Sitting in KFC in Bristol killing a few hours before going to the B&B by the airport.

Just saw a new feature on PP, you can now be billed 14 days later after buying an item. They pay the seller straight away but you are not charged until you receive it and are happy with the result.

Neat........

Not if you're a seller!

Paypal / eBay have gone too far imo. Selling on eBay is now such a buyers game that it's hardly worth bothering with.

They now give buyers the option to print their own return postage labels, paid directly from the sellers paypal account with no prior authorisation from the buyer, and of course, for some time now side with the buyer so much that it must be very, very easy to end up with your eBay item AND a full refund, with the seller left with nothing to do but moan.

Amongst others, plus Iberian Bellotta Reserva hams, Canadian smoked streaky bacon, Ox tongues and cheeks, and my latest favorite, beef back ribs slow roasted for 8 hours.

All the every day ordinary items.

Lunch at KFC, pint at Benny's. Nowhere near the B&B for a pint or food, but walked too much today so happily crashing out on the bed and watching TV.

Will have a mega breakfast at 0800 then catch the bus to Bath. Keith is picking me up there so should be away around midday. Stopping at Stephens at Lesmahgo for a break and a coffee, then home. M6 was closed for 24hrs on Tues/Wed, so if anybody hears of any nasties on my route home, could they please give me a bell on 07961 591592.

Cheers
