Things that stress you out

Today I will be cleaning my Civic ready to advertise it for sale.

I've never had to sell a car by myself before and I'm surprised to find I am rather freaked out and stressed by the idea.

I can't decide where to advertise it, what to ask for it or anything else.

I wouldn't have expected this to bother me. I've been fine about getting a new MOT and servicing it but advertising it is causing me stress.

What stresses you that you wouldn't have expected would bother you?

I'm not even sure what's bothering me about it, tbh. It's a bizarre thing to be worried about.

When i was selling my last car, i first put it on autotrader, cost about £40, i was constantly emailed from scammers, someone wants to buy it, they will pay, get a company to pick it up, but they cant pick it up as they work out at sea.....first and last time i will use that site, but thats my own experience.

Need to know basis

All the best VV, I'm sure you'll find the right words to advertise and sell it.

As for me...whenever I try a new recipe, I always goes well and is a great success...its when I want to do it again that I get stressed. The second time is usually a disaster! but that's ok its just an obstacle, a small hurdle because I know the 3rd, 4th etc times will be good again.

Are you worried, or just sad because you've had it so long. Many memories of years with the car. Not necessarily stressed, just nostalgic.

I sold my old car on Gumtree (it was ancient and not worth very much) and I sold my pervious one on eBay (same reason but cheaper than scrapping it). I asked my brother to come round when someone was coming to view and they were both sold as seen, without a test drive. Have you got someone who could come round at the right time so you're not alone?

I get stressed traveling when I'm not in control i.e. trains/planes... making it to the station/airport in good time etc. I like being in control so tend to drive when I can.

Hmm, I don't know. That's a good point actually. Perhaps.

Toothache. It sucks all the creativity out of life and makes me want to curl up into a ball and rain brimstone on Chesterfield.

Don't most things encourage the raining of brimstone on Chesterfield?

You could always go to We Buy Any Car at Longwater Estate, Norwich. You won't get a good price but it will be quick and painless.

Have you tried my recipe yet Bambi?

Look at other adverts VV and get some ideas. I sold my old car on gumtree it was pretty straight forward in the end.

I've learnt to try not to let anything stress me, there is nearly always a solution to most problems if you look at them calmly and objectively.

The only time I've become stressed recently is when I had hassle but I found that instead of bottling things up and getting stressed, talking about it was a great relief and calmed me down

Crap directions to buildings in towns I've never been to for work meetings.

Take the wrong exit out a station and im lost.

I hate being late, rushing and turning up hot and messy.

Car clean. Me filthy, and somewhat damp around the edges.

And no charge in my sodding camera.
