The shift change at work has happened, and the department I work in has now been reduced from 5 members to just 2, of which I’m one of them.
One of my colleagues has retired, rather than face signing on, and the other two have been laid off.
Finished. The end of a five year chapter [...]

Hello Keith, it’s Paul writing to you.
Oh, I know you can’t read this message, but I’m going to write it anyway. I just wasn’t to know that the last time I saw you when you came to see us with your wife that it would be the verty last time ever.
A great shame Keith, because [...]

The stormy, cold and wet weather we’re having this week is preventing me from working the markets. Although I could work the markets of course, I’m deciding not to because it’s pointless, people won’t walk around them in the rain. There’s no point in me standing in the middle of a field for hours at [...]

Regular readers will know I’m aiming for a £30,000 income this year as a half way target to my actual long term target of £60k income per year.
I’ve now been on this highly focussed, highly targeted programme of mine for exactly 257 days, and I’ve just cracked £20k - in fact, at the end of [...]

Seemingly forever, carrying on my debt free quest continued today as I did another market, this time it was in a village called Snettisham. A beautiful, hot sunny day with clear blue skies that were responsible both for my incredible tan and a severe thirst problem!
I took just £22.50 in takings this morning, but together with [...]

Carrying on with the battle against debt! Ebay sales this week haven’t been all that bad, really, although, after having invested money in getting stocks of software programs, I’m a bit disappointed that sales have dropped off again.
Been busy all this week so far, Tuesday, my first (half) day off after finishing nights I did [...]

I’m pleased I’ve cracked the £13,000 income mark, and with two days still to go until the end of this month, it’s looks like I’ll be earning a minimum of £26,500 by December 31st. And i’m sure that, somehow, I’ll earn the other £4,500 to make my years income £30,000 for 2009. This will be [...]

And, there you have it - 14 streams of recurring income that will serve me for years to come. I’ve just published - and ISBN’ed my fourteenth book, so in a few weeks time, that’s another two books on the International Bookseller’s catalouges - including Amazon.
By far, it’s the Guide To Woodturning Book that’s proving [...]

Today’s been really really busy. And frustrating. And stressful.
I must admit I’m not very good at dealing with the stress - caused by constant interuptions, and, more often than not, everything happening all at once.
So, I’m glad today’s my last day shift. over the last three days I’ve had to deal with school trips, the [...]

Back at work, dayshift number 2 of 3. That Dropshipper company has not replied to the Paypal dispute notices, so I guess they’re waiting for the full 20 days until Paypal rips the money out of their account to refund me.
If you’re intending using Dropshipping services to build your business up, just be careful [...]
