    I actually enjoy this type of video more! You don't need to do the type of videos you did before, but just recording your day to day life is interesting and good enough for us!

    The no logo is the reason the patagonia sold low money. Most people wear brands for fashion - why would you spend big on a patagonia piece when nobody knows its patagonia, it could just be a cheapo one from primark.

    You should get an editor, would take a little off your workload, might be able to upload more and increase the add revenue and offset the cost.

    Great video George I like this shows more than just packing once you get a new shed at home will save so much time traveling to the unit you said 20 mins that's 40 mins lost everytime , new shed is the way forward and you'll have lights in there to work slightly later

    i don't do the free postage any more, customers are so thick ive had several people comment "well you get the postage for free so why can't you drop the price"....jesus...one woman TOLD ME that first class post was only 75p ...she must have been looking at stamp prices...the customer only looks at the item price so adding the postage separate seems to sell better

    As you have expanded your work load ,its important to develop the most efficient way to manage your time. Identify what is going smoothly and what needs to change. Longterm this will be beneficial to your health combined with the commitments off a young family. It is good to also ask for support, consider, and discuss what would change look like.?As you are highly motivated and have good organisational skills you will then be in the best possible position to develop a more up-to-date operational approach and to be good to your future self as you travel on your personal journey .
    to assess a more efficient way of dealing with this workload .

    buy a portable charger, that can power laptops etc and you can plug your thermal printer into that. Had to do that a for a few months from my storage unit. AND you can power USB lights from them.

    Don't worry about the videos, just upload whenever you can. Family comes first 👍

    Just keep on keeping on, this is why im part time as i just dont have the time to do it full time at the moment, frustrating though. I was wondering about free postage as now Ebay are prioritising those listings aren’t they? I do free post on Etsy for those reasons but it can leave you out of pocket so i dont like it really!

    It does get easier George with the kids, but as they get older there’s a range of completely different issues that come along. Mine are grown up now but I went through university when they were aged from 2 to 6. Hang on in there George you are doing great! â€Ķâ€Ķ.. I was parked in that exact spot in Lidl car park today 😂

Apparently there is a few more worth grading from that game, not sure what ones. Mike Tyson back of his head is ÂĢ400 but very rare.

    I completely understand how you feel. Two teenagers (no toddler, but other stuff going on too), and life is so hectic. I don't really have a solution, just wanted to say I understand and so do many parents who are just hanging on by their fingertips.
    It's okay to accept that there's just not enough time in the day to do everything you feel you're supposed to do. Say no to things and peope who are a drain on your time and energy. The more effecient you are at getting things done, the more things people (and you) will expect you to do.
    Try to get some time to yourself (and same for your wife) where you can just relax knowing your spouse has everything covered.
    Maybe extend your dispatch times a couple of days, so you can batch them into bigger batches and save yourself a trip to the lockup once a week. Likewise anything else you can batch so you're not constantly rushing from one task to another.
    Chin up!
