I haven't used skype to call in ages - actually I am wondering if anyone has had any success in getting credit left in skype refunded to themself?

The dodo is an extinct flightless bird that was endemic to the island of Mauritius, which is east of Madagascar in the Indian Ocean. The dodo's closest relative was the also-extinct and flightless Rodrigues solitaire.
Ebay in its early days had a SKYPE Feature called ,Ebay A Go Go which will remind you to keep bidding when you are outbidded!
