5,441 thus far.
Today I went to Liverpool with Auntie Irene which was (mostly) yay, especially as Hawkins-Bazaar has reopened which is shiny and good, though unfortunately AI does not agree and thus my visit there was shorter than wished. Nontheless I made a good start on Christmas presents including one rather good one for my Mum :) and some other bits and pieces. I got myself a bat-shaped biscuit cutter reduced in the Lakeland shop and a lot of Christmassy socks in Primark, as well as some winter t-shirts (Only 3 and a jumper, I was very restrained). It was a good day out.
The beginning of this month a lot of stuff has gone wrong- lights breaking and the roof is just...well it's very bad. Many leaking and such. But there's a man coming to assess it tomorrow evening so at least I can hope something will get done about it soon. My ebay sales aren't doing so well this time around, I made a profit of £3 from my last batch of things but if things don't sell soon I have a horrible suspicion that the profit will be lessened by covering the insertion fees of the second batch. Most annoying, particularly with the comics. With some of the other stuff, like old computer stuff, I'm going by the premise of 'if it doesn't sell, I bin it/give it into the shop' but with the comics I can't bear to do either of these things, which means they sit around until I try again, because I can't bear the thought of them damaged or not going to good homes. Particularly the signed ones or the really good ones that I just happen to have by accident and don't collect, but other people would surely appreciate.
I didn't go the comic shop today. I may have to start practicing what I preach and buying issues on ebay. I have done it before, it's just I kind of have charity-based plans for my profits for the next couple of months and I don't really want to feel guilty and spend it all on more comics when, until more sell, there's no sodding room.
Head is tired and dizzy now so I suppose I'll have to go to bed soon. HH work tomorrow. Boo.
