I've spent the day thus far cleaning out my loft which for the most part has been exhausting is there was about 7 tonnes of pure junk there.

It was a little video game nostalgia trip for me too as I found an Amstrad, Commadore 64, Spectrum ZX, Megadrive II and Playstation 1, ooh and broken garden furnature.

The oddest find has to be someone elses stamp collection, a man called Stanley Gibbon's, who presumably lived here once, took it upon himself to hide his stamp collection in the space between the loft and the second floor ceiling - but I got it! To eBay we go...

I've also found manuals for Adobe Photoshop 6.0, Adobe InDesign an a bunch of other Adobe products - anyone want them?

Oh and does an employer legally have to pay you more for working a bank holiday or not? I've been asked to work Monday, see, but I dont know if its financially worth it. £4.50 an hour versus sitting on my ass at home is a no-contest really on a bank holiday.

Can I have to manuals for PhotoShop and InDesign please.

Yep, go for the money, unless you have something good planned for the day.

You should get double-pay, or at least time and a half for working BH.

At my place they give you an extra holiday day when you work bank holidays.

Oh, what games/apps did you have with your ZX? I might consider buying it.

I've no idea what was with the ZX, I think it's gone into "the pile" in my driveway to be collected by the skip. I'm not sure if there was anything with it to be honest.

Yeah of course - they're quite heavy though so I'll have to ask you to pay for P&P if thats ok.

I went into my loft today. Saw Platoon for the C64. Laughed. Then came back down. Covered in dust. The. End.
