I'm in bed, taking my tablet - 19 Mar 2026 - (1,456 words) - Jaynes Baby Bank

I'm in bed, taking my tablet.
It's lovely with the sun shining through.
It really is.
But I've got to go in because I've got 300 VHSs to price today.
I won't be long now.
I'll be in.
I can't... I'm not getting any messages on my phone.
I can see people are messaging me.
I can't open them and I can't respond.
Every time I respond I'm getting... I'm not even getting a red message.
I'm getting a yellow.
Sometimes because our account is so big and it's monetized.
Sometimes then they just shut it down to protect the account sort of thing.
But I haven't had any messages.
I've got upload ID or anything.
I did yesterday.
So maybe they've just shut it down for a bit.
I don't know.
If it's urgent, message Daniel.
And if it's private, message Daniel.
Or pop in and see us if you don't want to put anything on Facebook.
I should be in around 10.11 because I've got some cabinets to pick up as well.
So if you're in the market for bedside cabinets today's your day.
Or VHS's.
I'll be in.
I think we're both going to be doing late night.
He did late night yesterday.
But we had him with health and safety come in.
We didn't know what we were doing and what have you.
Because they were there for ages yesterday.
Oh God.
I couldn't get rid of them.
Might as well put some bloody stock on.
They were there that long.
But yeah.
So I don't know what's going on with my messenger.
I'll be there.
Aim for about 10.11 today.
Because I've got another lady I'm supposed to be picking up on.
But she hasn't gone back to me.
I'm going to go from there.
Alright.
I shouldn't be too long now.
I can't take my tablets like I used to anymore.
I went right yesterday.
I went at my mother's.
She did me some toast.
And I had to stick it back up.
Perhaps it was gluten.
I don't know.
She had a bit of seeded toast.
And then when I come home I had to take my asthma pump.
And that's only as and when I need it.
That is.
But I felt better after I took the asthma pump.
So...
I don't know what's wrong with me.
I don't know what's wrong with me.
But it could be like allergies now.
Because I suffer with a fever and everything.
And it could be allergies and dust and pollen.
I don't know.
Sun's out now.
I'm used to managing the olden days with all these allergies.
And without all these pills and everything.
So I've just taken my tablet now.
I'm half dressed and then I'll be in the car.
Gone.
I've got to pick up some stuff.
Daniel's got to go to the bank today.
Because we've got to bank the money from the collection pots.
So my mum and dad's doing that now.
I don't know how much because I don't know if he can message me.
I think he said it was about 500 from the collection pots.
All together.
So he's got to get our bank.
That's for the food bank.
And she's got the money bag.
So they do it together.
There's three of them there.
They count it together.
And then we should be in.
We might stay later.
I was going to stay later yesterday.
But they threw me off yesterday.
I was going to get the videos done yesterday.
So I'm behind now a day with them.
I can send them pictures and videos of the bloody shops.
Do you know what I mean?
They don't need to come in.
Anyway, they've come in.
They've passed us.
So don't worry about it.
I've got a trinket trade box.
I've had it for nearly a week up in Caerphilly.
And I've ordered one for Pontypool.
But I haven't filled it yet.
So bear with me because we've had everything going on.
I've got to get some oaks in it to hang the key rings up and things like that.
What else was I going to say?
I don't know.
Yeah, keep praying for this sun guys.
Because I can get the gazebos out and things like that in the gardens then.
I could do with a volunteer today.
If anybody wants to come in and volunteer and tidy up the baby clothes and things like that today.
I'm happy for you to come in.
And have like a trial or just see how you get on.
And Dan could do with a couple.
He's sorted out the big cage of clothes.
He stayed there last night and did it.
So that cage of textiles.
So they're all bagged up ready to go as job lots.
Got a lady coming in Friday.
He will sell it as a job lot beforehand.
If she can't come in Friday.
But so far I think he sold two.
No, I think he sold three bags because they were three for 20.
And that's all he sold.
And then all the like what we would call our pound clothes.
So Primark, New Look, Dorothy Perkins, Peacock, stuff like that.
Jeans, because jeans don't sell well.
Unless they're like...
Posh ones you know.
Any jeans we get we just chuck in usually.
Jumpers always sell well.
So there won't be any jumpers in there.
So he's bagged them up.
So he's got a cage now.
So now what he's going to do today is stack up some of the toys.
Because we've got tons of toys in in Pontypool.
Stack them up in the cage.
But they will be still available.
Alright, he's going to stack them up in boxes in there.
But he isn't in yet.
So aim for our past 10, 11 we are today.
Because he's got to do the banking.
Because I don't like it sitting around.
It's quite a lot this time.
But I haven't had a chance.
He hasn't told me from where or what pots.
Because he can't message me.
He may well have told me.
So I don't know.
I haven't been able to update.
So I can always update you whenever day with that.
But that's brilliant isn't it?
I don't know if we are going to be doing Easter eggs.
There's a lot of people, a lot of charities and groups already starting to ask for Easter eggs.
I don't know if we are going to do them.
Because obviously we are going for a more multicultural approach.
So I won't be ordering Easter bunnies in.
Or anything like that.
Usually we buy eggs.
But we have been donating some in the past.
But I haven't asked anybody for eggs yet.
I might approach a supermarket and say we are trying to do something multicultural.
So if you have got anything multicultural.
You can colour in books and stuff instead.
But I will let you know guys.
We will do something.
Perhaps we will do a spring disco.
Because it's more multicultural.
I think.
And I think that's the way it should be now.
Anybody who is just promoting Easter.
You need to be really careful with that.
If you are just promoting one thing with your charity.
You need to be careful.
Because you could be discriminating a group of people.
We have always been quite multicultural.
We have always done things.
Don't forget we have got colouring competitions for Ramadan.
I have lost my glasses now.
Oh no.
I am blind now today.
There you go.
I am going to go now because I am going to have this last tablet.
This is my worst one.
It is my stomach one.
We are having a wet room.
They have been out today now.
And they are going to do a full wet room.
I am pleased with that.
You said it is going to take about 5-10 days.
But they are not doing it for the next.
It is going to be at least a month.
We will give you an update progress with that.
But because of other things now.
Like having epilepsy.
They are not going to be doing my knee problem any time soon.
Because of the lack of concrete and stuff.
To do the knees now apparently.
So I was on the waiting list.
And I was having pre-ops.
I am still on the waiting list.
But they have pulled all the pre-ops now.
So that is gutting.
Because before Christmas.
I thought I was going to be in.
But I am not now.
So anyway I am going to get going now guys.
Because we are running late.
