awww thanks girls for allowing me to boast :0) can't bare to leave that as the latest post though so need to replace it cos i'm too embaressed to leave it their (gosh i must have soooo many issues on soooo many levels with achievment!)
sooooo, today i have been warn out to a frazzle! me and my pal have been bulk buying kiddies jewellery then hawking round craft fairs etc! we have always done ok, usually taking between 60 and 80 squid each time and its been great! an afternoon childfree, sitting behind a table with a cuppa and a cake :0) today though was our first school christmas fair, omg it was maaaaaaad we took £180.00!(had to pay a tennner for the table though)can you believe that?! and our most expensive item is a bracelet at 1.80 everything else ranges from 25p and we have lots of things at 1.00 mood rings always go well, but we also sold loooooooooooooads of magnetic earings mostly to boys?!! so we were at school from 10-1 and then had to hike it over to a villlage a half hour away for a 2 .00 start where we took another 65.00! , i am knackered though now, this week we have 2 more school fairs and then another tabletop sale on sat. thoroughly reccomend it to anyone! our last one is the 15th dec and then i think i might take maternity leave lol before starting on the spring and summer fairs! just hope we have enough stock to last us! Graham says i am turning into del boy as our garage is full of boxes and envelopes from china (and england too!) we still dont have a proper name for ourselves so any suggestions would be most appreciated :0)

First of all - wooooohooooo for your clever brainboxes phil! You're so entitled to have a proud mummy moment, bloomin eck - that's a fab achievement! Do they know how chuffed you are with them? Did you tell them everything after the parents evening was over??? I bet their heads couldn't fit thru their bedroom doors!
Secondly, well done on selling so much! It's always a bit of a hindrance having to make back your table money isn't it but it sounds like you stormed it, my SIL sends jewellry over from Hong Kong but I've not really got the contacts to sell it to, but you've got the right idea. No idea on names, maybe a play on both of your names? You'll have to do a brainstorm sesh over your next cup of tea and slice of cake!
Blimey! I know where to come when I need a loan :)
Don't knacker yourself out though love! It sounds like proper hard work!
