Default AD: Ebay and Justbeads auctions

Hi All

I have some auctions running at ebay this week - polymer, ceramic and
lampwork. Plus an auction at Justbeads, but I warn you - I was in a
silly mood when I wrote that listing !

Please visit my site www.ejrbeads.co.uk and click on the ebay or
justbeads links there to see the auctions

Many thanks
Emma

Aren't you concerned that your "Broken Heart" auction on Just Beads will
turn of bidders?

It's "losing", not "loosing", Emma dear. (In your Justbeads auction text.)

It's "losing", not "loosing"

See (to be really annoying....)
"losing" is when you lose something. Lose a contest, or your purse, or
whatever. Pronounced "Luz".

"Loosing" is when you turn something loose on something else, or if something
becomes loose (like your jeans are now loose on your ass -- what a great
feeling!). If you loose your talent upon the unsuspecting world, for instance.
Pronounced "Lusss".

See?

Thanks for the grammar lesson! Although I am a Brit so our
pronounciations would be a teeny but different anyway if we are gonna
get *really* annoying!

I did just try to get into justbeads again to see how I could edit the
typo. But I don't think that I can unfortunately as I was using my own
template and cannot see a way to edit or replace that now that the
auction is running and has bids.

I think I am gonna just have to let it run its course with the
annoying typo and live with it.

Nope - not really.

I think most people can tell it is very tongue in cheek.

Can't spend your whole life worrying how other's will perceive you
anyway. Just gotta get on do your thing, true to your own self, and
hope that someone, somewhere gets your vibe I guess.

Yep. I thought that calling one set of my beads 'More D*mn Beads' might
make some people upset but it's all in fun and hardly anything more than
amusing.

The name was really well-received, many people thought it was a real laugh.

I think that was an inspired name. After all, is that just what our
other halves always say each time another beady envelope drops through
the door!

Ok, so probably not Mike, seeing as he is a bead-head too ;-)

He thinks I'm being unfaithful!
