It's been 10 days since I last saw my mobile. A Saturday Night. My Girlfriend Text Me to say she was coming home... Since then it has mysteriously dissappeared.

I realised it's dissappearence pretty early on, so confident that it is in the house. Having said that, I did go to the skip on the Sunday, so I am concerned that it's in Land Fill or being Shipped to China for disposal overseas...

The strange thing is I've not really missed it... At all (Other than for it's use as Watch and Alarm Clock)!

In fact, I'd swear Rach, my Girlfriend, has missed it more than I have; as I'm now not immediately accessible :-)

I'm begining to feel quite liberated. I don't need to reply to random texts or read the crappy jokes that seem to be doing the rounds... Or speak to the dozen Call Centres that phone every week since I registered my Business on Yell (Mental Note to anyone wanting to shoe case their business: DO NOT USE ANY OF THE FREE SITE, SUCH AS YELL or APPLEGATE TO PROMOTE YOU COMPANY, NO CUSTOMERS PHONE YOU JUST PEOPLE TRYING TO SELL YOU RUBBISH)

So, do I get another phone? Does that mean I have to get another number an in turn send over 100 messages telling my contacts that it's changed?

I've just received over 1000 Safety Lifting Hooks in various shapes and sizes.

2 Main Styles:

1. Latchlok in 1 and 1.5 Tonne SWL
2. ROPEQUIP in 1, 2.5 and 4 Tonne SWL.
1. I even have a few with unused with Original Test Certificates

I'm actually able to spend a bit more time focussing (Is that spelt correctl?) on the Shop rather than the house, we've finally moved into.

Please help me earn enough money to help pay the mortgage?

Thanks for all the welcoming messages...

I've been a bit, well really quiet since my first Blog. I'm afraid I've been tied up with Mortgages and House Insurance as my Girlfriend and I have been trying to buy or first home together.

Since putting in the oofer in November, we finally got the keys this week. Christ, how long do these things take??? I'm never moving, that's for sure.

Business has been good and a few tweaks here and there have been seeing increased visits and purchases, so hoorah!

I thought I'd let evenone know about a free Widget I stumbled across whilst surfing the other day, Check this out:

http://www.web-d.biz/RANKoneBay.htm

A brilliant way to showcase your items and for free too.

As you'll guess from the titles, I'm somewhat new to this Blog game.

Having got back from this weekends eBay University I'm keen to put all that I learnt into practise.

So this morning I've:

1. Optimised my Website for Search Engines
2. Written some listings in HTML and linked to images via URL (I can't beleive I hadn't gone down that route earlier!!!)
3. Started writing Blogs

I, a long with every other seller I'm sure, am trying to boost my internet exposure and drive more traffic to my Shop and Website.

So, if you get a chance to check either of them out, I'd appreciate your comments!
