Ok, I'm stunned right now. I just came back to MyLot this morning after having been gone for several weeks and started a discussion and answered a few discussions and news articles. One of the discussions was on ppl...

Vicstar I tried to look back at the original but have not been able to track it down. Seems to me that the priorities of those checking out postings (assuming it was one such person) are a little out of kilter! Stand firm in what you believe in, as that is the only...

I just wondered whether anyone out there has experience of marketing hand crafted things that they have made? If, how have they got on? Has it been a profitable experience, or not?

Vicstar Wow! Thanks both of you. You have made me think as your experiences are different from what I had imagined. I have yet to work out what the effect of the slump in the value of the £ would be if considering marketing overseas, but I imagine it might end up...

I just wondered if anyone has any experience of using their writing skills to generate money in a systematic way. Other than through MyLot, of course. If so, which methods have they found to be the best earners?

Vicstar Thanks - lots of helpful information. Now I've just got to find the time and motivation. But with all of your help I should be able to select the right places to try with better effect!

My cat died a few months ago. Or rather, I feel like I killed my cat. Actually she had a kidney problem and was obviously not enjoying life too much. So I had to make the decision to have her put down. Now I feel bad about it, as...

Vicstar Thank you Sid, I think I did the right thing too, really, It doesn't stop the thoughts and I guess that is just part of grieving. So, no more "torturing myself" (thinks ...was this a bit overstated?!!) In some ways I guess we are lucky to be able to do this...

Vicstar Thanks Autumnrose. I will feel better when the rose bush puts out a few leaves and hopefully a few flowers as well. I think I need the feeling of new life being regenerated from old life. It is comforting somehow. I may even do my own inscription: I have done...

Vicstar That rminds me of a cat we had years ago: for domestic reasons my family had to split into two groups and one of the cats stayed with one group, the others with the other group. When we then re-established ourselves as one group we just could not get the cats...

Vicstar Thanks Shadocat. I know it is easy to hang on too long and your words make me realise the other side of the coin that I would have faced in that situation. I know really that it was the right thing to do in the long term, but it still takes time to really...

I have made the decision today to stop smoking. This is one of the goals I hope to achieve this year. I have been smoking for about 14 years and smoking that first cigarette 14 years ago was possibly one of the worse mistakes I...

I love fried cabbage. I fried some earlier for lunch. I normally just chop up my cabbage and fry it in a little vegetable oil. I like to add a little salt and pepper too. You can tell by the picture that I like my cabbage almost...

Does anyone know why supermarkets dont sell vegetables loose, with brown paper bags to put them in rather than plastic bags? I guess the answer has to do with marketing, but I for one would be only to happy to go back to a DIY...

Is it simply the number of posts you make or is it more complicated? I am asking as I think I have made quite a few more posts than the number after my name but I haven/t yet worked it out. Have you?

Vicstar Thanks. Yep, I know I did not really kill her. And I know that if it was me, I would be glad if someone put me out of misery, rather than leaving me to suffer. I had to make the same choice for my other cat only about a year before that. She had a tumour of...
