I'm trapped here for the time being at least.

Why does no-one ever buy my useless shite?
My biggest sellers at the moment are rollerball refills and multicore solder.

Not that I'm complaining, mind. They're easy to post and don't cost much to buy in, but I've had to shelve a load of useless buggery that's just not selling. There's only so many times you can drop the prices before you're effectively paying someone to take it away for you.

I sat by the window because I was well excited but then all you can see is fucking sand and water hammering against the perspex and it's noisy as fuck and I didn't like it.
