso) and I don't see the consultant till may, so will have to just do a few new listings a day. Only one break in to report last night and already replaced, now off to look for something meebo had that I wanted ( bet it's been stolen already )
