The best way to predict your future is to create it

YapYapOK UK Free Classifieds Alexa global 206k  UK free ads 15k

The YapYapOK UK Free Classifieds has the best global rank so far, but we have dropped a bit in the UK.  So where are we getting the extra traffic to make up for the UK deficit as well as the global increase.  The answer is Australia.  There have been a number of Free Ads published from Oz but we have not marketed over there at all. 

We had a bit of a catastrophe this week.  On an economy drive we have down sized from a 2 car family to a 1 car family.  I work from home and frankly we have little need for a second car.  Until it broke down, late on thursday not tooo far from home.  Fortunately we had breakdown cover or dinner would have been very late.

The earliest we could get it seen was Friday afternoon, and although the diagnosis was not too bad we can not get the part until Monday.  My son is in a golf tournament today and we were hoping to take him and his friends out on Sunday.  We also are in dire need of some groceries.

My husband did a quick ring around to see if there were any "spare" cars and within minutes someone who I have only met once rang back saying that he had a spare, he'd drive it the 30 minutes to our house after the football if we could bring him back.

So we are once again mobile!  Very recently this mans mother passed away.  Since my husband is semi retired he agreed to cover this mans work as a favour for another friend who could not manage a double round.  We decided that we could not take any payment, sometimes you have to reach out and support fellow human beings and prop them up when they need it.  In my experience life is tough enough and friends are key to our survival.

Well karma came back to us once again.  In difficult times you can easily sort the wheat from the chaff.  Economically challenging times will show those who take in order to survive, it also shows those who give. They do it out with a pure heart, they survive but with friends and integrity intact

So the boys have left me for the day whilst they while the hours away on the golf course.  I, on the other hand have a UK Free Classifieds to promote.
